Release date: 11th December 2008

Excited? I sure am! *prays for Caramelldansen*

[Hardrockfoo]

is the release date America or japan

[madbikes]

Most likely Japan.

I'm pretty sure everyone is anticipated to know how are we going to play the Wii version. I guess Namco will still keep their mouth tight although they announced it.

This is relatively minor information, but for those who don't know, Namco has a Donder Page in Chinese.

[flyboy87]

We have several options when playing Taiko Wii.

1) Tatakon wired to the Wii as a GC control (hit the Taiko using the Bachi)
2) Wii Remote with Classic control (just like what normal buttons do)
3) Wiimote with Nunchuck (swing when you hit Don, use the B, Z button for Kat)

Of course, there are just my assumptions.

[Gosha]

Found some pics of it...

I'm happen is actually uses a drum.

OMG! 70 songs! ILU Bandai Namco!

Yay, for Tatakon love!

[flyboy87]

Confirmed song list updated. Taiko Wii offers 70 songs!

Also as seen, in two player mode, a player can each play at seperate difficulties. That's certainly a neat thing to add.

More screenies from Famitsu

[MechaGai]

Amazing. I said that there'd be a drum. :3 How could it not?

It's like one of the most epic things to connect to a Wii Remote.

[flyboy87]

Aside from 70 songs bundled and drum, which is good... but doesn't something else bother you?

This isn't like traditional Taiko. You have Kame and other characters rolling the scroll that contains the notes.

Any thoughts about this? I think it's different - but I would like the arcade/PS2/PSP style better, where you have the drum with the hit numbers. Not to say it's bad or anything... but it's different... ^^;;

Does any of you think it offers online play through Nintendo WFC? If it does, that'll be so cool! Taiko drummers around the world playing :P

[Gosha]

Some footage of it here...

[flyboy87]

Wow, it seems like those super big rolling Don notes add the note count for the song. Very creative.

[my58vw]

Now comes the... how do I modify my wii to play these games...

[squall23]

There are legal and illegal ways of playing imports on Wii. Just looking it up on google. I'm not sure if I can post how here so I'm not going to bother.

And I'm so glad Kurenai is in it once again.

Also, I'm kind of scared of the controller because it looks like it'll eat battery life VERY quickly.

[MechaGai]

It doesn't eat up battery more than, say, the nunchuck or the classic controller. The only thing that matters is that the Wii Remote is on.
