Taiko Drum Master Edges Closer To Official Western Release With New Trademarks

Just a couple of weeks ago, an Australian classification board listing appeared for Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘N’ Fun! (known as Taiko: Drum Master in the west), suggesting that the game would be making it out of Japan to other territories. Now we have even more cause for excitement, however, as a whole new batch of European listings have also popped up out of the blue.

Three listings have appeared in total - Drum Master, Drum 'n' Fun!, and Drum Session!. Drum 'n' Fun would suggest that the new game is indeed coming to the west, as predicted thanks to the Australian classification, and Drum Session! refers to the PS4 game that was released towards the end of last year. This could potentially mean that both games will be making it to western audiences, although Drum Session's current PS4 exclusivity would likely remain intact.

With all of these listings popping up, and with the Japanese launch of the game taking place this week, it's likely that we'll hear an official confirmation for its western release soon. Of course, if you really can't wait, the Japanese version of the game is getting an English language option next month so you could try to import a copy instead.

Last night I beat the Summit B-Side in Celeste.

So challenging. So Rewarding. And the game still throws up new tricks and imaginative ways to play with the small move-set. Definitely one of my favorite ever games.

I hope the Core is a little easier, though I'm doubting.

Never mind the C-Sides, wherever the hell they are.

I'm starting to think you might have caught onto the sarcasm and such and am throwing it right back at those who were doing it.

Anyway... Obligatory comment about wanting a wireless GCN-styled controller to be able to use when not on the TV.

But disappointed that this was the update. Was hoping for something a bit more substantial. I did expect cross promotion with BOTW, but Inthiugh we would see some courses and maybe a link with Odyssey too.

Oops, I didn't see that superfurry had posted here before I updated the Kart thread!

Yeah, I would have liked to have seen a new track - if only to tempt TWA back to the game! - but it's still cool to get a new vehicle.

Except that I never use bikes :shifty: .

Nice song, but what else you got that isn't the godly main theme?


There's Hyrule Castle (endgame spoilers lads), the return of Zora's Doman, this heartfelt tribute to a golden oldie, fighting this twerp then flipping him over, the way Tarrey Town builds up, the transformation of the Vah Naboris dungeon from tortured shrieking to something pretty damn amazing, this adorable bastard...

BotW has a lot of atmospheric music, sure, and 5 CDs does feel like a bit of a stretch, but it's not melody-free and it deserves more credit than it gets.


Also shout-out to BreathofCows (I'm okay with this mistyping) for persevering with the best indie game on Switch. Maybe... the best indie game????? :shock:

I don't think DLC with new trackers/characters is out of the question at this stage.

Nintendo have repeatedly said how they are looking to keep people playing their games for longer. The MK team released Arms last summer, and while there were 6 more months have updates I can't imagine that took up all their time. I would think Nintendo has either greenlit MK9 (which we obviously won't see for awhile, late 2020/21) or they've decided to capitalise on MK8DX's massive sales with some DLC they can turn around in far less time.

Started playing Odyssey in two player. It's pretty fun, but the camera controls are a little awkward.

Anyone know if it's possible to play with three joy-cons? (So, you've got the Mario player playing with the two separate joycons and the Cappy player with just the single horizontal joycon?)

11:50pm instead of 11:49pm?

This is a sign of the end of days surely.
