Come on, shake your body baby, do the conga, I know you can’t control yourself any longer. Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger, don’t you fight it ‘til you tried it, do that conga beat! Yeah.
Taiko’s been a long-running series that used to be loved by /v/, so how it ended up in this category is a mystery to me, but regardless, the latest entry is probably the most-refined yet, with its casual appeal, but its batshit insane skill ceiling on the highest difficulty.
With the intended arcade playstyle as well, the Switch’s control scheme actually works the gimmick in its favor, a rarity amongst Nintendo’s systems. With a mixed track list of video game music, classic, and pop songs, the music we got after localizing certainly beats the shit we got back on the PS2. With any luck, this one will find some success, and inspire a few more obscure rhythm games to come stateside as well.
