random correction:red and blue is basically don and ka

i wish i could just record it on my switch </3

such a fun game. absolutely worth it to get the drum

So which drum controller, exactly? There are so many.

If I buy the game and drum from Japan, will it translate to English on my US switch???

Please may I know if this can be played on Switch Lite? Thanks

Wow, the drum is a game changer. I'd love this game but it's so expensive and it seems obsolete without the drum.

Holy cow I just got it for 15 bucks on sale ! Can’t wait for it to download

Will the NA eShop let you play Japanese songs and English?

on sale for $15, June 9th

I have some several questions:
1)Can i download songs? if i can , do i need to have nintendo online?
2)Can i buy the drum set for my switch lite?

is there acually a monthly give away!

i am going to get the game! thanks for the review!

Joy-cons without motion is the best way to play

Another winner recommendation from Switchwatch! Absolutely love this one, even though I'm just on JoyCons. Great suggestion! Thanks!

Got it last night played for good two hour playing it hard with motion control. Went to bed with extreme aches in my hand and arm thiught I was dying. Turns out I played the game to hard I gave myself a cyst in my wrist. 😭 now I can’t play till it better

I've always wanted to play Taiko no tatsujin and I have a switch but doesn't the PS4 version have more songs and etc?

Are their still updates of new music? Free?

I don’t think Aus eshop ever had it for sale like $20 :(

I got it for christmas

Oh man, I played this game like crazy on the Nintendo DS. Just got the switch and found out they have this game for the switch as well. Must buy soon! Now where's the sale?

it has undertale

Played demo and defo saving up for it, so fun

Thanks for the review. I bought the eshop game Taiko no tatsujin on sale for $25 CAD. I bought the drumset from Amazon for $60 CAD.

On sale for $19.99 till October 21!

Untill I get this, I'm getting out the bongo's again ^_^

I love this game and I haven't played it yet

You can play in tabletop mode with a USB-C to USB-A convertor :)

Anyone know if you can connect 2 drums to the switch?

Ok, I'm sold.
I need this game with the drum in my life.

I have game on 3ds and there is adventure mode. Wish the switch would have one

I was able to change the sound of the drum on my copy for the switch.

Nice Review 👍 I have my copy on the way (the Physical Australian one was in fact being sold on Ebay by EB Games themselves brand new and for less than on the eShop thank god) already have the PS4 Version and been playing it to hell and back (was funny actually since that one is digital only and both the PS4 AND Switch titles are like $91 here on the Stores, luckily the morning I got paid around last week I went to Taiko on the PSN Store and it had just been reduced in the last few hours to $39.95 for the January Sales)

I’m so glad I spotted this. I’ve had it in my cart over at Play Asia for a while and I don’t even know why. Never had any interest in rhythm games but this looks awesome!! I guess I’ll pick it up.

any weebs out here?

Can you plug in 2 drum controllers?

Can you use the drum controller with other rhythm games on the Switch?

This game is surprisingly addictive and harder than it looks. It’s an endurance test on higher difficulty. I would do any controls you want but motion controls are only encouraged at lower difficulties due to human responsiveness of hitting thin air. We are not functionally abled to respond rhythmically without sufficient tactile feedback by that point

I'm sure the game is fun but to me I think it'd be more fun if I got to play Western songs (music from American, European, Canadian and Australian artists). I was never into the J-Pop or rock. I prefer traditional Japanese music over the pop junk.
I even made up my own unofficial soundtracks for most of those games even this one.

To me this is a Donkey Konga ripoff. I have no idea whether this series has lived since before Donkey Konga, but I want it - WITH DONKEY KONG and WESTERN (Not the movie category) MUSIC. Damn I miss Donkey Konga.

Tried this arcade machine recently, when visiting Tokyo. And was happy to see it released to the west just 1 day after returning. But I havent seen it anywhere since.. The energy of the game really drew me in

Very fun game on the switch .. this will definitely keep you busy 😍😍😍
