The taiko thumping thrills continue with Namco's
Wai² Happy Muyome edition of their flagship rhythm
game. Featuring 48 music tracks with selections from
J-Pop, animation, children's songs, classical, game
music, and Namco originals, players may bang the
drum to "No More Cry," "Y.M.C.A.," as sung in
Japanese, "Glamourous Sky," "Pecori 
Night," "Toccata
and Fugue," the "Xevious" BGM/SE, and many more.
Only 43 songs
are available at the outset but the other 5 may be
unlocked after meeting game conditions.

Four new enjoyable mini-games are included in
the game as follows:
1) Grab a virtual paddle and swat a feathery ball
back and forth against a cat, a girl, and other
opponents. Smack the ball past your opponent thrice
and you move on to the next challenger. Whenever an
opponent can't return your volley, a short animation
shows your swatter drawing on his/her face. Baby
chicks, living balloons, animals, and other beings
appear in the background to watch.
2) Take control of an upright dog and chop wood logs
as they are thrown onto a stump. In the middle of
the screen, a big crock pot is steaming and boiling
tofu, vegetables, and other bits. The wood needs to
be cut to provide fuel for the fire. Small logs are
chopped with a single tap of the "O" button but
bigger logs require multiple hits.
3) Grill squid and flip them over as they brown. If
a squid browns too much, it makes a face and is
ruined. Use the L and R trigger to move between the
different squids that pop up on the grill and flip
them again when they're golden brown on both sides
to score.
4) A love-struck lady Taiko is on the prowl and she
can't contain herself when she spies a male Taiko.
To escape, hit the "O" button to blast away from
her. Since she's a monstrous Taiko, she'll flatten
Mr. Taiko if she should catch up to him and perform
a landing maneuver.
There's also mini mini-games which consist of a concentration
play-alike, a melon eating contest, and other
frivolous exercises. |
