Taiko 0: 3.13 live update post


Another update for the latest arcade means another bunch of new songs! Besides all the new features already mentioned in last week's Taiko Blog entry, five new songs have joined Taiko 0's roster:
  • J-Pop song 365 Nichi no Love Story, by Sonar Pocket
  • Anime songs Busters Let's Go! and Let's go! Smile Precure, from the Sentai and Precure shows
  • Game Music songs Extreme MGG and Music Revolver, from Taito's Music Gun!Gun! 2
Since not everything has been revealed yet about the new songs, today's post will be updated until videos and ratings of the new songs are being unveiled. 11 updates and counting!

1. Last week's star ratings for the new Game Music songs weren't mere placeholders: Extreme MGG's Oni mode is a 5* with 345 notes (3/3/3/5), while Music Revolver's 4-star Oni counts 443 notes (3/3/3/4). The songs's BPM ranges are respectively 120-200 and 168. No gameplay videos yet!
2. Today's update also granted new Ura difficulties to the aforementioned songs! Extreme MGG got a 9* Oni with 757 notes, while Music Revolver is a new 10* Oni with 777 notes.
3. Extreme MGG (triple star) Ura now has a video! Still no HQ of any of the 5 songs yet.
4. Let's Go! Smile Precure is 4* Oni (1/1/2/4) with 306 notes.
5. Busters Let's Go is 3* Oni (rest unknown) and 365 Nichi no Love Story is 6* Oni (rest unknown). Notecounts unknown at the moment, and no videos for both.
6. Courtesy of Youtube user shinobu765, we have HQ videos of the Taito collab songs! HQ snaps taken from Extreme MGG Regular (and an audio rip with the Ura notechart) and Music Revolver Ura.
7. The new software update also includes more unlockable songs, from the new nickname system! As shown below, Kita Saitama 200 is unlockable by clearing Kita Saitama 2000 2 times in a row.


The Carnivorous Carnival will be unlockable too, with a full-combo clear of Taiko Time Ura with the Detarame mod switched on. No confirmation video/images yet!
