Hiya! Going to go through Rhythm Heaven on the DS, here. Normally I don't care to record "playthroughs" but I'm curious to test out this DS recording set up I've got going here - and this game ROCKS! What I'll likely do is take all the "Perfect" attempts and link those together into a playlist of sorts and downplay these playthroughs in future. But for now, you can follow me along through the games and other quirks to be found in this title!


Rhythm Rally
-----------------
Had a bit of trouble figuring out how to hold/flick the stylus on this one - worked out in the end, though! I mean, seriously... I thought I was losing this one for sure! Guess I was really on the beat for the rest of them, huh?

Anyhoo, this is a fast-paced and fun one which NEVER lets up. Quite a few folks have trouble here, but hey, looki't how poorly I did! (By the way, don't worry about swinging too late. It may LOOK like the ball will have traveled too far, but trust me, believe in the beat, nothing else!)


Shoot-'Em-Up
-------------------
I love the music in this one. Crazy guitar riffs while careening through space accompanied by a cute control-tower chick who guides you along your way! What could possibly mess this up? Aliens.

Yeah, stinkin' high speed psychotically rhythmic aliens! Fortunately, if you've an ounce of GrOoVe in ya, they can be dealt with. Their one and only weakness!

...but it wasn't enough for a superb for me! Aw, dang it! I missed only a little on one formation, right? Oh well. THIS one is EXTREMELY strict on scoring!

These are the lines radio-girl says, by the way. From "Practice" onwards:

"Invasion alert! Tap to shoot inbound enemies!"

"We should practice before the first wave attacks."

"That's the way."

"Let's try another practice wave..."

"You've got it."

"Now try it in a fight."

"Enemies inbound!"

"The next wave is attacking!"

"Just a little longer...
Hang in there!"

"Good job."
