Instead of just throwing songs onto a disc Namco Bandai has been experimenting with ways to extend their Taiko games with single player modes like the adventure mode in Taiko no Tatsujin: 7-tsu no Shima no Daibouken. What does Taiko no Tatsujin Wii have? Daily training.
Taiko no Tatsujin Wii’s daily challenge dojo has goals to help hone your drumming skills like getting a 200+ combo. With new challenges to complete everyday this should keep players coming back to Taiko no Tatsujin Wii if they can get over the language barrier. Since all of the challenge descriptions are in Japanese it looks like Taiko no Tatsujin Wii won’t be as import friendly as other games in the series.
There will be seventy songs in the game and one of them is Mickey Mouse March which is sitting the variety section. Not sure if Mickey is going to make a cameo, but 8-bit Mario and Doremon will for their melodies. Other songs in Taiko no Tatsujin Wii include Galaxy Express 999, Train-Train, and a tune from Soulcalibur IV.
