[@ThePooPodcast]

(Spoilers for Lockstep on Rhythm Heaven DS) I remember playing rhythm heaven on the DS and I had a very beautiful experience playing the minigame, Lockstep. I had been dying in school. My parents had been pushing down on me and there was some intense drama in my friend group that i was involved in. At night, I was kept up till 4 because of my anxiety. One of those restless nights I said, “screw it let’s play some rhythm heaven.” I popped open my DS and played the most recently unlocked minigame, Lockstep. I was playing through the minigame hitting those offbeats and onbeats real hard. As I continued to tap out the boys, I started to forget about the problems. I started to have a good time. It was mesmerizing and I was locked in step with these boys. It was incredible. I had not been able to escape my anxiety and problems for the longest time and here i could just enjoy myself. Then, it happened. The camera began to zoom out, showing more Lockstep boys. It was beautiful to see so many people come together on my screen to step out a groovy rhythm. It brought tears to my eyes to see my character amongst his fellow friends and family stepping along in peace and in such a happy, ethereal state. Then it completely zoomed out to reveal that they’re all in formation to create a picture of a dude. I have no idea who that dude is or what his deal is but it didn’t matter and it still doesn’t matter. Just the fact that the lockstep boys and the developers at nintendo have created this experience where i can feel happy with a gang and create art... it made me cry. I hadn’t cried since I was a little kid. I was taught not to cry by my parents but I just had to here. The lockstep boys had just struck such an emotional tone with me and I couldn’t hold in my feelings any longer. I just cried and cried and cried. In the end, i got an “Okay” rating. But that was okay. I was able to see my lockstep boys again and have a great time with them. That day, I learned the important of letting your emotions out and the importance of togetherness. Thank You Nintendo and Thank you Rhythm Heaven. I sincerely hope more of these games get developed so more people can have these experiences.

[@hreowan]

[@balinese5144]

I never knew that a good Rhythm Tengoku translation was even out there, I just bumbled my way through in Japanese originally. My thoughts on this sort of thing is that people will go through what they need to go through to have things that aren't supported/supplied to people readily. Part of this coming from how pro archival i'm becoming as more and more things disappear off of the internet, especially videogames, from companies just not going out of their way to preserve them. So much XBLA that's just lost to time. With fan translations, to me if the publishers aren't ready to put one out i'm not opposed to fans getting involved. As long as people still go out of their way to do stuff like you mentioned and import the games when they get the chance. It's a tough balancing act of being anti-piracy but also pro archival and making sure people get a chance to play these games that would otherwise fly right past them because of english release.

[@babylonian]

yeah, agreed! one of my favorite details in Rhythm Heaven Silver is the part (it's at 8:35 in the video) where they included a list of ways players could support the series in America. they clearly care about supporting the series as much as anyone!

Dude. I haven't thought of Rhythm Heaven since Megamix got a US port three years ago. Thanks for reminding me how little attention this series gets from the big N.

[@VioletVGVilla]

I feel like the general rule with repro carts, fan translations, and importing is that the older the game is the more valid the decision. Basically, even buying a legit cartridge of a gba game now won't get the original company a dime, so if a version of a very rare or outright unavailable game exists for far cheaper and you just wanna play the game it was meant to be played then there shouldn't be an issue morally. Especially if you support the game/series when it does become available officially.

[@mrchoochooguy4045]

Yeah I emulated silver, gold, and fever, and it was a stroke of luck I got a physical copy of megamix. I couldn't get fever without spending my life savings, i didn't have a GBA, I have a DS but it has black bits on the screen and in general I wanted the emulator version. I should really emulate nsmb ds considering it's the only game I really have played on my ds recently.

Honestly, this is by now my favourite video game series ever. I was never that much interested in Rhythm games before, I thought they all were the same, just pressing buttons that come flying at you (you know, a la Guitar Hero or DDR) but this series completely changed my mind on the genre. I found out about the games pretty much by coincidence, like most people here. I was just watching random meme KZbin videos one afternoon and the recommended bar suggested me a video of Rhythm Heaven Repainted, I watched it, and luckily enough a regular gameplay was among the Repainted video's recommended. I was blown away, I was like "Is this really a rhythm game?" So I felt tempted to try em, through emulation. (Luckily I didn't stump with any glitches or Input lag!) and totally felt in love with the games. They're simple, easy to pick up, but really hard to dominate! I really hope we get a new game soon. I'd actually have a reason to buy a Switch too!

[@ContemptCostanza]

I remember seeing a copy of the original Rhythm Tengoku at a Superpotato when I went to Japan. Was really tempted to buy it just for the Cool Factor but went with Pokémon Green instead. Fan translators like this are truly doing God’s work.

In fact, the rhythms in the rap level got me so hung up, that I obsessed over them for a solid day before I internalized it. I was gifted the DS version shortly after, but then I lost my DS and case. I have since bought a new DS, but never had another Rhythm Heaven game. God, I miss it. Thank you for this wonderful content!

[@SouthpawHare]

I feel very similarly on the topic of Smash Bros mods. Back before Smash4, when Brawl was the last game in the series, I was in a weird situation where I considered Smash Bros to be my favorite series of all video games, but I didn't actually like any of the individual games all that much, as they all had massive, game-breaking issues. Brawl in particular had lots of cool new features, but was also incredibly unbalanced and busted. Then, people made amazing mods for it, and for a time, my favorite entries in the series were those mods, which didn't "officially exist" at all. Of course, Nintendo was super against such mods, which made me feel very conflicted, since I loved them so much.

[@Trogdorbad]

"So naturally, I did what I usually do in these situations and flew to Japan to ask Nintendo themselves what the back should say."

This is a perfect example of why the modding community in video games is so great. Modding consoles isn't about piracy. That aspect of it is a major draw for some people, especially chinese cart makers who only care about profiting off of the work that the initial modders did, but people who do the initial work do it because they care about making hardware you own truly yours, allowing for customization, homebrew, etc. I own many physical Japanese titles across my various consoles and handhelds, and the rare occasions where a title gets a working english translation fan mod (eg Maplestory: Girl of Destiny for 3ds), I make use of it through that. On top of that I'm able to do neat things, like stream my computer games to my Nintendo Switch and play with the joycons, or used my original xbox classic as a media server. The possibilities are endless, because these are essentially computers. Rather than buying a home media server, I could repurpose hardware I already have, and still use them to play games I own copies of, and that's the primary reason why the modding communities for video game consoles exist. Piracy comes after, and is usually an after-thought advertised by people profiting off of selling an easy solution (r4 cart, sxos, etc).

I love seeing custom cartridges with fanlations for JP only GBA and DS games. Getting to play Fire Emblem: Binding Blade and Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem in english on GBA and DS respectively without any weird emulation issues (mostly an issue with New Mystery and DS emulators) is an absolutely amazing experience. As a long-time FE fan, I'm extremely used to fanlations due to 7 of the 15 mainline games being JP only. If a game does not receive an international release, then I harbour zero issues with fanlation and emulation, as I will probably import the game and/or purchase additional officially supported media (mostly OSTs) to support the developers if it's a series I care for.

I cry hearing Rockers and Remix 10 on that, I remember FINALLY beating Remix 6 and seeing the drag thing go in all 4 directions. The Wii one never got me too excited other than the endless modes and Shrimp Shuffle. Played through the GBA one, love it. The 3DS one got me in a lot of ways. The final remix of that feels like a very FINAL note to the series where I keep HOPING EVERY NINTENDO DIRECT to see Rhythm Heaven on Switch. I still cry. I still live in the beat. Thanks.

I kept failing or barely passing the games. But then something clicked for me in Lockstep-my first superb, and my first perfect medal. I don’t know what exactly it was, but that game was a turning point for me in Rhythm Heaven, and I still go back to it regularly.

Rhythm heaven fever is without a doubt my favorite 3DS game. Got the DS game years ago on a road trip to keep me me quiet in the car, and I've loved the series ever since. Tengoku is the only Japanese GBA game I've gone out of my way to import a complete in box copy of.

I have 3 favourite DS games. 1. Chibi Robo - Park Patrol 2. Rhythm Heaven 3. Warioware D.I.Y

[@babylonian]

[@MrSlaveSP]

What about SM64 DS?

"I modded my Wii in secret" I would actually do that as well but my dad back in the day allowed us to mod my family's Wii just for Club Penguin... And he never knew the possibilities of modding

[@bobalinx8762]

Actually, Rhythm Tengoku Gold is the Japanese name of the DS game; the Wii game's Japanese name is Minna no Rhythm Tengoku.

crap, you're right! i did this video all in one go with no script, so i was bound to screw something up :P

[@davidsosa507]

Ahhh, you remind me to Mohter 3's fan translation. I remember playing Earthbound and loving it, but when I was trying to play mother 3... it just never came out. When the fan translition appeared... man, the tears were real. The entire game was amazingly stylised and with such creativty that, in my opinon, was so much more personal than Earthbound, and I wouldn't have enjoy it so much if it wasn't for the excellent fan translation

[@bambanmangaka8034]

It works perfectly on a modded 3DS with thr GBA Virtual Console injector, since it really doesn't use emulation, the game is running on 3DS hardware, with no input lag or glitches whatsoever!!!!

[@OfficialDeVinyl]

Its so rare to find people on youtube that actively love this game series enough to make a fairly long video about it. Ive seen the tengoku arcade in your videos and im so jealous dude! I have a plush from when tengoku first launched.

[@CinnaBox]

YOU OWN A WHAT????????

[@MINECRAFTLOVER4000]

i didn't even know this game existed

[@boozab99]

Poonda this is a fan translation of the rhythm heaven for GBA released in Japan only, I've been paying attention to this project since 2014.

[@danadoodles4560]

Oh my GOD, I love you even more now. Rhythm Heaven is so underrated.

[@GrounderSez]

[@SquidSystem]

[@coreblaster6809]

I love your content man Rhythm heaven is epico

[@docmarion8902]

I played Rythm Tengoku (the first one, emulated) a few years ago and my love for this series haven’t faded out not even a bit. I’ve played all the other games but the first one is still my favorite. And I didn’t even noticed it was a fan translation!
