Sega and Nintendo bring Rhythm Tengoku to arcades ... in Japan
Not content with limiting the infectious GBA rhythm title's release to Japan-only, Nintendo has teamed up with one-time archrival Sega to bring Rhythm Tengoku to the arcades. In Japan.
The title, developed by Nintendo R&D1 (the WarioWare guys) is an import favorite (after all, rhythm knows no language); as the DS's popularity grew, Nintendo became increasingly unsure of how to position the aging Game Boy Advance and, as such, this popular title was never released outside Japan. Excluding the obvious addition of multiplayer support, this arcade port looks very similar to the GBA original -- a series of wacky minigames all timed to music -- with some new stages thrown in. And since they've ported it to the arcade, they've ensured we'll never see this version either.
