The B[ack]log: Elite Beat Addict
Alex Ward isn't going to appreciate me saying this, but I recently beat Elite Beat Agents. In one sitting, I might add. If you've ever read one, you'd know that a typical video game manual generally frowns upon such protracted play sessions, urging you to take a break every hour and go stare at something that isn't comprised of polygons. That seemed like terrible advice at the time, and for two very good reasons. The first, being the one most concerned with my personal health, was that severing the connection and stepping outside would result in a sudden depressurization and my intimate inspection of a churning jet engine. Perhaps this would have been the superior option had I packed Lost in Blue for the 5-hour flight from New York to Los Angeles, but I wisely went with Nintendo's music-and-rhythmer instead. The second reason then, was that I found myself far too enthralled to even consider giving up for a moment -- not even when I was losing.
Some new Ouendan 2 tracks revealed
Cheeraholics will be glad to hear that four more songs for Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2 have been discovered by a savvy individual snooping around Nintendo's Japanese website. Of course, if you're anything like us, you don't want any of this sure-to-be amazing game spoiled for you, so we placed the track list past the break. Check it out if you wish.
Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! sequel is a go
Nintendo confirmed that the popular rhythm-based game Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! will be released to a hungry Japanese public within the confines of this year. If the name is unfamiliar to you, that's probably because you know it as Elite Beat Agents, the English-localized version of the game. Nothing else more has been revealed about the game, but stay tuned to DS Fanboy for future updates as they come.See also: Metareview: Elite Beat Agents Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! comes to life
Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! Rumored! For! US! Release!
Siliconera, like many other sites (including this one, now) is taking note of a particularly juicy rumor currently scurrying about in the air vents of the internet. It states that Nintendo has picked up the ridiculously frantic and exuberant music-and-rhythm game, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! for a North American release. For the uninformed and importing depraved, it depicts the adventures of a motley group of cheerleaders parading about and encouraging people to succeed as they go about performing mundane tasks in their lives. Naturally, the game's concept and original name has passed through the butchering translation machine to produce Elite Agent Force. That doesn't sound generic at all.
