Rockers
Nothing says "rock" like dueling guitars. Take on the master and see if you've got the chops to stand in the spotlight!
In this Rhythm Game, the player plays as the rocker on the right of the stage. The player must wait for J.J. Rocker to finish his guitar routine for the player to copy. When the announcer shouts "Come on!" or "Last one!", the player and J.J. Rocker come together to play the routine at the same time, in a similar rhythm to Big Rock Finish. Sometimes J.J. Rocker can be seen strumming without white bolts, indicating these strums are not meant to be copied.
Perfect!/Ace!?: The player strums correctly, causing white bolts to appear.
Early!/Late!?: The player strums slightly off tune, causing blue tears to appear.
Miss...?: If the player strums at the wrong time, the strum is very off tune, causing yellow vines to appear. Regardless if the player strums at the wrong time or doesn't strum when they should, J.J. Rocker stumbles over.
