[[File:RHdemoDSDownload.png|thumb]]When starting up the DS Download version, the game asks the player if they are "Left or Right?"-handed. After the choice is made, the player meets [[The Bandleader]] who first thanks the player for downloading the demo, after which they are taken to [[Practice Flicking]] (which can be skipped), and then they are taken directly to the first [[Rhythm Game]]. After each game, [[The Bandleader]] shows up to comment on the rating. If the player got [[OK]] or higher, they move on to the next game, without the Game Select.

==Trivia==
*There are certain [[Rhythm Games]] which do not end a [[Perfect]] run if the player goes only slightly off. They include [[Shoot-'em-up 2|Shoot-'Em-Up]], [[Frog Hop]], [[Lockstep]], as well as their arrange versions and in [[Remix]]es. These misses still impact the player's score outside of the [[Perfect Campaign]], however.
