Template:Game-Nav Template:Minigame infobox Marching Orders also appears in the 2P mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade) where it is referred to as Marching Orders 2P (マーチャ 2P^?, Marcher 2P). It plays the same as the 1P version, but with a second player controlling the second cadet in the lineup.

Trivia

• Along with the rest of Stage 1, this game has a counterpart in the arcade version at 150% speed, with a more vibrant synth for orchestration and different graphics.
• This is one of the few games in Rhythm Tengoku that has more than or equal to 3 commands - this one has 4 commands.
• This is one of a few games to have different rating screens in both versions, except for the Superb rating screen which keeps the same style.
• This is the only game in Megamix to use every button (the D-Pad, the "B" button and the "A" button).
• According to a picture in Tengoku's credits, the cadet's hair colors are red, yellow, blue, and orange.
