Rhythm Tengoku (リズム天国?, Rhythm Tengoku) is an arcade port of Rhythm Tengoku for the Game Boy Advance. It was developed by Nintendo and published by SEGA. It was released on September 20, 2007 in Japan.

History

SEGA approached the development team with an offer for an arcade version as the game was popular with SEGA staff. Osawa and Ko Takeuchi, who initialy thought it was a joke, were impressed, as they never thought Rhythm Tengoku was able to gain a following.[1]

Gameplay

Players start the game with two hearts. Each heart is lost when starting a Rhythm Game. Getting a Superb or Perfect gives an extra heart, as well as close the game for the rest of the Stage. If the player runs out of hearts, they will need to spend a credit to continue (or, depending on the machine's settings, multiple credits, or none if set to Freemode). The player needs to clear all five games and the Remix in the Stage with at least an OK to move on. Depending on the settings, the Remix may be unselectable, requiring the player to clear all the games in order to play it.

Rhythm Games

All of the Rhythm Games from Rhythm Tengoku are available in the 1 Player (1人で遊ぶ?, 1-Ri de Asobu) mode. The arcade version has an Extra stage as well. A selection of games are also present in the 2 Player mode.

1 Player

It's a mode for one player

2 Player

2人で遊ぶ
ふたリでー緒に

"2 Player
It's a mode for two players

Differences

  • Ninja Bodyguard and Ninja no Shison use the Left and Right buttons, instead of ✚ and Ⓐ. The arrows above the player are changed accordingly.
  • If the player has played perfectly for the first half of a Rhythm Game, the "Go for a Perfect!" notice will appear on the bottom of the screen. Obtaining it is little different from a Superb, however.
  • The game has a leaderboard feature, tallying up the score based on the player's flow at the end of a stage.
  • The resolution is larger, and the graphics are manually upscaled to appear smoother. Most non-gameplay graphics are higher quality as well.

Trivia

  • This is one of the very few games developed by Nintendo and SEGA.
