Several ideas for [[Rhythm Games]] that were not implemented in the final version of ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' are known to exist. It is mentioned that there are over 20 games cut from the game, which are listed below<ref>[https://www.1101.com/nintendo/rythm_heaven2/07.html ほぼ日刊イトイ新聞 - 樹の上の秘密基地。] (Hobo Nikkan Itoi Shinbun - A secret base on a tree.)</ref>. Some games have remnants in the final game, while others were removed completely. | Several ideas for [[Rhythm Games]] that were not implemented in the final version of ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' are known to exist.

Even if one was well-made, the theme was rhythm, so if it didn't feel right, the whole thing had to go."

*There was a [[Rhythm Game]] where the player would press a button to swing a stick to strike things, then release it to return the stick back. However, the act of releasing the button to the rhythm was found to be unexpectedly difficult to understand, leading to the game being cut<ref>"ボタンを押すとキャラクターが棒を振って、さらにボタンを離すとその振った棒を戻す。その棒の動きで、ものを「しばく」というリズムゲームがあったんです。 しかし、リズムに合わせてボタンを離すという行為が意外とシビアでわかりにくかったんですよね。「これは遊んでいても気持ちよくないだろう」ということで、製品版には入れずにボツにしたんです。ネタとしてはおもしろかったんですけど（笑）。 ちなみにボツになったリズムゲームは全部で20個以上もあるのですが、そのなかには、このようなタイトルの作品がありました。" (When the button is pressed, the character swings a stick, and when the button is released, the swinging stick is returned. There was a rhythm game in which you "strike" things with the movement of the stick. However, the act of releasing the button in time with the rhythm was unexpectedly severe and difficult to understand. We decided not to include it in the production version because we thought it wouldn't be pleasant to play. It was interesting as a story (laughs). Incidentally, there are more than 20 rejected rhythm games in total, among which there was one with a title like this.) ~ [[w:nintendo:Kazuyoshi Osawa|Kazuyoshi Osawa]], [https://www.1101.com/nintendo/rythm_heaven2/07.html ほぼ日刊イトイ新聞 - 樹の上の秘密基地。] (Hobo Nikkan Itoi Shinbun - A secret base on a tree.)</ref>. [[Ninja Bodyguard]] in [[Remix 5 (GBA)|Remix 5]] and [[Ninja no Shison]] show [[Tanaka|a character]] that slices rocks with a stick, which may have been inspired by this idea. | *There was a [[Rhythm Game]] where the player would press a button to swing a stick to strike things, then release it to return the stick back.

*{{Nihongo|Kuma|『くま』|Bear}}: This game has leftover sound effects, labeled "s_kuma_hit", "s_kuma_miss" and "s_kuma_sakana" (Sakana meaning "fish"). The last of these was repurposed for [[Iai Giri]]. | *{{Nihongo|Kuma|『くま』|Bear}}: This game has leftover sound effects, labeled "s_kuma_hit", "s_kuma_miss" and "s_kuma_sakana" (Sakana meaning "fish").
