While widgets do not appear in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]],'' rods known as {{Nihongo|Akai Mono|赤いモノ|Red Objects}} do appear in the [[Rhythm Game]] [[Polyrhythm]].

Widgets make their first actual appearance in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' in [[Built to Scale (DS)|Built to Scale]], where they are portrayed as a white rod and nuts. The player must wait for the nuts to roll into place, then launch the rod into them to form the widget. They later appear in [[Built to Scale 2 (DS)|Built to Scale 2]], this time colored red. The assembly line has a variety of slogans for every month which instruct the workers to follow the rhythm while producing the widgets, but some workers have later found that even following the beat can lead to production suffering, and realising that following it doesn't matter much as they get paid the same regardless<ref>[[ | Widgets make their first actual appearance in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' in [[Built to Scale (DS)|Built to Scale]], where they are portrayed as a white rod and nuts.

The square mass-produced objects appear again in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' in [[Built to Scale (Wii)|Built to Scale]], where the player must bounce around a rod while waiting for two nuts to come into place, after which the player must launch the rod into the nuts to form the complete widget. While these rods are never referred to as anything in-game, comments left in the internal data refer to them as {{Nihongo|Akai Mono|赤いもの|Red Objects}}<ref>"赤いもの" (Akai Mono) ~ comment left in the file "rcad_assembly_parts_labels.h", ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''</ref> like the rods in [[Polyrhythm]].
