Early Builds

This game was the first to feature a bossa nova rhythm. Upon listening to it, the developers decided to give it fairytale visuals to match, but Masami Yone decided to give it a bit of an edge, which led to the inclusion of sexy voices following the rhythm.

Unused Content

There are unused sprites of 2 arrows forming a circle, likely to illustrate the switching mechanic, and a green arrow.

Regional Differences

In Minna no Rhythm Tengoku, the text that appears on screen is shown on the right and read vertically. In other versions, it is moved to the top where it is read horizontally.

Rhythm Heaven Megamix

Bossa Nova consists of the following versions in Rhythm Heaven Megamix:

Internal Name	Image	Used in
		Bossa Nova

Unused Content

The debug menu of Rhythm Heaven Megamix contains references to RVLボッサレシーブ01 (rvl_receive_01^?) and RVLボッサレシーブ02 (rvl_receive_02^?), suggesting the presence of two more versions of Bossa Nova, being after the used long version. However, with the entries being labeled with a number rather than a letter, there being no pre-existing arrange version of Bossa Nova and no other data anywhere for these versions, these entries are most likely the result of the developers copy-pasting and simply not removing the excess entries. While one could argue that one of the entries could be for the Endless Game, it is grouped with the other games from Rhythm Heaven Fever, while the Endless Games have their own separate group.

Regional Differences

In the version of Rhythm Heaven Megamix, playing this game with Japanese voices has it play the English voices instead. This error was not present in Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise, and is corrected in Rhythm Paradise Megamix and Rhythm Sesang: The Best+.
