For brevity, all versions of a given [[Rhythm Game]] (including those exclusive to a [[Remix]]) are documented in these pages, instead of having separate pages for say, [[The Clappy Trio]], [[The Clappy Trio 2]] and [[The Snappy Trio]]. Any content existing in one version of a game but not the other (such as the offbeat cue in [[Packing Pests 2]] in the other versions of [[Packing Pests]], or the Japanese text in [[Karate Man]] games also existing in the localized versions) are leftovers from when the developers copied one version to make another, and most of the time aren't worth mentioning. | For brevity, all versions of a given [[Rhythm Game]] (including those exclusive to a [[Remix]]) are documented in these pages, instead of having separate pages for say, [[The Clappy Trio]], [[The Clappy Trio 2]] and [[The Snappy Trio]].

Some ideas may be seriously considered during parts of development and even have concept art drawn for them, but are subsequently abandoned before even being programmed into the game. Some games get completely overhauled during development, resulting in the finished products sharing almost nothing with their earlier incarnations. Other games jump from one console to another, and even if the look or gameplay appears to change very little from one platform to the other, it is still a major shift in the game's development. | Some ideas may be seriously considered during parts of development and even have concept art drawn for them, but are subsequently abandoned before even being programmed into the game.

{{Nihongo|Example}}: The basis of [[Ringside]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' stemmed from the idea of cutting of a wedding cake, as while one would be trying to concentrate on the cutting of the cake, wedding guests would take pictures and request the person's attention. The developers thought that the idea of a cake-cutting rhythm game didn't seem too promising and came up with the interview scenario instead<ref>[http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/wii/rhythmheavenfever/0/2 Iwata Asks - Rhythm Heaven Fever, 3. Wedding Cake and "Ringside".]</ref>. The wedding cake concept was not programmed into the game before being abandoned, but the fact that it was considered at all is still a significant aspect of the game's history and development. | {{Nihongo|Example}}: The basis of [[Ringside]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' stemmed from the idea of cutting of a wedding cake, as while one would be trying to concentrate on the cutting of the cake, wedding guests would take pictures and request the person's attention.
