In 2004, [[generasia:Tsunku|Tsunku♂]] brought in a proposal and conception for what would eventually become ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]''. He was influenced by his dissatisfaction with "sound games" which involved pressing buttons at specific times but not actual rhythm<ref>"そうなんですよ。音、関係ないんですよね。そんなふうに、当時は感じてまして、でも、まぁ、そんなことをね、いちいち、ぼくらが言ってもしゃあないというか、こういうもんなんやなということでそのときは終わってたんです。で、数年前になりますけど、任天堂さんから『ドンキーコンガ』というゲームが出て、ぼくの楽曲をたくさん使っていただいたこともあってサンプルを送っていただいたんですね。それで、家でそれをやってみたときに、「あれ? ここはこうじゃないんじゃないかな」と。で、その夜に、最初の企画書みたいなものをバーッと書きはじめたんです。これはなんか伝えなあかん、という気がして。ゲームをつくってる人たちになにか伝えないと、ぼくにとっても、世間にとっても、「音ゲー」というものが曲がっていくような気がしたんです。で、書き上げたんですけど、それをどうするかというのははっきりとは決めてなかったんです。うちの社員たちに話したんですけど、「いや、ゲームつくるなんて無理ですよ」「何曲つくらなきゃいけないと思ってるんですか」みたいな反応ばっかりで、軽く説教されて(笑)。当時、いくつか、つき合いのあるソフトメーカーさんはあったんです。社員は、とりあえず、そこへ相談してみる、ということを考えていたみたいなんですけど、ぼくとしては、もう、「ダメもとでいいから、任天堂に送ってくれ」と。それは、なんていうかな、ソフトをつくる会社じゃなくて、「遊びそのもの」をつくる会社じゃないとダメだと思ったんです。それで企画書を任天堂さんに送って、それがそもそものきっかけですね。" (That's right. Sound has nothing to do with it. At the time, I felt that way, but I thought that there was nothing we could say about it, or that it was just the way things were. Then, a few years ago, Nintendo released a game called "Donkey Konga", and they used a lot of my music in it, so they sent me samples. When I tried it at home, I thought, "What? This isn't right". That night, I started writing my first proposal in a flash. I felt like I had to convey something to the people making the game. I felt that if I didn't communicate something to the people who were making the game, "sound games" would become a distorted concept, both for me and for the world at large. So I wrote it up, but I hadn't decided exactly what to do with it. I told my employees about it, but all they said was, "No, it's impossible to make a game," or "How many songs do you think you have to make?" At the time, there were several software makers with whom we had a relationship. The employees seemed to think that we should consult with them for the time being, but I said to them, "Just send it to Nintendo, even if it's a dead end." I thought it would have to be a company that creates "fun itself," not a company that creates software. So we sent the proposal to Nintendo, and that was the beginning.) ~ [[generasia:Tsunku|Tsunku♂]], [https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/interview/ylzj/vol2/index.html 社長が訊く『リズム天国ゴールド』] (Iwata Asks "Rhythm Tengoku Gold")</ref>.

[[generasia:Tsunku|Tsunku♂]] was deeply involved with the development of the game, as the developers thought that simply using his name alone would be meaningless. Despite worries that he wouldn't have the time to contribute due to being a very busy man, [[generasia:Tsunku|Tsunku♂]] planned ahead and gave a variety of opinions on the music production and content of the game. The developers did not want to put him in the forefront, worrying that it would imply that his involvement with the game was merely that of supervisor.

Of course, using Tsunku♂-san's name is a plus, but in some cases, it may cause misunderstandings. We wanted him to be involved in the content of the game, rather than just supervising the shape of the game. But he is a busy man, so I was worried about how it would go, but Tsunku♂-san seemed to have had that in mind from the start and gave us a variety of opinions on the content as well as the music production. Tsunku♂-san is a smart, friendly and, above all, very serious person. He's very stoic and thinks things through when it comes to making things. Since he was so involved in the project, we dared not to put his name in the foreground, so that it wouldn't be misunderstood as just a software supervisor. In order to let everyone know in the best possible way that Tsunku♂ was involved in the development of "Rhythm Tengoku", we paid attention to how we wanted him to appear in the game. So in the game, we didn't say it was Tsunku♂, but we decided to have him appear as "Drum Samurai", which is a temporary form of Tsunku♂. In fact, when I asked Tsunku♂-san, "Is it okay if you appear as Drum Samurai?", he kindly said, "Yes!"
