    The best players in any Bemani game are Japanese, so I don't know about this Japan doesn't have rhythm thing.

    That is a bizarre thing for Tsunku to say... for a country 10th in the world for population, they have the second largest music industry.


    I don't mean to sound vicious with this because this post isn't meant as an attack, but Tsunku has consistently produced/written some of the worst J-pop I've heard so despite his huge success he seems kind of an inappropriate judge of Japan's musical talent... though it has rhythm, so many of his singers just cannot hit a note.


    When it comes to producers, I've always been more of a Tetsuya Komuro fan; his acts like Namie Amuro, DJ Krush, Ayumi Hamasaki, Globe, Kumi Koda or Ryuichi Sakamoto are all especially rhythmic and tend to have strong dancable beats.


    Takkyu Ishino or Denki Groove... are wholly based on rhythm and would have nothing if not for it... being producers of pounding techno and all... same for rappers like RIP SLYME, Halcali or Dragon Ash.


    Overall, it's just a nonsensical comment. He should take in some taiko some time and... stop listening to old SharanQ albums? (Ok, that was uncalled for... but fun. XD)


    @traumafox:

    Also, this. There have been an assortment of rhythm games since the mid-late 90s in Japan. It's just hitting its stride here, and I still only know a couple others here who can play them. Most gamers I know just want to run around and shoot stuff. :/

    So the guy who makes friggin Morning Musume is now going around as an authority on music?????


    I love Rhythm Tengoku to death, and have since the launch day of the original GBA version...and I'd say that this guy would be better off giving up the Morning Musume gig and focusing on Rhythm Tengoku exclusively. The "Love Laboratory" song was friggin awesome.


    By the way....his suit is awesome. While I am reluctant to go all the way to a full on suit...I do own a number of shiny jackets. "Men's Marui" in Shinjuku...the entire 5th floor is nothing but god damn shiny suits.

    You mean those stupid singing Easter Island statues???


    God I hated that level!!! Is there anyone out there who actually enjoyed that stage??? The sounds those statues made was extremely annoying...


    I wish we would have gotten a new "Obon" level....it was by far and away my favorite stage from the GBA original...

    J-pop is the worst music ever created. Only complete Japanphiles can stand listening to it. It's like all the annoying sounds from rap music compressed and played as fast as possible. I am reminded of how crappy J-pop is every time I play a recent game made by Sega.
