Absurd tracks like Ringside, Monkey Watch, Fruit Basket and so many more will get stuck in your head for seemingly no reason. That is as complex as it gets, but the game is actually quite punishing although passing minigames and progressing through the game is a simple task, the time window you get given in order to hit a perfect note is very strict indeed, giving you plenty of room for improvement.īut none of this answers why the minigames and beats in Rhythm Paradise Megamix are so damn catchy. In Rhythm Paradise you’ll primarily use the A button, sometimes you’ll tap it, sometimes you’ll hold it – in very rare occasions, you may have to press a D-Pad direction or the B button. In Guitar Hero you have multiple colored buttons to juggle in one hand while doing something else in another, and in Persona 4 Dancing All Night you need to watch for six different button prompts and a stick motion. The thing about Rhythm Paradise is that the premise is so very simple, especially when compared to other rhythm games. If you’ve played a Rhythm Paradise game, then you’ll likely recognize more than a few of the included games and songs, but equally, I doubt you’ll be able to complain much.
Since this is a Megamix, it includes a large list of the very best games from the series’ past. Restoring flow everywhere you go is the main “narrative” point in Rhythm Paradise, but as you can probably imagine, the narrative isn’t actually that important – what’s important are the minigames. On the way you meet a whole cast of, erm, colorful characters that stop you in your tracks, refusing to open the way forward unless you complete four tasks – and yes, those tasks and rhythm minigames. His goal is to travel to a tower where he can be lifted back to Rhythm Heaven. You meet Tibby, a small pink bear with an afro larger than his body, who has fallen from Rhythm Heaven. It’s straightforward and driven along by a fun, but fairly loose, narrative. So what is Rhythm Paradise? It’s a mini-game collection, really, with a massive selection of short but sweet rhythm games, played along to catchy tunes. And therefore, it is no surprise that Nintendo’s Rhythm Paradise Megamix (or Rhythm Heaven, depending on where you live) is a game I enjoy quite a lot. When you boil it down to core components, gameplay is always a series of button presses, pressed at just the right time, and rhythm games take this to the natural conclusion, giving specific and varied cues and scoring you based on your accuracy.
