Taiko Drum Master DS: 39 Songs' Adventure

{ Apr 21st 2008 at 5:00PM }
Taiko no Tatsujin: 7 Islands' Adventure comes out in Japan -- and ships out to happy importers -- this week. Along with more screenshots, GAME Watch included the full (as far as we know) song list. We thought it might be nice for people interested in the game to know what's in the game, so we translated, or transliterated, the song titles and linked to a video of each one. Except for the Fukoumori theme, which we couldn't find. The game's music falls into six categories: J-Pop, game music, Namco originals, children's songs, classical music, and anime. Well, functionally, they fall into one category: stuff with beats. Check after the break for the list, and please watch some videos so we don't feel like we've wasted our time.
J-Pop
- PEACH
- Ai Uta (Love Song)
- AGE AGE EVERY Kishi
- Lifetime Respect -Onna hen-
- Ikenai Taiyou
- Tentai Kanzoku
- Love so sweet
- Linda Linda
Namco Originals Classical
- Bolero
- Carmen Prelude
- La Campanella
- The Nutcracker Suite
- Symphony No. 5
- The Entertainer
- Parade of the Wooden Soldiers
- From the New World

Gah, why do they always get rid of the fun stuff when they release games in the US? :P
Thanks for the videos!
TheFreak @ Apr 21st 2008 6:50PM
Oh hey, Linda Linda was in the first Ouendan. Points for familiarity right there.
Also, nice to see Anpanman make a return appearance.
hvnlysoldr @ Apr 22nd 2008 12:03AM
I loved Anpanman. I watched a lot as a kid. I still remember the song when drawing his face.
MechaGai @ Apr 22nd 2008 12:59AM
Linda Linda was in an older version of Taiko, a bit before Ouendan came out. Taiko has that magical ability to pull really popular songs and throw them into the game, so if you follow J-pop even remotely, then a few of the songs will be familiar to you. I know a GOOD amount of songs in Ouendan can be found in Taiko, like Guts Da Ze, Kokoro Odoru and Shanghai Honey from the first one, and Glamorous Sky and Monkey Magic from Ouendan 2.

Wow, thanks for using my Alphabet Song video, haha.
Steve Fox @ Apr 21st 2008 10:27PM
Oh, Tentai Kanzoku and Ai Uta have the same link?
blahman @ Apr 21st 2008 10:59PM

Loserbait @ Apr 22nd 2008 4:27AM
I. love. Ai Otsuka [Peach].
And I'm an increasingly bigger RSP fan, too [Onna hen].
[Tentaikansoku] needs to die already...
[Linda Linda] is very awesome.
Glad to see the [Ridge Racer] track in there.
Yes... [Saitama 2000].
I miss playing [Parade of the Wooden Soldiers] on Keyboard Mania. Glad to see it's back in a rhythm game.
Nice to see [The Alphabet Song] make the cross-over!
[Anpanman Taisou]... Anpanman also needs to rest in peace. Same with [Yume wo Kanaete Doraemon].
Yes to: [Sousei no Aquarion], [Cruel Angel Thesis], [CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA]... and an especially HUGE YES to: [Daybreak's Bell]!
