It is at this time that you must tap the beat for maximum points. In addition, a bigger circle surrounds every beat - It will become smaller and smaller, eventually lining up perfectly with the beat. Each beat is represented by a coloured circle with a number, which reveals exactly what order you will need to hit them in. The two final songs are played with both teams at the same time.Īs in the other two games, the gameplay consists entirely of tapping beats on screen in rhythm with the music. As such, the songs in the game are divided up between the two teams - The new guys get 14, while the old ones get 13. In this game, there's actually two squads - One is new in town, but very quickly states they're the better squad, resulting in a rivalry between the two. But, if the squad performs poorly, the results will show - Keep going out of tune and whoever you're trying to help will very quickly fail in overcoming their obstacles, requiring you to start the song over. Somehow, this gives the person an almost magical performance boost, being able to overcome anything that troubles him or her. When people find themselves up against insurmountable odds, they simply shout " Ouendan" at the top of their lungs - The titular cheering squad then shows up out of nowhere mere seconds later, after which they will begin to dance in tune with one of the game's 19 songs to cheer on the person in need. Obviously, such success couldn't go unnoticed, and so, iNiS made a direct sequel to Ouendan, featuring the same characters, coupled with the gameplay improvements and new features offered in Elite Beat Agents. Amazingly enough, the same happened for EBA - It was popular all over the world, with Japanese stores actually importing loads of copies to sell to Ouendan fans. Featuring exactly the same gameplay, some features were added and others improved on, and the soundtrack, of course, consisted entirely of English songs rather than Japanese ones.
People spoke so positively about it that it was popular both in and outside Japan, with it being imported en mass.Ĭlearly taking note of this, iNiS next created Elite Beat Agents. Rhythm games were hardly being made for the system, but they instantly proved that it could have amazing results when done right. In 2005, iNiS crafted Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan for DS.
