Taiko no Tatsujin (太鼓の達人, lit. 'Master of the Drums') is a video game series created by Namco. In the games, players simulate playing a taiko drum in time with music. The series has released games for the arcade and for console and mobile platforms including PlayStation 2, Advanced Pico Beena, PlayStation Portable, Nintendo DS, Wii, Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Microsoft Windows, iOS, Android[1] and Japanese feature phones.

While the series is mainly designed for use within Japan, there are also localized versions for other regions, including English, Chinese and Korean-language versions.

Gameplay

Objective

The main objective of Taiko no Tatsujin games is to hit a special Taiko drum made for the game or a virtual one following a chosen piece of music, corresponding to notes[lower-alpha 1] scrolling from the right.

A song is cleared when the spirit gauge[lower-alpha 2] is filled past the target[lower-alpha 3] at the end of the song by playing accurately enough.

Controls

Arcade releases are equipped with simulated Taiko, which can register hits when played with drum sticks (bachi).

Console versions mainly use buttons to play, while certain devices can support additional methods of input:

  • A virtual Taiko drum is provided on devices with touchscreens (DS, 3DS, Wii U, iPod touch, smartphone, Nintendo Switch), played with either styluses or fingers.
  • Dedicated peripherals simulating real drums can be purchased additionally for PS2, Wii, Wii U, PS4 or Nintendo Switch releases. Such a peripheral is included with the physical North American PlayStation 2 and European Nintendo Switch versions.

Notes

The variety of notes in the game consists mainly of red and blue markers. The red don (ドン) note requires a hit on the face of the drum, and the blue ka (カッ) note requires a hit on the rim.[2]

Other notes require quick consecutive hits on the drum. Types of such notes includes the yellow bar, the balloon note (called a burst note in Taiko: Drum Master) and the Kusudama ball (or the yam on older releases since PS2 Godaime, or the Mallet note in Drum Session! and Drum ‛n’ Fun!).[2]

Unlike other rhythm games such as Guitar Hero, the drum is an addition to the songs and does not limit an instrument being played whenever the notes are not hit, nor does it simulate an off-key sound when missed as the game allows the players to freely hit the drum wherever they want, so long as it isn't close to a note that could result in a penalty.

Difficulty

Most games in the franchise provide four difficulty levels for play: Easy,[lower-alpha 4] Normal,[lower-alpha 5] Hard,[lower-alpha 6] and "Oni",[lower-alpha 7] (known in English versions of Drum 'n' Fun and Drum Session as "Extreme") the highest difficulty.

The sequence of the notes in a level is commonly referred to as a notechart[lower-alpha 8].

Inner notecharts

Certain songs also have extra inner note charts[lower-alpha 9] in addition to the four standard levels. These are intended to be alternative takes on the regular set.[3] Although not a main objective, most inner note charts are made more difficult than regular note charts. This later changed to being exclusive to the Oni/Extreme difficulty only.[3]

Some inner note charts work by changing to an alternative version of the song, or, exclusively in arcades, switching to a completely different song. As of the third-generation in 2011, these became separate songs.[3]

Notechart branching

Some songs can feature notechart branching[lower-alpha 10] in certain difficulty levels. According to the player's performance, the notechart changes between Normal notechart,[lower-alpha 11] Professional notechart,[lower-alpha 12] or Master notechart.[lower-alpha 13] On certain songs, like Hyakka Ryoran, a drumroll appears at the start to allow the player to pick any of three notecharts.

Gameplay options

Various aspects of the game can be changed to the player's liking:

  • Players can choose an alternate instrument or sound to play, instead of the classic Taiko drum.
  • Players can apply modifiers to change aspects of gameplay, like increased note speeds, reversed notecharts (red and blue notes interchanged) or randomized notecharts.
  • In console releases, players can choose to have the notechart played automatically and correctly.
  • In console releases, players can choose to have the song end early as soon as they miss one note.

Wadaiko Master

In May 2014, a number of Taiko no Tatsujin cabinets seemingly based on Momoiro Ver. were found in arcades in Brazil under the name of Wadaiko Master. These cabinets were translated into Portuguese and featured a significantly reduced song list, only containing 32 tracks including three Brazilian Music tracks exclusive to this edition. Wadaiko Master is offline-only, lacking network features such as Banapassport support and software updates present in other releases.

Wadaiko Master is the only instance of Taiko no Tatsujin being officially released in arcades outside of Asia.

Taiko no Tatsujin: Nijiiro Ver.

A Taiko no Tatsujin: Nijiiro Ver. arcade machine

Taiko no Tatsujin: Nijiiro Version,[lower-alpha 23] known officially as the March 2020 Version Renovation Kit,[lower-alpha 24] was released in Japanese arcades on 24 March 2020 and started the fourth generation of Taiko no Tatsujin arcade cabinets.[15] Arcade operators upgraded this title from the 2011 game by purchasing a hardware renovation kit, which includes a brand new arcade board based on System BNA1, a 120 Hz monitor, and a QR code reader.[16]

Nijiiro Ver. features new elements such as the Donderful Combo Crown,[lower-alpha 25] obtained by clearing a song with the highest possible level of accuracy. The song settings menu has been updated to allow for more options, including more control over the notes' playback speed. The default scoring system has been changed significantly, as it no longer awards bonuses for long combos and instead focused on accuracy. The "Classical" and "Variety" song genres have been removed, with their songs being assigned to other categories. There is also a vast amount of graphical updates, notably with the inclusion of horizontal text on the song select menu, similar to Drum 'n' Fun. On a livestream at JAEPO 2020, Etou, the game's director, said that this is to prepare the game for "overseas players".

An international version of Nijiiro Ver. was released for Asia and Oceania in Spring 2021. The game has seen a limited release in Australian arcades in October 2022. This version is multilingual and is playable in English, Traditional Chinese or Korean. Special, regional songs exclusive to the international version are also included upon release.[17]
