After two great blogs by the Taiko Team, it seems the Taiko Wii 4 website was also updated without anyone noticing, with new songs and one new game mode! Let's see.
I'm really starting to think their online PV team only works one day a week lol
Alright, songs first. Only new ones will be shown- for all the songs at the same time you can check out our Wii4 page.
Like before, songs in bold and red are brand-new, while just bold means that it's an existing song making its first appearance on Wii (songs bound for New Taiko will still be red as they count as brand-new).

Six old songs in Namco Original and two more old ones in Classic? Hold your horses there- those are the poll winners! Nothing announced for the other genres yet though (Game Music got its poll winners though). Looks like the TGS rumor leak was completely true (except on the PSP DX songs, Namco look like they're being cagey with info that isn't promotional material or poll-chosen songs)
And now let's look at that game mode!
It's actually not new; this mode was seen before once on Taiko no Tatsujin Portable 2. It's a Guide Mode you can access during regular play and it allows you to replay any part of a song you want for practice! Is there a stream you just can't pass? A fast part of a song that confuses you? This would help a great deal....I can't wait to try this on Kita Saitama (is aiming for FC).
You can skip stanzas, or go back, and if the song has forked paths you can even press A to swap between paths! Very useful addition.
