Sorry to everyone!
This was unexpected. After the Taiko no Tatsujin arcade announcement last week we have just found out that we missed two posts after that, one pertaining to Taiko 3DS and the other being the results of the second online tournament for Taiko 0. We'll post them here now.

Last Thursday, a few hours after the post with the details of Codename Katsu-Don (link), Namco posted a new entry for Taiko 3DS reminding us that the game is 3 weeks away from release (less than 2 now). As we've seen multiple times before, the game comes packed in with a special set of styluses, just like in all 3 Taiko DS games, except this one features 3D models of Don and Katsu on top instead of just their faces on stickers.
...cute, aren't they? But there's more styluses! It's a promotion from Japanese chain store Family Mart. Preorder the game from them and you will receive a second pair of styluses, this time in a very cool-looking apple green color, or if you will, Raruko's color.

With some incredible tie-ups in the borderline positions, the real Taiko pros showed up with scores higher than 1.2 million points, proving themselves to have extreme drumroll skills and a godly accuracy! Congratulations to the winners!
Like in the previous Miku no Shoushitsu tournament, the Top 100 players of the competition received another special title for their Donder Hiroba profiles.
