Namco Taiko Blog (17 October 2013) - Final details for Taiko Tournament 2013's finals

太鼓の達人 ドンだー!日本一決定戦2013

Puns aside, this week's blog entry is simply an update of an early October blog post

On October 26th (next Saturday), from 13:00 to about 17:30, the last phase of the 2013 arcade tourney will be held at NBGI's Future Lab. For those who won one of the lotteries for a spectator seat, there will be another lottery on the tourney's final day to decide who can watch the final matches live on stage (everyone else will have to make do with a few other rooms equipped with TV screens). Also, spectators won't be able to leave the building until the end of the event for security reasons.

The Taiko Team is also working on a live broadcast of the event for the public, as well as video recordings in high definition. For those who are in the venue, they can acquire the much-anticipated song Yuugen no Ran even for other friends by bringing a few extra cards; there are limitations to the number of friends, but this limit was not specified in the blog post. One last reminder: Yuugen no Ran won't be unlocked if the Banapassport has not been used with Sorairo before!

And... that's about it. See you next week!
