Taiko no Tatsujin + - Update to 2.1.0 Version and Hokkori! Tamagotchi collab

New exciting news await Apple Taiko players! A new update has been added to Taiko no Tatsujin +, together with a new collaboration.

Version 2.1.0 is another major update, with lots of bug fixes, little visual tweaks on certain menu screens and new gameplay functions, such as the introduction of the Kimagure and Detarame modifiers and multiple game modifiers (thus bringing it up to par with the current arcade and console)

This new version comes along with another NBGI crossover, this time with the mobile phone game Hokkori! Tamagotchi. Simply put, the game is like a mobile version of Farmville, with Tamagotchi-related characters popping up in between sessions.

Since the game's soundtrack is nothing much, Taiko+ will be getting Tamagotchi songs from the anime instead, both in permanent and limited forms. From yesterday until November 20th, the theme songs from the most recent Tamagotchi Anime series (Tamagotchi! Miracle Friends) will be available to play for free. Play the song once and Tamagotchi will explode all over the main interface as well!



The opening theme, Miracle☆Travel (みらくる☆トラベル) is available to play from the beginning, while the ED, titled Itsuka Itsuka (いつかいつか) has to be unlocked by finding five Tamagotchi-related plants hidden in the Taiko game menus. This will also unlock more Tamagotchi menu backgrounds and some items for the Hokkori! Tamagotchi game.

But that's not all! A new song pack (the Tamagotchi Pack) was released with four of the most recent Tamagotchi songs, for 400 yen: Kirakira Every day, I★my★me★mine, Doremifa Sorairo and Rocking Heart! (ロックン・ハート!), the new Tamagotchi licensed song on Taiko Wii U's default tracklist. Rocking Heart! will also be available to play until the end of the campaign on Taiko Tori Houdai.

Hokkori! Tamagotchi will also feature Taiko no Tatsujin items and character until the end of the promotional period.
