First up we have Drumroll da-don!, a drumroll game where Don and Katsu goes on an all-out battle to decide who triumphs as the drumroll king once and for all (nope). Overall, it plays like the old Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots toys but with a Taiko context.
The other is the a balance game titled Everybody Gather! Wobbly Festival da-don!. The objective is to stack as many Taiko-faced chips on a wobbly Don-chan, before everything come tumbling down. There are two modes to the game, the tower mode with the Hachimaki, and the seesaw mode with the Omikoshi top.
With these two, you can train your drumroll power and your concentration, which helps in playing the real Taiko game... right? (Disclaimer: effects vary by person)
Anyway, both of these toys are now in stores. Do check them out if you have the chance!
