Namco Taiko Blog (February 3 2017): Livestream Recap, JAEPO 2017 Edition

As revealed yesterday on the livestream, the details of Taiko no Tatsujin Yellow ver. attending JAEPO 2017 next week are textually and pictorially summarized by Daifuku today.

Before all, hopefully you remember that the dates of the event (February 10-12 2017, and the 10th is business-only day) and the location (Makuhari Messe Convention Center). Most crucial of all is that the Yellow ver. cabinets are at the Bandai Namco Entertainment booth in JAEPO 2017 and not the one at Tokaigi next door!

With the basics covered, we'll meet after the jump for the actual things you can do with the exhibiting cabinets and more.

The most attractive aspect will likely the song list. While you probably have seen it from our Quick Takeaway, here is it again but organized by parts:

Exhibiting Songs Part 1
First-hand Preview Licensed Songs (full inclusion versions)

Exhibition Songs Part 3

For the core Taiko fans, sorry that JAEPO will not give you the full-version glimpse of the four brand new songs (Get the full Ryuu to Kokuen no Himegimi now from 3DS3 DLC). They will just be charted from the same YouTube previews since released last night. You will have to wait for the actual release and then work for those Don Medals then.

For the goodies you can take home, take a shot with the Taiko no Tatsujin campaign poster and share it on Twitter with the hashtag #太鼓の達人イエロー (Taiko no Tatsujin Yellow), show it to the staff and get one of 176 Namco Original CDs (first 88 per day only).

A more limited stock of those CDs (up to seven) are also available via an ongoing Twitter campaign. Retweet the following tweet and stand a chance to win one! Drawing will be done in a later "Road to Yellow ver." livestream.

この春「#太鼓の達人イエロー」稼働予定！

The last Taiko no Tatsujin-related thing to happen in JAEPO is the Touhou Project x Taiko no Tatsujin rubber straps produced by Eikoh, coming soon as prizes for grab. Go to their booth in the expo to look at the first samples.
