An Issho ni Waiwai Ensou Pickup
Now that the summer heat has set in and kids are let out of school for the long-awaited summer vacation, it's time to remind you that Issho ni Waiwai Ensou (いっしょにワイワイ演奏) is still a thing on Green ver. The mode is great for two-player action with friends and family, including fun blurbs according to how nicely together you are playing.

"Why don't you just move in and live together already-don?"

While not all songs are supported in the mode, the supported song list is growing. In fact, six out of the seven new songs listed above are going to have Waiwai support on day one (Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger being the exception). The following existing songs are also gaining Issho ni Waiwai Ensou support on July 25, 2019:

 ゲラゲラポーのうた Geragerapo no Uta
 君をのせて Kimi o Nosete
 崖の上のポニョ Gake no Ue no Ponyo
 ダン・ダン ドゥビ・ズバー! Dun Dun Doobie Zubah!
 初恋峠でゲラゲラポー Hatsukoitouge de Geragerapo
 祭り囃子でゲラゲラポー Matsuribayashi de Geragerapo
 人生ドラマチック Jinsei Dramatic
 いつも何度でも Itsumo Nando Demo
 妖怪ウォッチ2 元祖/本家/真打 Yo-kai Watch 2 Ganso/Honke/Shin'uchi


A Heat-haze Special Folder
Not sure which song to play for the summer heat? The new Summer Song Recommendation Special (夏のおすすめソング特集) folder should help, containing summer-licious picks like:

 夏祭り Natsu Matsuri
 前前前世 Zen Zen Zense
 天体観測 Tentai Kansoku
 ひまわりの約束 Himawari no Yakusoku
...and more!

Machina's AI Battle Performance Tuning
In addition to the slightly embarrassing Shin-uchi score glitch and other bugs (see coverage and past Namco Taiko Blog), the July 25 update also revamps the list of song choices eligible for points towards AI Battle Rank 10+.

.And that is all about AI Battle Performance in this post... in Japan, because...

The Asia ver. Tag-along
The right-align small text reveals that Asia ver. cabinets finally receives the long-awaited update (around) July 25, picking up contents from the last few Japan-only updates including Green ver. Summer Rewards Shop, Green ver. Ranking Dojo (up to 10-dan) and AI Battle Performance mode. The Asia ver. Facebook Fan Page has no corresponding post(s) regarding this so far though, so stay tuned.
