Nintendo Announces Rhythm Heaven Megamix For The West
Nintendo announced in its most recent Direct that the newest iteration in the Rhythm Heaven franchise will be making it to American shores. Rhythm Heaven Megamix functions as a “best of” compilation of the series’ rhythmic mini-games.
Rhythm Heaven Megamix is a blend of old and new mini-games infused with vibrant colors and bizarre humor. These mini-games are broken up with story fragments, and they eventually culminate into a mashup “remix” stage.
The new title boasts 100 mini-games: 70 from previous titles, 20 completely new ones, and 10 reimagined from the series' past. This includes games from the original Japanese-only Rhythm Tengoku, which never made into the cartridge slots of American Game Boy Advances.
Rhythm Heaven Megamix will release for Nintendo 3DS sometime in 2016. To read our thoughts on Rhythm Heaven Fever for the Wii, head over here.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
