The Nintendo of America YouTube account has uploaded a new trailer promoting the upcoming release of Bandai Namco's Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum ‘n’ Fun!.
As previously noted, the game aims to replicate the Japanese arcade experience with an actual drum set peripheral. Being a release on the Switch, the soundtrack will include not only the regular tracklist but also popular songs from the Splatoon, Pokémon and Kirby series.
This latest trailer highlights the fun party games you'll be able to play with your friends. There are more than 20 of these mini games on offer, with each one requiring well-timed drumming to succeed.
Take a look at the trailer above, and tell us if you're anticipating this title's November release.

The game is sorely lacking in songs compared to the arcade version. Unless more can be unlocked I was very disappointed with it.
@Heavyarms55 I kind of have to agree, there was even one released on the wii that had more songs then this one.
Still looking forward to it though. I have a big soft spot for Taiko.
@Heavyarms55 Yeah more songs do get unlocked as you clear other songs.
@PipeGuy64Bit Well that's something. I don't like it though. I'd much rather just play the songs l like.
I tried the demo, but the motion controls worked very poorly. I'm probably doing something wrong, but it registered several beats I never intended to do and the timing was often off.
Does anywhere have the game plus drums for pre-order? I have only found the game on it's own.
Why couldn't they bring out the drum accessory in the west??
@Bunkerneath They will in Europe.
@Strumpan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQpiaGaJjwk Here's a tutorial on how to use the drum stick joycons
@Ogbert: Play-Asia is you best bet: https://www.play-asia.com/taiko-drum-controller-for-nintendo-switch/13/70c247
Although it's out of stock at the moment.
@RadioShadow Yeah I'd seen it there but it's supposedly coming to Europe...yet nowhere stocking the game seems to realise that?
Oh well, thank you anyway!
@Ogbert If you are located in Germany, there is a bundle on Amazon that probably has the drum included (according to the prize):

I bought this game and I'm pretty happy with it in general... But those mini-games. I get absolutely DESTROYED! They look so cute and easy, but I just can't seem to get the hang of them and fail miserably every time.
