Made by the same team who develop the equally insane, WarioWare titles, Rhythm Heaven is imbued with that same sense of irreverent charm that makes the games’ 100+ stages a consistently bewildering treat. The visuals might be simplistic and the premise and gameplay is certainly straightforward, but in its own way, Rhythm Paradise represents Nintendo at its imaginative best. Rhythm Paradise Megamix might sound like a budget title (I’m sure there is a good reason why it has different names in both the US and Japan – Rhythm Heaven and Rhythm Tengoku respectively), but I can assure you, this is about as far as you can get from a budget product. With Paper Mario: Color Splash proving a rare but much needed success on Wii U, Rhythm Paradise Megamix has been somewhat snuck out on the admittedly better supported, 3DS, and while it is unlikely to steal any attention away from the excitement building around Nintendo’s latest foray into the hardware market, it is a fantastic game in its own right and yet another reminder of the impressive levels of diversity found amidst the 3DS’ increasingly spectacular library of games.ĭespite the ability to play games on the go, it’s still not clear if the Nintendo Switch will completely replace Nintendo’s traditionally separate handheld business, but whatever the case, and whatever the future holds for Nintendo, we can only hope that they will continue to deliver games as brilliantly bonkers as this.
With all of the hullabaloo surrounding the Nintendo Switch reveal, it’s easy to forget that there are still games being released for the current crop of Nintendo hardware.
