Rhythm Heaven, known in Japanese as Rhythm Tengoku and as Rhythm Paradise in European languages, can best be described as WarioWare meets Elite Beat Agents. The series is a collaboration between Nintendo (specifically, the team that develops WarioWare) and Tsunku♂, a music producer known for heading the Hello! Project. The first game in the series was released on the GBA in late 2006, making it the last game that Nintendo developed for the system, and later in arcades as a joint project between Nintendo and Sega. Naturally this meant that it would be released only in Japan, not unlike the case with Mother 3. Despite this, the DS sequel (known as Rhythm Tengoku Gold in Japanese) would receive an overseas release to a positive reception, with two more sequels following.The gameplay is fairly simple. The game is divided into sets of four or five music-based mini-games, which are completed by pressing buttons (or flicking and tapping the touch screen) in time with the rhythm. Upon completion of each mini-game, the player's performance is evaluated and given a ranking: Try Again, OK, or Superb. If a player gets a Try Again rating, they can't progress to the next mini-game until they can get one of the higher ratings. A Superb rating awards the player with a medal; collecting these allows bonus features such as endless mini-games to be unlocked. Sometimes the game challenges the player to complete a mini-game flawlessly. Doing so nets a Perfect rating, which unlocks bonus information on the mini-game or adds another song to the sound test. After completing a set of games, the player is challenged to a Remix game that includes each game of the set. Completing the Remix unlocks the next set.The mini-games themselves are exactly what one would expect from the team responsible for WarioWare: Quirky, bizarre, and generally addictive. Examples include: Hitting baseballs expelled by a flowerpot while floating in space Helping a rabbit jump across whales and turtles to reach the moon Stomping around a garden to pluck beets from the ground Shaking and tossing flasks to create hearts in a laboratory devoted to studying the science of love Controlling a member of a quartet of dancing shrimp Piloting a rocket powered by anthropomorphic tuning forks across a surreal landscape Translating what's being said by a jellyfish-like alien on live television Helping a sentient street toss fruit, rolling out of pipes, into basketball hoopsAnd that's just the tip of the iceberg. Half Rhythm Game, half Minigame Game, Rhythm Heaven is a definite hidden gem in Nintendo's catalog. On an interesting note, it is one of the few rhythm games to actually be about "rhythm" and not just rapid timing. That is most prominently featured in Lockstep in Heaven, where you'll cruise after you get how to switch from the beat to off-beat, but completely flop if you just try to "muscle" your way through.The third iteration, Rhythm Heaven Fever, also known in Japanese as Minna no Rhythm Tengoku (Everyone's Rhythm Heaven), was released in the States in February 2012. The European version (called Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise) was, after an enormous wait, released in July 2012.Rhythm Heaven/Paradise Megamix, known as Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+ in Japanese, is the fourth installment in the series, released in June 2015 in Japan, June 2016 in North America, and October 2016 in Europe. It contains 108 games — 30 new and 78 returning from the previous three, some with new variations. It has no physical release in North America, though, only digital (unforunately, because of this, the game was delisted when the 3DS eShop closed down on March 27, 2023, meaning it is no longer available to purchase in North America).Tsunku♂ has expressed an interest in making a fifth entry for the Nintendo Switch, but only time will tell if that actually happens.Note: For shorthand, we'll be calling the GBA version Tengoku, the DS version Heaven, the Wii version Fever, and the 3DS version Megamix. | |

Starfish Language | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_115b9907 | comment |
Starfish Language: First Contact, a minigame in Megamix, features an astronaut interpreting for an alien lifeform. The alien speaks in a gibberish language consisting of squid-like symbols, and the astronaut translates it into his native tongue. It's inverted with its sequel, where the human speaks in gibberish and the alien translates for an audience of other extraterrestrials. | |

| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_127fc252 | comment |
Creator Cameo: Just text "STAFF" on the Police Call toy in Fever. The same cameo is unlocked in Megamix after collecting every badge. Tsunku♂, the creator and main composer of the series, is the voice of the blue frog in Frog Hop. He sings the Japanese version of "Young Love Rock 'n' Roll", and that's also him saying "Thank you verrry much!" in the English version. Tanaka Soushi, the vocalist behind "WISH - I Can't Wait for You", appears playing guitar near the end of Remix 5 in Tengoku. | |

Regional Bonus: The European/Australian versions of Fever has both the Japanese and English soundtracks, as well as the voices. The Japanese version of Fever has an Endless Game titled "Manzai". Because it was too difficult to translate properly, localized versions contain a remake of Mr. Upbeat from Tengoku instead. | |

The Artifact | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e | comment |
The Artifact: In Megamix, Samurai Slice (the one from Fever that is unlocked in the shop) still displays "To be continued..." at the end, even though Samurai Slice 2 isn't in this title. By contrast, Blue Birds' "To be continued..." is replaced with "The end", since Blue Birds 2 isn't in this one either. Also in Megamix, Clap Trap still has the doll's hands colored differently like in Fever (which corresponded to Player 1 and 2 in Fever), even though Clap Trap is only played with one player in Megamix instead of with two like in Fever. | |

Antepiece | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_13dcb20b | comment |
Antepiece: Rhythm Rally has a complete static camera in both the original Heaven and the remake in Megamix. The original game's Rhythm Rally 2, meanwhile, rotates the camera all over the place to throw off your muscle memory and force you to rely on the rhythm. In the original, they launched you into it with no warning, but Megamix actually adds an antepiece to it. Rhythm Rally is part of the new Barbershop Remix, which features the camera slowly rotating throughout — not enough to trip you up, but enough to nudge you into paying attention to the rhythm rather than the visuals, prepping you for the more obvious camera swerves in Cosmic Rhythm Rally. | |

Fake Longevity | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_14184bc7 | comment |
Fake Longevity: This trope comes into play when trying to unlock the bonuses. As the game is played, the player is randomly given a chance to get a perfect on a randomly selected game. If the player fails three times, they must wait for another random chance. Once the player gets gold medals on all 50 games, they have unlimited "perfect" opportunities, however, it still goes to another one after three attempts. Made more annoying by the fact that some games will require you to perform perfectly (at least for the hard parts) just to get a Superb, making the Perfect system feel arbitrary at times. In the arcade version of Tengoku, random minigames will start to show "Go for a Perfect!" if you're doing perfect so far partway through. This is to balance out the lack of saving your completion status. The goat-feeding minigame in Megamix reeks of this, as it serves no other purpose than to unlock Cosmetic Awards to go towards 100% Completion, and it takes an excessively large amount of grinding coins to reach the required levels. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Bossa Nova's vocals are... certainly something. They're made worse in the English version, somehow. The "Great bumping!" caption doesn't really help matters... This was apparently an entirely intentional choice, as the sound designer said in an interview that he saw the game's cute visuals and thought they needed an adult edge. | |

Where It All Began: Starting with Heaven, the last original minigame in each installment is a variant on Karate Man, the very first game in the series (as well as the first game played, in Megamix's case). The last Remixes in both Tengoku and Heaven end with Karate Man, as well. | |

Hard Mode Filler: After the credits roll in the first three games, you'll be presented with a few extra sets of minigames which are simply harder, Palette Swapped versions of previous minigames. Sometimes they involve new gimmicks or gameplay mechanics, with Fever having more involved sequel games than the previous two, while Megamix does away with this altogether by mixing in sequels with new games up to the end. | |

| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Besides the 3 epilogues, some games have different ending animations depending on if or if not you hit the final note. Super Samurai Slice, for example, ends with the princess running off and the samurai blushing with embarrassment if he fails to counter attack the final demon. | |

The Cameo | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Several characters from past Rhythm Heaven games make occasional appearance in later games. The onions and beets from Tengoku's Rhythm Tweezers appear on the books in Fever's Cheer Readers, as well as the character from Night Walk, DJ Yellow from Heaven's DJ School, and the Space Dancers from Tengoku. The beets also make an appearance in Heaven's Crop Stomp. A Sneaky Spirit can be seen in Heaven's Big Rock Finish. Halfway through Freeze Frame in Heaven a few characters from Tengoku appear watching the race. They are the Rap Men, The Clappy Trio, the Space Dancers, and the monkeys from Tap Dance. A rat from Rat Race, a Sneaky Spirit, and the ninja from Ninja Bodyguard also sometimes show up in the photos. In Megamix, some of the racers are also holding the type of bunny doll seen in Fever's, Samurai Slice 2. Additionally, in Remix 3, the white penguin from Showtime can be seen in the photos. Tram from Tengoku can be seen on the rating screens of Remix 2 and Figure Fighter 2 in Heaven and Fever, respectively. The character from Tengoku's Night Walk can be seen in Heaven's The Dazzles, hanging on to the stars that appear. Texting "555-ROCK-OUT" in Heaven's phone toy results in the Rap Men's rap song from Tengoku. The instructor from Tengoku's Marching Orders makes an appearance in Fever's Flipper-Flop, this time instructing a bunch of seals. The girl on the platform from The☆Bon Odori shows up not only on Remix 7's results image in Heaven, but also in the background of Fever's Remix 9. Radio Lady in Heaven appears wearing the Marchers' outfit from Tengoku in Shoot-'Em-Up 2. Multiple characters from Heaven, such as the scientists from Love Lab and the Blue Birds, can be seen outside the window in Fever's Munchy Monk. Pictures of the Rap Men from Tengoku can be seen at the end of Fever's Love Rap and its sequel. DJ Yellow and his student make two cameos in Megamix: their cameo from Cheer Readers, and as alternate heads for the Air Batter during the Lush Remix. As seen on the cover of the game, a member of The Clappy Trio appears as the conductor of Glee Club in Heaven. Munchy Monk appears as the employee in "Packing Pests". In Megamix's Super Samurai Slice 2, the Wandering Samurai leaps onto the Ninja Dog's hawk from Heaven. One of the aliens at Alien Ground Control in Megamix's Second Contact is the extraterrestrial in the flying saucer from Spaceball in Tengoku. | |

Difficulty by Acceleration | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_2168bdf7 | comment |
Difficulty by Acceleration: The challenge courses in Megamix often increase the tempo of the games, which usually makes them more difficult, though a few become a bit easier that way. A few minigames throughout the series mix things up not by changing the patterns of inputs needed, but by altering the pace of the music to attempt to throw off the player. Tengoku's Sneaky Spirits and the Fever incarnation of Built to Scale are good examples. | |

Last Lousy Point | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_23168b93 | comment |
Last Lousy Point: The badge for getting the goat to level 200 in Megamix. To elaborate, feeding the goat is done via a Pachinko minigame that gets harder at each 10-level interval. To further elaborate, the goat will likely be around level 40 by the time you've done everything else in the game (including all of the Challenges and Perfect Campaigns), and the game starts getting into Pachinko Hell territory at around 70 and becomes flat out unfair for the last 10 levels. Have fun. | |

Unwanted Assistance | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_24b88e85 | comment |
Unwanted Assistance: Double-subverted with the Cheer Readers, in-universe. You'd think obnoxiously cheering in a library would annoy the hell out of people studying there, but their cheering somehow works! The kid in the Double Date game even praises the fact that he got an A on a recent test with the help of their cheering. Of course, this is all assuming that you did it well. If you screw up and get a Try Again, people aren't as appreciative. | |

Palette Swap | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_2557e3a9 | comment |
Palette Swap: In each Remix and subsequent sequel, the characters have different clothes and color palettes just to fit with the theme. However, said themes are considerably more elaborate than an average palette swap, such as The Clappy Trio being transformed from disco into the Wild West, or Remix 1 in Fever being entirely tropical-themed. | |

Funny Background Event | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_26eb6287 | comment |
Funny Background Event: Odds are you won't notice them due to focusing on what you're hearing, but quite a few minigames, especially in Fever, have things going on in the background, and some of them can be amusing. In Double Date from Fever, every time a football is kicked up on-time, you can see it fall in the background and get caught. This continues into Double Date 2, where barnyard animals will catch the football in the air. In both versions of Working Dough, the Game and Watch guy leaves, and he can actually be seen in one of the balls that the player bounces. He then commandeers a Humongous Mecha in the background. One of the things the Spaceball minigame from Tengoku does to mess up your play (coupled with copious Astronomic Zoom) is having the batter wear various silly masks. When asked about it in the associated email, he always dodges the question. In Tengoku, near the end of Power Calligraphy, some dancers will appear on the sides of the screen. During the Karate Man portions of Fever's Remix 9, a cat can be seen just behind Karate Joe. It can even be seen eating a fish a few times. Near the end of LumBEARjack in Megamix, some more cats will appear, and start to dance. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: The counting in Munchy Monk is in Chinese in the Japanese version. In Kung Fu Ball, the text on the neon sign on the right-hand side of the screen (利é 夢) doesn't say anything intelligible in Chinese (which you might assume given the minigame's theme), but it can be read as "rizumu" ("rhythm") in Japanese. Power Calligraphy, for the most part, consists of real Japanese characters. レ is katakana and stands for the sound "re". The dash is a comma. 力 is kanji that means "power". å·± is kanji that roughly means "self". 寸 stands for an obsolete unit of measure a little longer than an inch. 心 is kanji that means "heart". The last symbol is "tsurunihamarumarumushi"; simply a face made up of Japanese characters, based on the Henohenomoheji. | |

Easter Egg | |

Easter Egg: At the end of Honeybee Remix in Megamix, Karate Joe can punch away his thought about pancakes. In Fever, when Samurai Slice finishes, Wandering Samurai can slice the "To be continued..." text that appears on-screen. In Quiz Show from Tengoku and Megamix, pressing the buttons over 99 times will make the counter explode. Doing this even more will cause the host's counter to explode, followed by the Quiz sign in the background. In Megamix, holding L and R while selecting a song from the museum or starting an epilogue slideshow accesses a drumming mode, where you can drum along to the song you picked using the buttons. | |

| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_2b7d29e1 | comment |
Artifact Title: The "Built to Scale" rhythm game in its various incarnations. It was named as such in Heaven (the first game to be localized) because that incarnation was about flinging rods to a harmonic scale. The version present in Fever and Megamix, though, keeps the same name despite having nothing to do with harmonic scales— and ditto to Polyrhythm in Tengoku's Fan Translation. | |

Gratuitous English | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_2e6a41e0 | comment |
Gratuitous English: In general, the counting for each game is usually in English even in the Japanese version. "Wan! Tsu! Tree! Fow!" The Japanese version of Cheer Readers from Fever ("Let's everybody go!"). The music for Karate Man in Tengoku has this as well, which qualifies for "weirdest lyrics in any Rhythm Heaven game ever". All of the speech in Space Dance, even if the game's vocal language is set to English. In fact, the English version has an entirely new intentionally Engrish voice track. Given Space Gramps speaks in Engrish even in text, it's practically a running gag of the game. | |

Game-Breaking Bug: Remix 6 in Heaven contains one of these: if you're completely accurate in your timing, you'll end up tapping the touchscreen while the game is transitioning from Space Soccer to Lockstep, meaning that your input isn't registered. This can be a real slap in the face. The workaround is to tap the screen just after the game finishes transitioning, which allows your input to be registered just within the timing window required. | |

Once all those towers are cleared, a second credits sequence plays in which Tibby does go back to Heaven World, only for the player to subsequently get a letter saying that things have gone wrong up there, meaning there is still more to do. | |

Endless Game | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_41d0e801 | comment |
Endless Game: Several in each game, unlocked by earning medals on the main games. Most of the time, they're completely unique games, while other times they're looping versions of a main game. Either way, the goal is to go as far as you can without failing. The Rhythm Toys also apply, but unlike the Endless Games they're just for fun and don't keep track of high scores. | |

No Fair Cheating: In Megamix's Final Remix, if you try to cheese your way through the "Clap Trap" segment by repeatedly tapping/pressing A, the game will penalize you by locking out your inputs for the duration of the subsequent "Jungle Gymnast" and "Karate Man Senior" segments. | |

Pressure-Sensitive Interface | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_4387800d | comment |
Pressure-Sensitive Interface: The Nintendo DS' touchscreen can tell between a light and a hard press. In the game, it's programmed in a way that you can hold the stylus on the screen and flick. It also tells the difference between light and hard taps. Moai Doo Wop, in particular, requires the player to use both light and hard taps within the same game. | |

Player Nudge | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_450a63b5 | comment |
Player Nudge: There's usually something on the screen that moves to the rhythm as a visual hint. Even more subtly, if you need a hint of what's coming up next, you should look at the girl. The pitcher in Exhibition Match, the cheerleaders in Drummer Duel, and MC Adore in Love Rap are excellent examples of this. It's also usually a girl's voice that counts for you. In Bossa Nova, if you mess up, the voices briefly say their cues louder before going back to their... normal cues. In Samurai Slice in Fever, if you mess up during the part where the story covers the screen, the words and pictures will get knocked out of the way so that you can see yourself. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Tengoku has a significant number of differences from its sequels: There are two mini-games (Quiz Show and Night Walk) where you can fail in the middle of the song, rather than being judged on your overall performance at the end. Quiz also lacks music entirely outside of the introductory scene, making it the only game where rhythm is completely optional (although it helps remember the number of presses, and it's necessary to get the Skill Star in Megamix). There are eight sets of six mini-games rather than ten sets of five. The background music isn't always tailored to match up with the gameplay, some games only having looping music following the same general beat. Some games also re-use the same music for both versions and only change the tempo and cue patterns. This hasn't completely disappeared in later titles; Heaven has some games where the sequel uses an extended version of the first game's song (Shoot-'em-up, Moai Doo-Wop, and Fillbots), while Fever's version of Built to Scale uses a looping and tempo-changing short tune. However, it is much less common on the whole. Several of Tengoku's mini-games don't have any practice at all, which makes it even more like WarioWare. Some completely new gameplay elements are introduced during remixes (the multi-hit enemies in Sick Beats and the sign blocking your view in Rhythm Tweezers). In later games, remixes review what you already know. There are significantly fewer audio cues, meaning the player must use their eyes just as much as their ears in many of the mini-games. On a related note, the game is a lot less willing to use visual Interface Screw. Only five of the 25 games use itnote Marching Orders' soldiers being scrolled offscreen at the end, Air Batter using extreme zooming, the Sneaky Spirits lowering behind the wall, Iai Slice/Samurai Slice creating clouds of mist that obscure the enemies, and the aforementioned sign in Rhythm Tweezers from Remix 8. Later games use more interface screw to force the player into following the rhythm instead of watching for cues. The remix featuring all the games is not the final remix, but rather the sixth of eight. Speaking of Sick Beats, it's the only game in the series where you're allowed to fully miss an input and not have it count against you, as long as you manage to hit the virus before it reaches the heart. There are more minigames based specifically around Japanese culture, with no less than five (Iai Slash/Samurai Slice, The☆Bon Odori, Fireworks, Power Calligraphy, and Ninja Bodyguard). Later games tone this down to only one or two, and otherwise keep the themes more general. The original version of Karate Man features a "Flow" meter. Successful hits cause the meter to rise, near misses cause it to drop, and a complete miss empties the meter entirely. It must be above a certain level for Karate Joe to punch boulders. This is the only game where missing an input has a significant effect on the rest of the minigame, rather than just the rating. Later versions of Karate Man remove the meter, and in Megamix's direct remake of the original it's completely absent. The recurring minigame "Kumitate"note meaning "assembly", also known as "Built to Scale" in the English versions of Heaven and Fever, is themed around manipulating pegs in different ways within a factory made out of cubes. Tengoku's equivalent of this minigame is named "Polyrhythm" instead of using this later-established name. Traditionally, the games are reskinned according to a theme when they appear in Remixes, sans the Final-Exam Boss. However, in Tengoku, the only full reskins are for Remixes 3 and 5 (the vocal Remixes); 1, 2, and 4 keep the games the same, while 7 and 8 use a mix of new and old skins, including different ones for the same games (Tap Trial in particular has five reskins in total). Heaven retained this weirdness slightly; Remix 8 only reskins Dog Ninja, while Remix 9 uses a mix of old and new designs. The first two games in the series had a side feature in the form of music lessons unlocked via medals. Tengoku had "Drum Lessons", where you have to copy increasingly complex drum patterns by using every button on the GBA, while Heaven had "Guitar Lessons", which were special games of Rockers set to the music tracks of other games. Both music lessons used a letter-grading system, and the latter was connected to a "Battle of the Bands" Brutal Bonus Level where you played though several songs in a row. Fever quietly dropped music lessons and made Nostalgia Levels the third thing medals unlock. | |

The Left-Hand, Right-Hand, and Final Remixes in Megamix also follow suit, with Blue Bear, The Clappy Trio, and LumBEARjack respectively. Remix 8 in Tengoku, the final stage in the game, ends with Karate Man, the first stage in the game. | |

Nostalgia Level | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_56b5a6b7 | comment |
Nostalgia Level: Karate Man, the first mini-game of Tengoku, makes a reappearance near the end of both Heaven and Fever. The Built to Scale game from Heaven has a factory setting much like Polyrhythm from the first game. The Built to Scale game in Fever manages to cram two Nostalgia Levels into one by combining the elements from both aforementioned games. Fever also contains four remastered stages from Tengoku as unlockables, and the Mini-Game Credits sequence is a remake of Night Walk, also from Tengoku. The English version of Fever, to make up for removing Manzai, remade Mr. Upbeat, an Endless Game from Tengoku. Exaggerated in Megamix. The game has seventy-eight total levels returning from the previous three games. | |

Fever pulls this off in its 10th Remix. The last section of this medley is Packing Pests, and it tricks you into thinking it's finished, only to start up a moment later with a few more beats, then fades to black... and does it again when the music picks up once more for a few final beats.

Creative Closing Credits | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_5f91efd9 | comment |
Creative Closing Credits: In Heaven a minigame named Airboarder plays as the credits scroll, which becomes playable later. While it returns in Megamix, it doesn't serve as the credits. Fever likewise has a remake of Night Walk from Tengoku, featuring Marshal as the playable character. In Megamix, the credits appear as you first ascend from the land of Rainbow Towers challenge to the sky. The credits still play if you didn't complete all the remixes required, but you'll stop and fall down at the end. | |

Big Eater: Any version of Munchy Monk counts as this. Forthington, the cat from Air Rally, seems to be one in the reading material. Whoever is holding the fork in Fork Lifter. Also, Beary the Blue Bear from Megamix. While he's binge eating to forget his girlfriend, he's shown to have quite an appetite even before their breakup. | |

Nintendo Hard | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_62259825 | comment |
Nintendo Hard: The series is known for being rhythmically strict. There's no "Marvelous", "Great", or "Good" for each beat, either you hit it or you didn't. It becomes even more suffocating when you have to go for a "Perfect". Megamix is a little different; the main timing window a little looser, making medals and Perfects a bit easier to obtain. However, a tighter "Ace" window exists, making it extremely difficult to get maximum points. The way the games grade your performance flies directly in the face of common rhythm game logic. Whereas almost every other rhythm game in existence scores you note-for-note, this series instead grades two or three specific areas and bases your score based on how well you did in each of those. A perfect example comes in Heaven's Built to Scale: You can play the entire rest of the level flawlessly, but if you mess up on the very last note, you'll still only get an OK rating because that last note is graded all by itself. Megamix at least attempts to steer away from this by giving you a numeric score at the end that tells you how close you are to the next rating, so you can at least gauge your progress instead of doing your best and praying the game liked it enough. Tengoku has an arcade port where you play one block of six stages. The catch? Getting less than a Superb costs you one life, and you only get three lives.note Okay, so technically, you use up one life when you enter a stage, and get it back on a Superb. Still the same end result. Yes, that means getting an OK instead of Try Again will still cost you one life! Worse, the cabinet buttons are somewhat poorly constructed, resulting in buttons getting stuck frequently—pray it doesn't go off on a platform edge in Night Walk! Megamix has challenge courses that require you to play several games in a row under a "three strikes" system. Many of them increase the tempo of the games, and require nailing a lot of Aces, finishing the game with less than three misses, or getting scores well above the medal threshold. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Megamix might have a story, but it does very little to tie the stages themselves into the story, only explaining that clearing them creates "Flow", which the protagonist needs to progress on his journey back home. Considering that the stages can be about anything and can have you playing as anyone and anything, there isn't really a way to tie any of these together anyway. The terminology used to refer to the stages implies that they're each an in-universe videogame, but nothing is really clear. | |

Interface Screw | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_66f763c0 | comment |
Interface Screw: As a general rule, if a game can be played solely off of the audio cues, then the visual cues will be messed with or obscured at some point in the game. Some of the harder games love darkening everything or putting things in your way, forcing you to rely only on your rhythm and your ability to detect audio cues. One of the most notorious examples comes in Samurai Slice in Fever, which blocks the entire freaking screen with translucent slides, creating a Fake Difficulty for what would otherwise be extremely basic games. Heaven is also notorious for blocking out 95% of the screen for the third measure of Built to Scale. And this is the very first stage, mind you. On the other hand, it is inverted in Built to Scale 2. It looks like it'll do it again...but easily catches "prepared" players off guard by sending another thing while the lights are still off. The lights come back on immediately after this one. One of the challenges in Megamix has the camera slowly pan out to reveal the minigame screen clutched in the jaws of a monster. The speed of the panning increases the worse you do, with it slowing/zooming in slightly for every perfect beat you hit. If you don't perform well enough, eventually the screen will get so small you can't see it properly any more, the monster will eat it, and you'll fail the challenge. This is the main gimmick of Tengoku's "Spaceball" and its sequel "Spaceball 2", where the camera constantly zooms in and out to disorient the player. Tengoku's "Samurai Slice" has a thick fog cover the screen during parts. It's especially bad on the original model GBA, as the screen isn't very bright to begin with. In Tengoku's Remix 8, the "Rhythm Tweezers" parts have the hairs covered up by a sign that reads "Don't peek". Halfway through Heaven's "Freeze Frame", the view of the other side of the racetrack gets blocked by spectators. "Rhythm Rally 2" in Heaven has the camera constantly pan between different angles to disorient the player "Air Rally" in Fever has clouds that will occasionally cover what's going on. This is Downplayed in Megamix, likely due to hardware limitations. Bossa Nova in Fever has various things in the foreground cover the titular characters. Halfway through "Monkey Watch" in Fever, a monkey in a hot air balloon will fly across the screen waving in an attempt to distract the player. | |

The Power of Love: A lot of the games deal with love, and so do most of the vocal songs. It goes further than the usual portrayal, however, in that there are also songs that deal with the downsides of love ("Struck by the Rain" and "Lonely Storm" cover a breakup, and "I Love You, My One and Only" is about unrequited love). | |

The Reveal: Several minigames throughout the series have some kind of twist at the end. Played for laughs in Exhibition Match in Fever. The reason it takes so long for the pitcher's ball to reach the batter from behind the curtain? A monkey catches the ball mid-flight, waits, then tosses it out to the batter. Screwbot Factory apparently has you screwing the heads onto tiny robots, but the OK and Superb endings reveal that they're actually Humongous Mechas. At a certain point in the game Packing Pests, the camera moves, revealing that the employee is Munchy Monk. Tap Troupe has the troupe's faces at the bottom and their feet at the top. The end reveals that they're actually extremely tall, thus the reason for the frames. Getting a perfect in Heaven's Remix 10 reveals that the Blue Birds' drill sergeant is actually the leader of the Rhythm League. There's a heartwarming one the end of Blue Bear. He hasn't actually broken up; he's just having a bad dream. | |

Marathon Level | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_6dc206c9 | comment |
Marathon Level: While most levels usually take around one and a half to two minutes, the first three games all have a remix that combines every other level in the game; in Fever, it clocks in at well over three minutes. In Megamix the medley is split into three parts, but the final remix is still nearly four minutes in length. Some of the later Challenge Train stages in Megamix can string as many as eight games together at once. "Frog Hop" in Heaven (and remastered in Megamix) features a complete song with verses, choruses and a bridge section, clocking in at just over two minutes - not super-long compared to some of the longer remixes, but it requires almost continual, repeated button pressing to a fairly fast rhythm (156 bpm) with no breaks, so it quickly becomes exhausting! | |

Disc-One Final Boss | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_6de71c57 | comment |
Disc-One Final Boss: Each game has a Remix that comes right before the credits and marks the divide between original games and Hard Mode Filler. Remix 6 in Tengoku, which is oddly a Final-Exam Boss of all the previous minigames. In the other games, the final remix takes this role. Remix 6 in Heaven has sort of a spacey feel to it, and most of the characters sport funny wigs or accessories. Remix 7 in Fever has a cosmic Level in the Clouds vibe, with characters having cool shades and spacesuits. While Megamix is different from other games in the series, Lush Remix still qualifies as the disc-one final boss, as it takes place before the fake-out ending. Since it's the game's first remix in general, it also shows the player that the easy-mode gloves are off. | |

Guide Dang It!: Minor one in Megamix. Quiz Show challenges you to hit the buttons the same number of times as the quiz show host. What it doesn't tell you is that the skill star for this game can only be earned by closely matching the host's rhythm. This is also the way to boost your score beyond 80. In Megamix there are hidden goodies in each of the Endless Games that are made available in the museum by reaching particular scores. Not only does the game never once tell you of their existence, not even from a random tip from the Barista, the scores themselves are incredibly hard to reach and will escape the notice of anyone not that interested in the Endless Games. note The minimum scores needed are 30 for Coin Toss, 120 for Sick Beats, 20 for Chargin' Chicken, and 40 for Clap Trap. | |

Megamix averts this, and doesn't really have a Noob Bridge like the other games. The only viable games are Fruit Basket (going purely by the structure of tiers being defined by the collection of games), Sumo Brothers (if you don't consider it the Wake-Up Call Boss of the Lush Tower), or Catchy Tune 2 (going purely by the structure of tiers being defined by the remixes). None of those three are nearly as punishing, or infamous, as Moai Doo-Wop or Monkey Watch, with Fruit Basket even being entirely possible to do off of visuals alone. | |

Excuse Plot: Megamix has a story than amounts to "Tibby fell down from Heaven World and needs to go back, but his way is blocked by people who need him to restore their Flow". Of course, you restore the Flow by playing rhythm games that are almost always unrelated to the story. Tibby starts Lampshading this later on. | |

Colour-Coded for Your Convenience | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_735b4101 | comment |
Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: The first seven remixes in Megamix, where they are all in a Tower each to form a rainbow, to the point it'd be just as easy to name the remixes after their predominant color. Also in Megamix, the Gatekeeper Trio are, from easiest to hardest, yellow (Saffron), blue (Saltwater), and red (Paprika). Additionally in Megamix, Karate Man's light bulbs are color-coded depending on the upcoming combo. Yellow bulbs indicate a kick is coming up, while blue bulbs call for an uppercut. | |

Kaizo Trap | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_75f38750 | comment |
Kaizo Trap: Fever pulls this off in its 10th Remix. The last section of this medley is Packing Pests, and it tricks you into thinking it's finished, only to start up a moment later with a few more beats, then fades to black... and does it again when the music picks up once more for a few final beats. Fake-Out Fade-Out indeed. In Monkey Watch and Flock Step, in which you must continue the beat all the way until the stage fades out completely, with no accompaniment from the music for the last few seconds. People going for a Perfect may be caught off guard when they realize there are a few more inputs at the very end than they expected. Tengoku's Night Walk has this as a result of its unique win condition: you can get through the song and even maintain a perfect by only jumping when you absolutely need to... but you can't actually successfully complete the game without jumping on a preset number of boxes (many more than is required to leisurely reach the goal otherwise) without falling to your doom at the very end, at which point your Perfect streak will also shatter just to rub it in that much more. | |

Later-Installment Weirdness | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_7b21ef92 | comment |
Later-Installment Weirdness: Megamix has a few differences from the first three installments: There's a plot framing the game to give you a reason to play through the minigames. The strict "hit the beat or missed it" timing is still present, but now there's visual representation on the bottom screen showing how closely you hit the beat, with each minigame giving you a star for hitting one specific beat in it exactly. There's a meter to show a player's performance along with the two or three sets of comments after each mini-game. Fever also had a meter that rated performance, but it was only used during the multiplayer mode. Medals are still here, but have lost their role of unlocking extras. Instead there are coins, which are spent like currency to unlock bonuses instead of unlocking them when you reach certain thresholds. You can earn several coins at once depending on how well you do in a minigame, and you earn coins when replaying minigames, instead of just earning one for the first time you get a Superb. There are other ways to gain coins too. Flow Balls are currency spent to unlock extra minigames from previous Rhythm Heaven games. Similar to the change to using coins, Perfect challenges award said Flow Balls instead of unlocking bonuses upon reaching certain thresholds of Perfects. Flow Balls are also earned through completing Challenge Trains consisting of several minigames in a row, with one or more twists thrown in to mix it up. If you've unlocked all extra minigames, the balls will be exchanged for 30 coins. Instead of the credits and cast playing after all the main minigames are completed, there's a fake-out ending after completing the first remix, a real ending after clearing the other six, and a minigame roll-call after the tenth and final remix. In a more minor example, neither of Megamix's new Karate Man games have lyrics, in contrast with all of the others. After the main game, there doesn't seem to be any notifiers for the game characters during the character Role Call. There is no one remix containing all the games. Instead, they are split across the three final remixes. | |

Easy Level Trick: Can go both ways in Megamix: You don't want to overwhelm your brain during games that want you to multitask between the A button and/or the B button/control pad? Simple Tap mode will get rid of all that and allow you to just tap your worries away! You got a game that requires so many simultaneous inputs? You can use the control pad and the A button to get all of them! | |

Exactly What It Says on the Tin | |

Exactly What It Says on the Tin: Several of the games have titles that tell you exactly what they're going to be, in every version. Examples include Karate Man, Hanabi (Fireworks), Shoot-'Em-Up, Dog Ninja, Monkey Watch, and Love Rap. This is more apparent when comparing the English and Japanese versions. Built to Scale is simply called "Assembly", Rhythm Rally is "Ping Pong", Packing Pests is "Sorting", and Micro-Row is "Small Organisms". One game in Megamix is just called "Kitties!" No points for guessing what it's about. | |

Too Long; Didn't Dub | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_878282b7 | comment |
Too Long; Didn't Dub: The Manzai endless game in Fever was never put in localized versions because it's centered around a very Japan-specific form of comedy. To compensate this, other versions of the game contain a remake of Mr. Upbeat, an endless game from Tengoku. Unlike Heaven, Fever doesn't have any dubs besides Japanese, English, and Korean. To make up for it, the European/Australian versions contains the ability to switch between Japanese and English on the fly. None of the new Japanese songs in Megamix have English versions, and if the game is set to English instrumentals play in place of the lyrics. Thankfully, if the audio is set to Japanese the original versions can still be heard even in the localization, though the game won't display any info about them. | |

Series Mascot | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_87ce0385 | comment |
Series Mascot: Each game in the series has a unique mascot. In the first game it's the Drum Samurai, who appears at the beginning of the game, as well as the credits. The blue frog from Frog Hop takes the Drum Samurai's role in Heaven, but the real stars are the Chorus Kids from Glee Club. Marshal, Cam, and Miss Ribbon (who are Suspiciously Similar Substitutes to the Chorus Kids) run the Rhythm Test and the credits minigame, Night Walk, in Fever. Megamix has Tibby, who also serves as the protagonist of the game's story mode. Some fans will say that Karate Joe is the mascot of the entire series (despite not appearing in marketing) as he has appeared in all four games. Others argue the Tap Trial player character (often named Rhythm Girl) is this instead, as she's also appeared in some capacity through the entire series and is the cover girl for Heaven and the arcade port of Tengoku (an expy takes her place on the cover of Fever). | |

Perspective Flip: Listen first to the lyrics in Karate Man in Heaven ("Struck By the Rain") and then to the lyrics in Karate Man in Fever ("Lonely Storm"). The two songs tell the same story of a couple breaking up. "Struck By the Rain" tells it from the female perspective while "Lonely Storm" tells it from the male perspective. For a more traditional example, Second Contact features the alien interpreting for a human to an audience of aliens, the opposite of its predecessor, First Contact. | |

Your Size May Vary: When Tap Trial from Tengoku was remade for Fever and Megamix, the monkeys got smaller — they come up to the girl's waist in Tengoku, but only up to her knees in the later versions. This was probably done for consistency with the various other monkeys in Fever. | |

Non-Standard Game Over: While you normally fail Night Walk in Tengoku by failing to successfully jump on enough nodes, you can also fail and end the game prematurely by falling into a Bottomless Pit. In Night Walk 2, the same can be achieved by jumping into an electric fish. Either way, the game gives you a special "Try Again" message. | |

Sickeningly Sweet: Cutesy, cheesy love songs tend to show up at least once per game for lyrical stages, with the English versions of "Thrilling! Is This Love?" (Fan Club) and "Love Ooh Ooh Paradise" (The Dazzles) in Heaven being the most known. | |

Art Shift: Overall, the general style of the series is Thick-Line Animation, but there are several deviations from that look. From the scribbles of Glee Club and Bossa Nova, to the painterly style of Fever's Samurai Slice, to the 3D polygons of Rhythm Rally and Airboarder, no two rhythm games are guaranteed to look alike. | |

Retraux: Starting in Fever, the practice music for each game is usually a stripped-down chiptune version of the game's actual song. The Endless Game Lady Cupid in Fever is a homage to Kid Icarus, down to the graphics. Megamix features a 16-bit styled rhythm game called Super Samurai Slice. The music and sound effects (aside from the demons exploding) are modern, though. When you feed the goat in Megamix, it takes the form of a pachinko game that uses chiptune music and pixelated graphics. | |

Then, just before the game proper begins, he moves forward to reveal that he's had a baby riding on his back the whole time. | |

Console Cameo | |

Console Cameo: A Wii U GamePad appears in Shoot-'Em-Up in Megamix, as the device used for communications between waves. The museum in Megamix has shortcuts to every game, the icon of which is the system of the game it originated from. Games from Tengoku are shown in a Gameboy Advance, Heaven a first model Nintendo DS, a Wii for Fever, and a New Nintendo 3DS for Megamix (even though the game isn't a New Nintendo 3DS exclusive, and can be played on a regular 3DS just fine). Night Walk from Tengoku takes inspiration from the Japanese-only GBA accessory, the Play-Yan. It even stars the exact same character. One of the pictures that can be seen above the shop in Megamix is the Famicom Disk System's iconic yellow floppy disks. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: All over the place. For example, pay attention to the Freeze Frame game in Heaven, and see how many stages/characters from the first game show upnote For the record: the white and black ninjas from Ninja Bodyguard, the white mouse from Rat Race, and the ghosts from Sneaky Spirits sometimes show up in photographs, and at one point you can see the Rap Men, the Clappy Trio, the Space Dancers, and the monkeys from Tap Trial watching the race. There's more in Heaven than in just that stage, but said stage is practically dripping with them. The reading material for Rhythm Rally 2 shows that Space Gramps, leader of the Space Dancers, is also the chairman of the Rhythm League. Likewise, the reading material for Tap Troupe in Fever implies that he's also the leader of the Tall Tappers. The reading material for Glee Club 2 in Heaven reveals that the conductor used to be in the Clappy Trio from the first game, but moved on to help the Chorus Kids. The Extra Games menu in Fever plays, fittingly enough, a rearrangement of the game selection music from Tengoku. During Remix 7 in Fever, the game briefly shows Karate Joe watching the Karate Man game from Tengoku on a TV. Megamix features a few callbacks of its own in the new minigames. Pajama Party features a song in a very similar style to Love Lab from Heaven, even using the same vocalist. In the Lush Remix, the Spaceball batter from Tengoku is changed to a faceless version of the Pitcher from Fever's Exhibition Match, and she wears masks basked upon DJ Yellow and his student from DJ School in Heaven. Rhythm Rally 2 is also changed to Cosmic Rhythm Rally, with the Paddlers replaced by Cosmic Dancers to match. Halfway through the final remix in Megamix, the music switches from a medley of minigames to a medley of the four games' respective title screen music. Each theme uses "sequel" minigames and an Endless game from its respective game: The Snappy Trio, Cosmic Dance, Tap Trial 2 and Sick Beats for Tengoku, Fan Club 2, Cosmic Rhythm Rally, Jumpin Jazz, and Coin Toss for Heaven, Figure Fighter 2, Working Dough 2, Hole in One 2, and Clap Trap for Fever, and Jungle Gymnast, Karate Man Senior, Super Samurai Slice 2, and the Rhythm Test for Megamix. | |

The final remix also contains a medley of the main themes throughout the series, going from Tengoku to its own theme. | |

Mickey Mousing: Practically everything moves to the beat in this series, to help players follow the rhythm. Rat Race ("Stealth Rat" in Japanese, "Cheese Heist" in the fan translation) gives you no audio cues past the tutorial and just tells you to "follow your gut" in hitting the beats, forcing you to rely on Mickey Mousingnote or paying attention to what the cat is doing, but who does THAT? as your cues. It's for this reason that when it later appears in remixes (and Megamix), it gives you the same cues as the tutorial. | |

Lost in Translation | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_b7920c43 | comment |
Lost in Translation: "Cheer Readers" in the original Japanese version of Fever is noted to have especially glaring and incorrect English ("Let's everybody go!"), but it's very much intentional if the Punny Name of "Cheer Readers" didn't already tip it off to you. In the English localization, however, the cheerleaders speak their English perfectly, so the "Engrish" joke is slightly lost. That's right, something was lost in translation due to the translation being too good. | |

Demoted to Extra: While this applies to several characters throughout the series, nowhere is this more jarring than with the RAPMEN; despite being two of the very small handful of characters to appear in every game in the series, their appearances outside of Tengoku have been strictly limited to brief cameos only. | |

Brutal Bonus Level | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_be3e7584 | comment |
The first two games in the series had a side feature in the form of music lessons unlocked via medals. Tengoku had "Drum Lessons", where you have to copy increasingly complex drum patterns by using every button on the GBA, while Heaven had "Guitar Lessons", which were special games of Rockers set to the music tracks of other games. Both music lessons used a letter-grading system, and the latter was connected to a "Battle of the Bands" Brutal Bonus Level where you played though several songs in a row. Fever quietly dropped music lessons and made Nostalgia Levels the third thing medals unlock. | |

Final-Exam Boss | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_c3e4b9fd | comment |
Final-Exam Boss: The first three games all have a Remix that consists of every game: Remix 6 in the first game, Remix 10 in the second and third. Averted out of necessity in Megamix, since there are just too many unique games to make a true Final Exam Boss without it running excessively long. Instead, the final three Remixes (Left-Hand, Right-Hand, and Final) are condensed medleys upon themselves, with the Final Remix also featuring the title screen music of all four Rhythm Heaven games. During the title screen medley, you get to play parts of the sequel games, parts of the endless games, and a part of the Rhythm Test. Megamix has a challenge that contains successive plays of the Remixes. The game even calls it a "remix of remixes". Karate Man Senior, the final non-Remix game of Megamix, combines elements of all three versions of Karate Man across the franchise (the basic punching from Tengoku, the kicking from Heaven, and the combos from Fever). | |

Blah, Blah, Blah: Ringside in Fever. The girl asks questions of the wrestler and all we hear is "Wubba dubba dubba, 'zat true?" The wrestler is most likely not paying attention to the questions and is yes-ing her to death. Lampshaded in the game's reading material, where the reporter is asking him actual questions, and he still responds to everything with "Eh." It opens up the possibility that we're hearing what the wrestler hears. | |

Some of the harder games love darkening everything or putting things in your way, forcing you to rely only on your rhythm and your ability to detect audio cues. One of the most notorious examples comes in Samurai Slice in Fever, which blocks the entire freaking screen with translucent slides, creating a Fake Difficulty for what would otherwise be extremely basic games. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Rhythm Heaven makes many references to other games, such as WarioWare and even Nintendo's GBA-slot based MP3 player, the rarely heard of Play-Yannote the guy from the Night Walk stage is the character from the menu navigation for the Play-Yan's interface. Fever has a Game & Watch character cameo in Working Dough (the reading material refers to him as Mr. Game & Watch), and one of the baseball players in Exhibition Match looks remarkably like something Shigeru Miyamoto had drawn in the '80s. The 2P Endless Game Kung Fu Ball in Fever stars Young Cricket as Player 1. The Fever endless game Lady Cupid, in all of its 8-bit glory, is likely to be a shout-out to Kid Icarus. Her general appearance, including her green hair, could also be a shout-out to Palutena from the same game. MC Adore from Fever's Love Rap bears similarity to both Cynthia and Curly Brace. The European version of Fever adds one in; the boy and girl from Double Date are namechecked as Romeo and Julia in the credits. A doll of Ashley appears in Megamix's Rhythm Museum. The results screen for First Contact in Megamix is titled "Ground Control to Translator Tom". In Megamix, one of the things Dieter might say at the Café begins with, "I met a strange lady" who made him nervous, quoting the line word for word from Men at Work's "Down Under." In the Bird Remix of Megamix, the Wrestler dons a yellow bird costume, making him a humanoid version of Rawk Hawk. | |

No Name Given: A bunch of characters. Notably, the boy and the girl from Double Date in Fever. Their labels in the cast are "A boy" for the boy, and "His crush" for the girl. It gets somewhat ridiculous considering the weasels have a collective name that's all capitalized (Weasel Couple), alongside other certain named cast members, being a fork (named Fork) and a set of nuts and a bolt (named Widget). They're named Romeo and Julia for the European version, however. The cast of Donk-Donk also goes unnamed in the North American version, instead simply labeling them as "Uh...these guys?"note In the European version, they're known as The Donkers. Then again, it's quite difficult to put a name on such a cast... | |

Foreign Queasine: Skirted with in the first game, which features a stage requiring you to pluck the hairs off of oddly-faced beets. Yes, the same ones that show up later in Crop Stomp. There's even a lampshade hung on how strange and unappetizing the beets look in one of the Guitar Lessons in Heaven. In fact, the developers for Tengoku actually wanted to put human faces on the beets, but later decided to use cartoon-ish ones, as they found the human faces on the beets to be "too creepy". invoked | |

This is what helps him learn about the world and happily tells him to his seemingly-possessed mother in Heaven World so that she can talk to him. Unfortunately, the heartwarming part of this speech is entirely lost on her as she had been holding up her breath to get rid of a bad case of hiccups. Tibby is speechless and miffed. | |

Mundane Made Awesome | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_d148b019 | comment |
Mundane Made Awesome: The guiding principle of the game - especially the first game. Whoever thought that writing calligraphy could be so Hot-Blooded and chopping vegetables could be so cool? The samurai's purpose in life in the Fever version of Samurai Slice is battling demons... to retrieve stolen children's toys. The last demon in the portal is always the one carrying it. The mini-game See-Saw involves See and Saw doing acrobatics on a seesaw in order to test it, all while set to blaring metal music. Eventually, the one you control gets launched into the air several times in a row and, if you time the button presses right, he'll fuzz up and land with the explosion on the seesaw. At the end, they'll Air Guitar before exploding from pure awesomeness. Ringside involves a Masked Luchador being interviewed by a reporter in front of the press set to catchy music. The reporter's questions are rendered as "Wubba dubba dubba, 'zat true?" and if done right, he nods to each question. The reporter going "Woah, you go, big guy!" and the crowd going "Pose for the fans!" are both cues to do two different poses, but in the case of the pose for the latter cue, it's either accompanied by dramatic background swirl or a cut to a newspaper article containing a photo of the Masked Luchador performing said pose. Megamix's Final Remix has a unique scenario in which a man is proposing to a woman...only instead of presenting her the wedding ring, he flips the ring high into the air, and she skillfully catches it exactly 6 beats later. Yes, this is Coin Toss. | |

Hit it even more and eventually the host's panel and then the Quiz sign will explode. In the event that you screw up Rat Race hard enough to get either your rat or the other two rats stuck out in the open when Ms. Whiskers is watching, they'll cower in fear and sweat nervously while she stares them down. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Talking to the Barista lets you skip any level you're having trouble with, provided you've tried it at least three times. You can do this for as many games as you want, excluding the Remix before the credits and the final one. Fever's Barista gives players the option to watch a perfect run of the level, to see the proper rhythms. Some longer minigames compensate for their length by being much more lenient with the timing. Being slightly offbeat will warn the player slightly, but it'll still count as a successful input and won't break a perfect run. (For example, this can be seen in action with Heaven's Frog Hop here.) If you're doing badly on the practice sessions in Fever, the game allows you to see an auto play of the tutorial. Megamix instead shows a beat-by-beat breakdown of the inputs on the touch screen to tell you exactly when you need to press the button. From Fever onwards, remixes will cue you when the next game is a "keep the beat" type minigame like Monkey Watch, Air Rally, or Donk Donk. Similarly, going from one of these games to a regular one will discount the first few incorrect button presses in case you got used to the beat of the previous game. Megamix plays with this; some of the remixes string parts where you're keeping the beat together, so that you don't stop keeping the beat as the games switch. This includes having one game having you press A every beat just before it switches, and then leading to a "keep the beat" game. In Megamix, failing a Perfect Challenge causes the game to end immediately, saving the player the trouble of having to restart it manually. Also, games with lower-quality vocal cues (such as Marching Orders and Frog Hop) feature subtitles so that the player isn't thrown off by misunderstanding the cue. In Frog Hop in Heaven, since the song ends on an interrupted cadence, the game disables the touch screen before the game itself ends so the player doesn't keep tapping by accident. The gatekeepers in Megamix will let you by after failing one of their challenges four times, explicitly citing this trope (and that the game is intended to be fun) as to why. When playing a Life Challenge on the Challenge Train, a Miss will give you a brief period of Mercy Invincibility so that you have a second to regain your bearings without your lives draining away. In previous games, you were able to unlock the track to a game or some other extra flavor text-based material. The problem is, to do that, you have to get a Perfect to unlock that game's extra, which is easier said that done on some levels. In addition, every level either has one or the other, never both. However, Megamix allows you to buy both extras for each stage in the Shop at the Café, after getting past the game. Glee Club in Heaven lacks a lot of cues to help the player, with the only obvious one being the "Together now!" cue for shouting together and a visual cue when you completely miss. When it was brought over to Megamix, several new cues were added: a heart appears next to your Chorus Kid if you were on the beat, the conductor waves his baton with a vocal cue when everyone needs to close their mouths at once, and the Chorus Kids crouch down before the "Together now!" cue. This makes it easier to keep track of the patterns and how well you're doing. | |

Dub Name Change: In European languages, Heaven is named "Rhythm Paradise"note except in Australian English, which is the same name as in North America, and Fever is "Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise". Likewise, in Korean, they're Rhythm World and Rhythm World Wii. Additionally, certain names are changed, either for puns or for flavor. For example, Fever's Air Rally characters are Baxter and Forthington, whereas the European version retains the original Japanese names of Quick and Slow. | |

Art Evolution: The games' overall style started out very simplistic, with almost all humanoid characters having Black Bead Eyes, but gradually become more detailed over time. Additionally the in-game sprites looked very sketchy. There's a noticeable change in Fever, the first console game in the series, where most human characters had sceleras and the in-game sprites became much smoother, making them look more like official art. Megamix also highlights this, with older minigames redone in the smoother style done in Fever. | |

Ringside involves a Masked Luchador being interviewed by a reporter in front of the press set to catchy music. The reporter's questions are rendered as "Wubba dubba dubba, 'zat true?" and if done right, he nods to each question. The reporter going "Woah, you go, big guy!" and the crowd going "Pose for the fans!" are both cues to do two different poses, but in the case of the pose for the latter cue, it's either accompanied by dramatic background swirl or a cut to a newspaper article containing a photo of the Masked Luchador performing said pose. | |

Asbestos-Free Cereal: Fever's Packing Pests has you working for a company that produces "Spider-Free Candy". Your job is to keep it spider-free. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Marshal, Cam, and Miss Ribbon in Fever are similar to the Chorus Kids from Heaven. Marshal in particular looks almost exactly like one. | |

Hard-Work Montage | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_f5f79e56 | comment |
Hard-Work Montage: During Blue Birds, you see the birds' training routine in the background while the gameplay continues. This is lampshaded by the reading material, which outright says that reading it will help the montage make more sense. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: Nothing like swatting candy and catching spiders in Packing Pests. Try getting a high score at Mr. Upbeat. Eventually as the music gets faster, Mr. Upbeat's comments of praise eventually become frantic begging for you to stop because his feet hurt. | |

| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_f9d25ddf | comment |
Last Note Hilarity: Tengoku's Karate Man ("Karate Man Returns" in Megamix) ends with the music becoming faster and more intense, only to end with the silly xylophone ditty from the tutorial. | |

Running Gag | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: In Megamix, for any version of First Contact, whoever's watching the video feed (Ground Control, Alien Ground Control, or a family watching TV) will either whoop and holler or stare blankly at the screen depending on the action taking place. Particularly for staring blankly, it's the exact same expression drawn on their faces every time. The joke even carries over to Ground Control's cameo in WarioWare: Get It Together! | |

Non-Indicative Difficulty | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_fc2f4def | comment |
Non-Indicative Difficulty: The second version of a minigame is supposed to be harder, usually with a faster tempo, longer stage, or added off-beat prompts. But some minigames mix things up by going with a different timing or slowing the tempo to throw off the player, so they ironically become easier in the process. Lockstep 2 is one such example with its slower marching pace. | |

Ridiculously Cute Critter: Many examples. From Fever alone we have the seals in Flipper-Flop, the Weasel Couple in Double Date, and any time monkeys show up. | |

Theme Naming | |

Theme Naming: Shows up here and there; for example, Ao-kun, Aka-chan, and Kii-yan of the Toss Boys in Tengoku are all named after their respective colors (blue, red, and yellow), and the characters from Air Rally in Fever are named Baxter and Forthington. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Rhythm Heaven (Video Game) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: The reading material for Monkey Watch shows that it was designed to help keep your spirits up by giving you a cheery way to look at the time. The reading material for Mr. Upbeat suggests he bought a Monkey Watch to act as a therapist for his depression. In Heaven's Big Rock Finish, you play a small initial tune to get used to the game's moves. Later on, the tune is extended to an entire song in Remix 7. Guess what game the Remix will make you play right as it's about to finish. The Rap Men in Tengoku complain about someone stealing their snacks at 3 PM. The game's sequel Rap Women reveals that the 2nd pair stole them earlier that day at 10 AM. In Tengoku's Karate Man, the tutorial has a little ditty to help the player get used to punching pots. After you sucessfully clear the level, the music starts speeding up... and the ditty plays again, with a boulder thrown exactly to the timing of the tutorial. | |
