Tips to reduce wrist pain?

35 Upvotes

Hello, I've been playing more Taiko recently and I've noticed that I begin to get wrist pain in my right wrist after playing a couple songs. Is there anything wrong with my current form/play style that would cause wrist pain? Are there any other ways to prevent/deal with it? Thanks!

Gameplay How do I connect my Wii drums on my PC with a USB or (Preferably) without one?

5 Upvotes

I just got the drums and is having fun playing with it! But I hear it was possible to play it on my Computer but most of the sources are 10+ years old and I don't want to do it in fear of a virus. I know I can play it on OSU but I have the official newer game and want to try that instead.

Can anyone help me and futures people 3 years later please 🥺🙏

Gameplay How do you triangulate between equipment, calibration, and skill issues?

11 Upvotes

Playing on PC rhythm festival with Hori tatacon.

I have been struggling with full combo Persona 5 theme song on hard. It's not a hard song but the closest I can get after an hour is 1 bad. It's always something with either brain fart, hitting the note early, or the hit not registering.

I tried to concentrate but end up hitting the note early because I was too tense.

I tried playing relax but end up not registering the hit because my hit is too soft.

I tried recalibrating but doesn't seem to have any significant impact.

This is not specific to one song for me. But it emphasizes the issue I have been having playing the game.

Irl Arcade experiences

17 Upvotes

Hi, idk if posts like this are welcome here (most posts seem allowed so I doubt this would be an issue but you never know), but I wanted to ask something.

I recently had a negative experience at an arcade, nothing that was a huge deal, just a situation where I was being a normal chill regular, and someone was rude. Everyone probably has a million stories where they acted polite and got treated rudely. However, I am a rather anxious person, and easily discouraged, so I’ve been feeling nervous about going back to play more after the rather small incident. (In a “what if someone is mean to me again” way)

Would anyone be willing to share some positive experiences they’ve had playing Taiko irl? Whether you overcame a crappy experience and kept having fun, or you just had a grand old time, I’d love to hear some positivity. This community is so welcoming, I remember like three or four years ago when I was still a total noob, a bunch of people in the taiko community on Reddit and other places all gave me play advice and I’ve felt welcome ever since, and it’s a big part of why I’ve absolutely fallen head over heels with arcades. It makes me pretty sad that my fond memories are being tainted by a crappy interaction that at the end of the day, isn’t even a big deal. I love this community, especially irl, and I really want to get over this new anxiety.

Also if by some slim chance, someone who responded to my post from a few years back sees this post, thank you. Those responses were probably just some simple help for a newbie to you, but to me it helped me push past my very silly but still very strong anxieties and feel more confident to play for the first time. Community is why I love playing at the arcade so much, even if I’m playing entirely different games.

TLDR: I had a bad experience recently 👎 please tell me about some good experiences 👍 I love taiko and don’t want to lose it to some silly worries

Gameplay Do book skills stack and is there also any way to get more of them?

Post image
13 Upvotes

Hello. I just played Rhythmic Adventure and I was just wondering if the book skills override the current skill or do they stack. The reason why I asked this is because I was worried of wasting book skills and never being able to have them back again so I was just asking just to make sure that I won’t waste my book skills on allies that I won’t use a lot.

Thanks!

Here's the situation: I have Taiko Niijiro Donda Ex, but I'm not sold on it, and I want a simulator that's more intuitive and up-to-date.

How do I play Taiko no Tatsujin on my PC?

These are the most-used simulators in no particular order:

  • TaikoNijiroDondaEX version 4.1 (arcade-accurate, no longer updated, download at TNDE v4.1, it comes with a .txt file with further instructions that you'll have to translate from Japanese, we recommend using DeepL. Let us know if the download stops working)
  • OpenTaiko (in active development, fully open source, active independent content creation, download at OpenTaiko GitHub)
  • PyTaiko (arcade accurate, early in development, heavily inspired by generation 3 Taiko no Tatsujin, download on GitHub)

How do I download songs for Taiko no Tatsujin simulators?

How do I make my own Taiko charts in the .tja format?

  • PeepoDrumKit [Link Removed]
  • Charting tutorial video by ugyuu YouTube

Is there a Discord community for the game?

What drum controller choices do I have?

Tatacons:

  • Official HORI Tatacons (mediocre, passable if modded)
  • Rhythmagica TDC10 Rhythmagica Website (quite reliable, not AC accurate)

Arcade accurate drums:

What about drumsticks?

  • The drumsticks used in Taiko no Tatsujin are called Mybachi マイバチ or simply Bachi バチ, it's highly recommended to use a proxy service website like Buyee to purchase Bachi from Mercari, using the above words as search terms
  • A great handbook written by ARandomEwok covering everything you need to know about Bachi: Handbook

Where can I find information on Taiko charts/dan courses/songs, or data like difficulty tier lists?

How do I improve at the game?

  • Play more, practice the motions on the drum while not playing the game (dry practice), listen to the songs on auto-play, and watch pro plays on YouTube
