And the bridge between band geeks and videogame geeks is built.



...okay, it was already there. "Reinforced" then.

As a saxophone-playing gamer, I never said there was.

Definitely DO WANT as well. I'm hoping for some kind of formations game mechanic.

This is the type of stuff I've been hoping for on Ninty's little box.

hey small world. i played Tenor Sax in my high school marching band. well middle school to freshmen year high school at least, then i played the #5 Bass Drum my sophomore year, and Quads my junior and senior year. i can also proudly say that my high school marching band had a winning streak going from 1992 til last year when they finally got a 2nd place. too bad it ended but we won all the parades i was in! band geeks FTW!

I read the headline and I was like "Yay!", then I read the article and I was like "Meh"

If you can create your own drills, this would be cool.

Band geek indeed! Marched Percussion for 6 years (4 in highschool, 2 in college). It was the best freaking time I've had.

Any collaboration between Masaya Matsuura and Rodney Greenblat is a must purchase for me. Can't wait!

All I can say is... NatalieDee.com! I think this is the third or fourth Natalie Dee cartoon that has been shown on Joystiq. Hooray! Anyone else read Natalie Dee, Toothpaste for Dinner, or Married to the Sea?

I have read Toothpaste for Dinner, Married To The Sea, and Natalie Dee for years now. I was actually a T-shirt winning runner up in one of the TfD photo contests. They are freaking hilarious.

You get voted down for bringing back the dumbest joke I've heard to many damn times.

I played Parappa just last week, and the gameplay hasn't aged particularly well.

The music is still great though.

Is there a level where you have to dodge batteries thrown by your own drunken football fans? There could also be a level called "Drumline Hangover Challenge." How about road apple dodging in parade mode... especially with all the animal characters.

Will the trumpet players all be roosters (if you know what I mean)?

This looks like a total flop so far.

I love how people are saying "This looks like a foo-foo kids game and the game play concept is going to flop!"

Guess what? That is what everyone else thought when they pitched Parappa the Rapper to people and Sony in circa mid 1990. In fact initially Sony made a low number of copies because they thought it was going to sell poorly, only to be swamped with demand.

So in short, fuck off. ;D
