Kawashima’s Brain Training for Nintendo Switch ( Nintendo Wiki) Osawa received a special thanks credit on Dr. As far as we can tell, Osawa’s most recent development credit on a Nintendo game is Wii Play: Motion. Osawa was called the series’ “chief mastermind” in an Iwata Asks interview and was involved in a number of aspects to bring the series to life ( Iwata Asks). Furthermore, we can see other key members of the original staff have gone on to work on separate projects.įirst is Rhythm Tengoku and Rhythm Heaven chief director Kazuyoshi Osawa who doesn’t seem to have been credited on any games for some time now. But when such a prominent member of the team is making appeals for the series online, it supports the theory that nothing is currently going on with it. The series’ foundation is there and Tsunku seems to be onboard with the idea of a new game, so it looks like there wouldn’t be a problem. Rhythm Heaven Megamix sold 700,000 copies in Japan alone which wasn’t bad at all for the time. It’s unknown why the Rhythm Heaven series has seemingly been put on hold. In addition to planning and producing, Tsunku is also a composer for the series, and we can see his love and passion for it is still going strong. In April of 2020, he asked fans what features they would like to see in a new game and commented in July of the same year that he wants to put out another game continuing the trend of making appeals for the series.

Tsunku also showed his interest in making a new Rhythm Heaven title when retweeting an article about the game in 2019. But since the release of Rhythm Heaven Megamix in 2015, there’s been no news on the series despite its creator Tsunku continuing to express his desire to make a sequel on social media. Following that was Rhythm Tengoku Gold for the DS, known simply as Rhythm Heaven outside of Japan, Rhythm Heaven Fever, and Rhythm Heaven Megamix. Developed in cooperation with the team behind WarioWare, the first title Rhythm Tengoku released in Japan for the Game Boy Advance in 2006. Rhythm Heaven is a rhythm game series made by Nintendo that began with a project plan brought to the company by Tsunku ( Iwata Asks).
