Loving this, but knew 100% that I would.
With the coin-toss mini-game, how hard is hard? I beat the second level because perfect timing seemed like it'd be near-impossible, and they can't expect you to hit it 15 times bang-on 3.00 seconds surely? I reckon I could get most of them between 2.95 and 3.05 but is there that much of a window or does perfect mean perfect?

I believe the window is .05 seconds like you said.

I will be honest, I haven't beaten it and I beat all the other hard games. The leap between normal and hard is stupid in that particular game.
Edit: I believe the window is .05.
The window on the Chicken game is also pretty small, but I find it easier.
It starts out much easier than those games.
Megamix is geared toward newcomers in many ways. Easy and short games in the early portion, the new grading system is more transparent, unlockables now don't all require getting Perfects... etc.
Yesss. This game basically made me put away the DS game because I just could not do flicks properly.

Yeah I went back to the DS game after playing The Best + and yeah no, could not deal with touch controls. I guess I adapted back then. Wii version still holds up funny enough.
Oh yeah, the grading curve is much more fair. If you have any rhythm, you should OK everything. I gotten Gold on stuff I missed some beats which rarely happened in the older games.

are the challenge courses the only way to get flow balls?
Perfect challenges give you those as well

Gotcha. Well, I'm not a particular fan of the coin flip mini game, but I have a surplus, so I suppose I might as well.
Digging up my old cartridge I apparently got a perfect on the first one but I could not for the life of me do it again.
You get them from Perfect Campaigns and supposedly from multiplayer as well.

Of the DS games, I was never able to get a perfect on Rhythm Rally 2 or The Dazzles (the first one; I know right?). I gather Rhythm Rally is in this. What about The Dazzles?

Both are, but I believe the Dazzles is a bonus unlockable game, not part of the main story.
I think you'll find Rhythm Rally much easier with buttons rather than flicks this time round.

Cheers, maybe I'll give it a go then! Was only concerned by the game's wording.

Sick Beats is great, it's really satisfying

I would say so. It has the most normal controls of an English-released Rhythm Heaven game and indisputably has quality-of-life improvements over its predecessors. While some good games have been overlooked from past games, much of the best games from past games are in this game.

I think a couple other posters covered it, but it is a pretty good place. They start with relatively easier games and the grading system has been revamped to become more transparent than before. Worth taking a look at the demo I suppose.
This is my first RH and I'm loving it. So I say yes.

It was in the original GBA game. I find it much easier with touch controls.

Is that the one where you are being shot at and you need to deflect arrows?

No, it's from the GBA one. Each world follows this pattern:
GBA game, DS game, Wii game, New game, Remix.

Seven in main game,
three in post game although there being a post game should not be surprising.
Kung Fu guy gets 5 extra mini-games (not joking!)
Sweet, about to snag my girlfriend's 3DS and try out the demo now!

Oh yes, this is the best game for starting with the series. It is mostly great games (Quiz being included still pisses me off).
I decided to take a break from the main game and try out the challenge mode. The extra stuff they add to the games during some of them are really fun. The Flockstep that had it's tempo increased and a monster eating the screen was really fun.
I decided to spend my orbs on Night Walk. I think I'll save up for Catch of the Day next.

Ugh, Machine Remix also took out vocals in English dub.
Post game hype!
The flow and presentation of story mode is excellent, makes it hard to put down. The new minigames fit right in, seems to be a fair amount of extra goodies and side activities packed in as well. I have been mashing through most of the story text, though don't mind that it's there for folks that want it.
Great representation of the series from what I've played so far, for a game that leans heavily on previous entries it still manages to feel surprisingly fresh.

Finally got a chance to dive in, love the game so far, the new grading system is great in that it lets you know why you're off and where to get closer to the rhythm, at the same time getting 100% on songs is gonna be a fudging nightmare since the game expect you to be freaking exact for those rainbow stars.

Getting perfects is always so hard for me, I don't think my sense of rhythm will ever be good enough for a game like this.
Anyways, buying it tomorrow, can't wait!

Fuck you double lemons, fuck you and you're stupid fucking timing for the star why on Earth is that last set on 3 instead of 1 *table flip*
At least a cool thing to note about fruit basketball is that the dream in the middle can be a wide variety of things including tic tac toe, a hamburger, a skateboard, and a panda from what I can remember.

The new dub of Marching Orders is good, but what did they do to Space Dance? The song was ready in English!

Your score in the 90s comes down to how many perfect on the beat beats you get donated by the little rainbow star explosion on the bottom screen. The highest I've gotten so far is 97 on fruit baskets where I think I only missed 2 being 100% perfect and they were slightly before and slightly after the middle of the line.
Wait until you reach the next gate. It's 10x harder than the coin flip IMO.
