You know, I was pretty salty when the game was first announced, because I bought every DLC, despite all the warning signs that Degica (maybe also Taito) wasn't really working on this game in places they should have been. I'm still laughing my ass off when Degica literally told us "Oop, We tried!" last December.

Now, I'm cautiously optimistic about this; this looks like it's being made by a team that actually cares. The only real downside is that I don't think this is going to get a western release, let alone an English translation, but whatever. At least this game isn't going to be in the cloud and you have to pay some monthly fee, and pay with Moon Coins(TM) to buy extra songs and access certain features. Speaking of which, I have a a feeling we're gonna get multiplayer later down the line. >>

Comes out on the 7th!

So, apparently, WaiWai Party has ENGLISH MENUS! 8I

Btw, the game is a bit pricey; it's 6,500 Yen for the base game. Here's hoping the DLC's a bit cheaper. >>

The game is ENTIRELY TRANSLATED IN ENGLISH, complete with translated song titles! Heck, even Linka speaks English, complete with brand new lines specifically for this game! So, you have calibration settings, a retry button in the pause menu, swappable navigators a wider variety of songs, (local) multiplayer, an actual unlock system, a real TATE mode that doesn't require you to change your monitor's settings, SFX (there's even songs that have their own unique default SFX sounds!), a much more convenient song sorting system, and others I'm forgetting.

What I'm saying here is, WHY WASN'T THIS THE STEAM VERSION?!. Only minor gripe I have is that your controller vibrates whenever you press a button on the controller and/or hit a note (in other words, all the time), but I'm sure there's a way to turn that off.

But seriously, this game is good, go out and support it! It's clear that whoever at Taito made this game actually cares about the game meeting expectations!

Ask Degica or Taito. I don't even care anymore, the Steam version is f***ing dead.

I'm new to switch. How can I get this game since is a Japanese game? Any help is welcomed! Thanks! I know how to do it for the PS4 but I don't know if it works the same way for the switch.

It's actually super easy. Only hard part is navigating the Japanese eShop (Fun fact: If you have a NSO membership on your regular US/EU account, you can download the Famicom/Super Famicom apps for free and use them, no problem.) Getting Japanese eShop prepaid cards is also super easy, too (Just buy them on Playasia and get the codes, and enter them on the bottom option in the eShop)

...

Quick question: Where the hell do you spend your GC? I can't for the life of me figure out where you'd spend it. X_X

(Unless they're adding in a shop feature in a future update?)

GC is used in the Mission unlock system; you can spend GC to unlock some things there. Odd thing is, I think there's a bug (or maybe I'm just hallucinating) where as when I used GC to instantly clear a mission objective (Mission #12 - Clear 10 songs on EASY difficulty), the node showed that it was "Clear", yet on the song select menu, said mission was still available for clearing, so what I did was go through the mission by clearing the 10 songs on EASY anyway, and then finally the mission objective disappeared in the song select menu, while nothing new happened to the node in Mission. If this is a bug, I'm sure TAITO will patch it up in the coming updates.

Other than this, the game runs flawlessly. You can even dance while you're playing, lol.

As for the default songlist, I feel a bit mixed about it; I was never a big fan of Vocaloid music, and there's a lot of Vocaloid tracks; I would have much preferred more of the Groove Coaster original music tracks. I've only unlocked two songs thus far, one being a Vocaloid track and another being a Touhou track....hopefully, future DLC/unlocks will contain more GC original tracks.

I wonder why not much people here are talking about the Virtual YouTuber-related stuff in the game...

Anyway, here's Mirai Akari testing out GCWWP.

Because most of us don't know who these people are. ^^; That being said, it's pretty cool some of the songs have swappable vocals. Also, I really hope most of the Navigators aren't going to default to Senna in English. X_X

Honestly, I've never heard of Vtuber until Groove Coaster: Wai Wai Party!!!! was announced; hell, I bought the game and STILL don't know who he/she/they are. Time to Google 'em up. xD

"No."
Alright so I got the game and played it. The Song list is.. Okay at most. A LOT of Vocaloid songs and touhou. Not enough Zuntata songs. No Play Merrily, No Got more raves, etc But i didn't unlock everything yet. So it could be in there. (I avoided gameplay videos and stuff so pls dont spoil it if these songs are in there)

Here is a small review of the game.



The Timing comparing from the PC Port and the Android version of the game.. The switch BEATS IT OUT OF THE PARK HEAVILY.
I dont know what these Vtuber stuff is but you can switch the vocals of some songs. I only did it on Marisa Stole the Precious thing and the song sounds weird..
BUUUT.
Controls are spot on. Pro controller support. Navigator switching, Title switch, Skin switch, ITS AMAZING.

PC port literally doesnt exist now cause of this. The mission are VERY tedious. Play a certain amount of songs on EASY and easy is just... yeah... its tedious but worth it!

of course when they do everything right it's fucking license-centric

this is why groove coaster's been crumbling apart

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but alongside the release they also confirmed on their Twitter that the game’s going to be localized for other regions at some point. Though, given that the game is already fully translated, there isn’t too much of a reason right now not to just get the JP version if you’re already interested.

https://twitter.com/groove_coaster/status/1192017540387500033?s=21

I haven’t been able to try the game yet myself, but I’m pretty impressed on what I’ve seen so far and I’m glad to hear the timing window’s much better in this one. My only real complaint with what I’ve seen so far is that for having a full retail price, I do wish they had put a bit more songs in the base game, (though I’m honestly really not that disappointed with the base song list either tbh). At this point I’m most interested in seeing how they decide to support this game going forward. I do hope the game receives more free song updates than the Steam version and keep DLC packs mainly tied to licenses. I’m more than certain things will get way too pricey for most people if every song update is an extra $15. Regardless, I’m super excited to try it.

Also, the word ‘cocaine’ on Brain Power was censored out in this version and the way they did had me laughing for a good 10 minutes.

Really disappointed how the songlist is full of vocaloid and touhou. Especially when GC has amazing original songs but I guess I shouldn't be surprised about it at this point.

How many songs is the game turning out to have (mostly asking for the misc and original folder)?

Game Folder is Lacking atm.

Misc is turning okay with B.K.K.B.K.K and Brain Power plus some other hardcore stuff.

Havent unlocked all the songs but UnderTale packs add to the game music folder. Its very DLC heavy so just wait for the DLC.

The game is out on the NA and EU e-shop with all the dlc released thus far.

Went ahead and bought it since it looks like they're releasing dlc fairly fast.
