This game revived my dead hopes that there would one day be a good main series Pokémon game again. The concept is fresh, the visuals are appealing, and both catching and battling Pokémon really felt exciting for the first time in decades with different mechanics. The soundtrack is a love letter to Diamond/Pearl's, with beautiful remixes and many smaller musical references mixed in. It's not perfect, but all the above things more than make up for its shortcomings and make it a fun experience. If Legends: Z-A is at least as good as this, I'll be truly happy.

I enjoyed this far more than I was expecting to, not knowing how to dance. It's less restrictive than DDR/PIU and gives you more room to hit notes how you want (which isn't better or worse in terms of being enjoyable, just different). I found patterns to be relatively intuitive to pick up and quite fun to hit.

Honestly, I had hoped to like this game more than I actually ended up liking it. The story was nice but I think I'd have enjoyed it more with more exploration of the characters instead of shallow gameplay. The soundtrack, though - absolutely wondrous, and the main theme in particular is exemplary and a perfect example of how something so simple can sound so beautiful.
