You know what's my favorite part about this franchise? How there's no plot or padding and I can get straight into the minigames. Oh wait...

Annoying plot aside, the new games are delightful and the new remixes are really great. It's nice to be able to have various old games remastered, though it sucks that they removed the flick option for DS minigames for some reason. It also sucks that for a console with Several Buttons, a game that only requires 2 button inputs at most can't remap it's input intake to other buttons, like come on. The focus on frame-perfect timing is also very weird, and not particularly enjoyable. The game selection is also pretty strange, like why is Quiz here but not Bon Odori?

Still fun to play, but has some very strange choices that stifles it from being a more enjoyable entry.
