Finally got this at the current 60% off digital sale ($19.99 USD) plus a little DLC of my choice and it’s definitely worth it so far.

Bad side: Joycon drumming controls in this game are sooo close to working, and actually pretty fun too, but just too unreliable to get through even one song and still feel like the game is “fair”due to frequent delayed and dropped hits, and finicky distinction between vertical and diagonal motion. Button controls are less exciting, but I immediately got twice as “good” at the game. Gonna have to look out for the actual drum controller, but in the meantime I might give touchscreen controls a shot.

I find it really funny that there’s a Japanese version of ”How Far I’ll Go” from Moana in the “anime” category.
