Taiko Drum Master Switch Version Includes Kirby & Splatoon Avatars

I'm so glad Nintendo Switch isn't region locked, because I am definitely grabbing this Taiko Drum game. Bonus good news is that 33 additional songs were announced, bringing the total to 44 total songs, which are a mix of anime, video game, and JPOP songs. There's also going to be a physical controller you can use, instead of having to rely on the joycons. Part of what makes Taiko so satisfying is hitting the drum.

Here is a list of some of the confirmed songs as of now:
