Taiko no Tatsujin Portable

Notes Data

Unused Chart Data#

From Previous Games#

• Ai wo torimodose!! (mhoku)

Both Extreme/Oni charts contain unseen branch areas that match data found in its previous appearances in Taiko no Tatsujin 4 and Taiko no Tatsujin: Go! Go! Godaime.

• Touch (mtouch)

The Easy/Kantan, Normal/Futsuu and Hard/Muzukashii charts contain unused branch areas that match data found as early as Taiko no Tatsujin 4. Curiously, the unused areas in the former two charts became the proper chart data in Taiko no Tatsujin 5 and 6.

• Omatsuri ninja (mninja)

Both Extreme/Oni charts contain unseen branch areas that match data found in its previous appearance in Taiko no Tatsujin: Go! Go! Godaime, though the drumroll at measure 13 has a length of 1.346s in the unseen Master Branch. The used drumroll's length was also modified to 2.269s.

Unseen Branches#

Dragon Spirit medley (mdrsp)#

This song's 2P Normal/Futsuu chart has both Advanced and Master branches populated, despite it lacking transition parameters. Almost all measures have the same note arrangement, with a Small Don (ドン) at beat 0 and three Small Ka (カッ) at beats 1, 2, and 3; the only measure that does not have this arrangement is the Master branch of the 2P side of the last measure, 114.

Mappy ondo (mmappy)#

This song's Hard/Muzukashii charts have populated Advanced and Master branches before the first transition. Aside from measures 9 and 10, they're the same to what is seen, with the content of these latter two measures repeating after the transition happens.

Normal (Seen)
Advanced (Unseen)
Master (Unseen)

Unseen 2P Sides#

Barring charts whose 2P counterparts are identical, a few 1P charts have 2P data that differs from what is seen. Most of the entries here consist of discrepancies between the note lyrics of both regions.

Mojipittan medley (mmoji)#

All 1P charts have some degree of lyric discrepancies in the 2P sides of their charts, as follows:

Easy / Kantan

• At measure 39, the lyrics of the two Small Don notes is swapped; the first note has the lyric "ドン", while the second one has "ド".

Normal / Futsuu

• All Small Don notes have the lyric "ドン", and all Small Ka notes have "カッ".

Hard / Muzukashii

• At measure 87, the very last Small Don note has the notation "コ" rather than "ド".

Extreme / Oni

• At measures 27, 51, 55, 87, and 89, every odd Small Don has the notation "ド", and every even one "コ". The 1P side has the Small Dons on every 8th beat have the notation "ド", and those on every 16th have "コ", making the lyrics sound more natural.

• Similarly, at measure 71, the last six Small Dons have their "ド" and "コ" lyrics swapped.

1P (Used)
2P (Unused)

• At measures 84 to 86, the second to fourth Small Dons also have changed lyrics.

Extreme / Oni

• At measures 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 36, the last of four Small Dons in a row has the notation "コ" rather than "ドン".
• Again at measure 2, the Small Don following three Small Kas in a row has the notation "ド" rather than "ドン".

• At measure 17, the last of four Small Dons in a row, as well as the very first one in the measure, has the notation "ド" rather than "ドン".

Unused Graphics#

Yam Note Leftover#

Each of the hissu_data packages within the folder enso contain graphics related to the gameplay screen, including assets for the player characters and interface. Within the file which contains the sprites for the note lyrics, is a graphic reading "イモ連打", which is an unused graphic associated with the Yam notes seen in Taiko no Tatsujin: Go! Go! Godaime and Taiko no Tatsujin 7.

Within the game's graphical data are scrapped song leftovers. While most of them are merely placeholders, one song can be properly identified.
