Bandai Namco’s upcoming Wii game “Happy Dance Collection” – or more likely to be remembered as “that dancing game with Nana-chan and iM@S songs in it” amongst us seiyuu otaku – is a game that I’ve wrote about before. Suddenly out of the blue the game was announced just a few weeks ago to be coming out on the 23rd this month, and thanks to last week’s Tokyo Game Show Bandai Namco had decided that this game should get some promotion. What we have here is a short video of seiyuu Imai Asami (long hair) – who plays Kisaragi Chihaya in the Idolmaster games, and Hasegawa Akiko (short hair) – who plays Hoshii Miki, trying out the famous Idolmaster song “Go My Way” in the game. (The original video also had them talking about and playing the PSP Idolmaster game before this, but for the interest of the dance game I’ve edited that out).

It’s a shame that thus far I haven’t been able to find any info on the 4 original songs by Nana-chan – the stage they did for this game at TGS which was shown on TV live didn’t demo any of the Nana-chan songs as they were more interested in showing the mainstream Jpop songs, and the official website is still quite bare. At least from the videos I’ve seen the game actually looks a bit more promising than I had previously thought – yes I was expecting this game to be shovelware, despite the fact that I was going to fork over yens just for the Nana-chan and iM@S song anyway. At least now I can buy it with just a bit more confidence, I think.
