This game has way more Japanese text than I can handle - however, I was still able to play a few songs and get a general sense of how it works. It has a complete karaoke mode! (impossible for me, obviously) Ok, cool things: a. There's all kinds of songs - including traditional Japanese instrumentals (with flutes and stuff) - and it's kind of neat to play the same song a few times, with with a different instrument. b. Rather than notes moving, there's a "cursor" (tracker) that moves across the screen towards the notes - makes it a bit easier to follow (for me) EXCEPT for the "carriage returns" - when the cursor changes lines (there are about 3 lines on the top screen?) c. Apparently there's a full-blown midi-tracker system you can use to make your own music - which is way cool, but I didn't try it out. d. Karaoke? Really? On the DS? Wow!
