New Rhythm Game Announced in Japanese Nintendo Direct

Remember Rhythm Heaven? If you don't, start remembering as soon as you can, because Nintendo's announced a new game in that series that could just get us closer to an Elite Beat Agents-style professional sport.

Yes, replete with a jumbotron, sideline staff, and a thing with a chain that will be moved about a yard every time one Elite Beat Agent tops another during a three hour spectacle of dancing in Men-in-Black-style suits. Uhhh, anyway, yeah, Rhythm Tengoku for 3DS. Check it out in the video above and then read more coverage from this week's Nintendo event:
