NDS Longplay #9: Elite Beat Agents

Elite Beat Agents is a music video game developed by iNiS and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS handheld game console. It was first released in North America, and has since been released in Europe and South Korea . It is the spiritual sequel to Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, a Japanese rhythm game released in 2005, sharing many common elements with it. Similar to Ouendan, the player taps and drags on indicated locations on the touch screen of the DS in time to the rhythm of the music to score points, while the upper screen shows comic-style scenes of the fictional “Elite Beat Agents“ cheering on others in tough situations through their dance moves. The improvements made in this game were implemented in the Japanese game’s sequel, Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2.
