Beat connection: Gaijin send us on a second video Bit.Trip
Games blog Joystiq got their hands on a new trailer for Gaijin Games' upcoming WiiWare game Bit.Trip: Beat, and this one does a fantastic job of allaying any fears that the Beat would be a walk through the 4-bit park.
It also gives an even stronger sensation of how tightly integrated the music will be with the gameplay: the first used its dot-reflections as flourishes over the underlying melody, but this better conjures a feeling of making the music with skilled play.
Also, Gaijin, if you're listening (and if you are, can you drop me a note via the upper right link?), this is a long shot, but I promise to gift the game to each and every one of my Wii-owning friends if you can manage to shoehorn in DS connectivity that lets me use Taito's add-on paddle controller.

My worst fears after seeing the first glimpse of the game are realized.

Also, the sideways breakout was awesome.

My thoughts exactly: sometimes, it just has to be a paddle.

Hey Brandon, I tried finding a way to email you, but couldn't figure it out! Dude, the Taito spinner would be CHOICE! Sadly, the game is nearly done and it would have taken nearly a month more to support DS play let alone the crazy negotiating we'd have to do to get Taito to tell us how to work magic with their device! Still, that is one of the best spinner controllers ever. I applaud your suggestion. Let me know how you like the game once it's out!
