partially I say no...I've heard that in some city of Italy there's some arcade machine of Taiko no Tatsujin(I don't know which city though...)but the people of my country have the tendency to play with portable Taiko no Tatsujin(for example the psp or ds version).
I don't know if this is good or bad but someway it's funny(though I want to play badly with a arcade version of this beautiful game...)

[yuu_yuki]

Arcade's playing much fun than portable or ds because it's like a workout for your arms. =D

[Resdel]

I truly agree. But be prepared to come with some hand gears or protection on. After playing the game in the arcade, your hands may have some scratch marks due to the fiction of your hand, your sweat and the taiko sticks(bachi), just like me. But don't let that demoralize you. The real drum is still more fun to play, nevertheless.

[yuu_yuki]

Resdel, from my experience, i used protection gear too - gym gloves.
But it doesn't help much. I'm not sure about the rest though.

For me it's more of getting your hands to accustom to the bachi and after a certain period of constant oni playing, get your skin torn, injured, swollen etc, all will be fine. xD

[ongchinkai]

Like me, you should see my hands. Sometimes I would play until blisters appear, then I would play some more to burst them (to let the blood out).

Sounds extreme, but it's all part and parcel of playing, I guess.

[yuu_yuki]

So far, my blisters don't really bleed but i tear them off myself.. haha

haha ck im like you in the past.. i let the blood out until i had to change plaster every song, and ppl pass by also donate me plaster xD LOL.

but then after that 0 blisters etc arms no more pain. can play nonstop like nobody's business xDD

so its just a development stage after that things will go fine.

[yuu_yuki]

The thing is.. I got blisters when i'm using the arcade bachi.
When i change to my own bachi, i no longer got blisters anymore xD

=EDIT=
And we should stick to the main thread of why are we in this forum now.
Sorry for sidetrack. Let's not off topic now. =)
