Namco Bandai has opened a teaser site for something relating to Taiko: Drum Master. And if I had to bet on the situation, I’d say this could turn out to be a new game.
Taiko: Drum Master found a home on the DS and Wii in recent years. The franchise has also appeared on arcades, the PlayStation 2, PSP, and iOS/Android devices.
We’ll find out what the teaser is about in a little less than two weeks. You can keep track of the site here.

There’s lots of disappointing SEGA news going around today. Following the announcement about a restructuring of the company and cancellation of numerous titles, IGN has learned through a reliable source that the entire North American QA department has been shut down. Going forward, SEGA Europe will handle all QA responsibilities.
There have apparently been layoffs in marketing, design, social, and development as well.
According to the same IGN source, “any currently announced game” not related to Sonic, Football Manager, Total War, and Aliens will not be published by SEGA.
