Theatrhythm Final Bar Line devs explain lack of touch controls
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Previous Theatrhythm games allowed games to use touch controls, but Final Bar Line is all about buttons. This is in spite of the fact that Switch does have a touch screen.

Suzui, speaking with Dengeki Online, brought up one factor which is that Switch has a capacitance-type touchscreen while 3DS featured a pressure-type one. While there was talk about supporting button controls and touch controls for each song, he said that the team “already needed multiple copies of sheet music for each song to account for difficulty levels.”
Here’s our translation of the comments from Suzui and Hazama:
