New Taiko Drum accessory patent filed by Namco Bandai

Surprise, surprise. A Taiko no Tatsujin peripheral was found in the Japanese trademark database, which was filed by Namco Bandai. The accessory is composed of soft material, though, unlike the most recent drum add-on. Images provided in the patent show that the Wiimote can be placed inside the drum and then, by lightly knocking it, notes can be played. This new peripheral makes more financial sense than the plastic drum for Namco Bandai. Because it’s inflatable, it’ll cost less to produce.
