maybe some of you have seen this before, but i haven't, and i guess it goes here it's a group of japanese people playing the first FMA opening, "Melissa" by Porno Graffitti, on the Nintendo DS. i can barely get my mp3 player to work, so i'm quite impressed. check it out.

Woah! That's scary!! Cool (how on earth did they get it so accurate?), yet very scary...

because japanese people have superpowers, duh


and oops! it seems PK rockin' has already posted something like this under FMA games (the thread i never check, cause i don't have any sort of game system ;__; ). my apologies.

WOW! .... *wordles* that was amazing! how they did that? I wanna too! first when the introduced them playings,that didn't sound like "melissa" but when they played together it sounded just like that! I can only say..AMAZING!

...That's just cool. They should do that with Asian Kung-Fu Generation's Rewrite and I'd be a happy (fan)girl. XD


(I'm sure you wouldn't ever see so many adult people in one place holding a Nintendo-handheld where I live. ^^; )

And... I think I'm really going to get a Nintendo DS once we get it here in Europe. I don't care if I don't have the money! I just want that thing! >__>

woa.. now this is impressive. XD

Wow, my parents may want to get one of those. They've always wanted to play a musical instrument but can't (resulting in the sending of me and my siblings to various music schools for years). Then again, they still don't have the eye-hand coordination needed when playing gameboy.

Amazing. Simply astonishing harmonic accuracy. Except for the interlude, where the higher register seemed a little too loud.

*applauds* wow, japanese people really do have superpowers. that's uber impressive, i can't even play a video game on those things very well, and they can play porno graffitti on them?? *feels untalented*

i wonder if i can split the sound file and download that to my phone and use it as a ringtone...? that'd kick ass... heh heh...

Wow...That sounds so much like the instrumental version of Melissa they have in the first Hagaren GBA game! *amazed*

whoa..... that was f-ing crazy!!! and they did that with only one cartridge! NOw I'm really getting the DS..

I'm Japanese... what super powers do I have???

w.... i tip my hat to them..... now i'd like to see a rewrite DS rendition... guess i'll have to go out and pick up like 7 DS's and give em to my friends this xmas just so i can try that.

o_O WOOt !

THat's really amazing, but you have to be Japanese to even think of that They must be good at remembering their own parts to play... it sounded really good.

Makes me wish I could get a DS now just to play music on it .

Only in Japan.

Didn't DS just come out? I just have Gameboy SP. Wow that was so cool I wish I was Japanese!

that is so cool. i want to get DS just to play music (even i dont play any instruments at all, just want to pay with it lol).

O_O;; whoa.

XD; i remember one day i got bored and found the notes of the melody of melissa ^^; i can play it on the flute

http://geocities.com/yayissues <-the site my friend made me make for her o_O; still under construction but the notes are there

Friend of mine imported it, and its an awesome game. 8 people can play off of 1 cartridge. It has both Melissa and Ready Steady Go, and both of them are pretty hard. But I love it. Cant wait till it comes out in the US, even though the songs will probably be different

OMG what geeks ^^ But I do have to give them credit

as you said, spiffy in a nerdy way...kinda freaky, thinking of how many middle aged adults are gathered around playing a song on video game systems...they're even in business suits, which makes it scarier

That brought a tear to my eye... That was great!!!!

OH MY GOD!!!! i'll cry, i must have 1..its amazing!! oh my god.. i think i'll order it now...OH MY GOD!!!

I suddenly have a frrling that this became a hmm... musical instrument promosion.. -.-

*mouthdrop* No way! Thats amazing!!! I mean, wow. Thats just so cool. *-* Though I would have expected younger people to be playing it. >.> Still, I cant think of any other words to discribe that!

I'm amazed that they could do that...I'm more amazed that a group of people who look like they would rather play classical music decided to grab GBA's and do that

Holy shoot...

Okay.....Yes.....I just saw alot of Japanese people playing DS.......what's cool about adults sitting then standing?????????? ( P.S. I love "Melissa." That part was cool. )

It's bad that the US version of DS took Melissa and Ready Steady Go out from the Jap DS..... FORK US DS... I am so getting a Jap DS from HK this year T_T (btw, I saw that link 3 months ago ^^; )

Uhh, what are you talking about? You know that's a game right? It's called Band Brothers (I think the US name is Jam With The Band). And the DS is region free, so you can import it and it will work fine on a US DS. No US release date has been set, and it will almost definately include different songs, so the chance of Melissa and Ready Steady Go being on there are pretty low. I've played it, and its awesome. If anyone wants any details, just ask

wow that was cool x] by the way blueices your smilie is so cool x]

Thanks I like to import random smilies on occasion.

suuuuugooiiiii!!!! that is amazing

That is freakin' sweet!!! Anyone know what game they're using?

Might be Warioware: Touched...

Somehow I think Im gonna be repeating myself a few times. But oh well, no big. The game is called Band Brothers, and it will be called Jam With The Band when it comes out in the US. No US release date has been set, and the song list (including Melissa and Ready Steady Go) probably wont be the same. If you want more details on how the game works, just ask

Do you have any idea what Wario Ware: Touched is?

Obviously not...

Nonono...I know what it is, what kind of idiot do you take me for? Anyway, I heard that there would be extras like touch-activated pianos and stuff like that. Thats why I thought it might be that. *is kinda insulted*

GOD that song is addicting to play! BUT sooo hard to play on hard mode! damn damn...

that is mind blowing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! gotta love FMA and DS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! was the first peroson in the whoel game shop were i live to get a ds (on tyhe release date)

WOW! They really DO have superpowers! It sounded really good! And no one lacked in the middle of it!
They could really start a Nintendo Ds band if they had more songs

Dude, that's scary. O_O

Okay, so the DS earns another point.

where can you get that game.
I have never seen it before. Maybe it's not in the US.

Thats just F***ing scary... o_O

Now I want a DS... *buys 7 DS systems and goes to Japan to get the music stuff* XD

That sounds so cool. I applaud (I suck at spelling ok) the Japanese! *claps*

That was just amazing, it really sounds good

lmao, I LOVE DS. PSP can't play songs without having to buy them first!

That is so cool... jeez... wish me and a bunch of friends could do that.. lol enter in the talent show... XDDD

That would be fun. But then all the little kids at the Talent Show would be like "WHO THE F*** IS THAT?!?"

Yet, it would be soooo much fun to play!

Lol that'd be true... but still, I'd be like at least WE can play a song on Nintendo DS!!
=D

o_O Wow, that was awesome!

Of course i know what I am talking about. I bought the Japanese version of the game and play Melissa literally every other day

Just that rumours did say most of the Japanese songs will be taken out, also, seeing that FMA dub does not play Melissa on TV (DVD version kept it tho) so I don't think US version of it will have Melissa.

Whatever, I got the Jpn version and I am all good ^-^
