The Maestromusic

This article is part of our Japanese Obscurities feature. We put out a whole book about them, which is available as both a full color hardcover and a Kindle ebook from Amazon! If you’d like to see more of these features, please check out the book and if you enjoyed it, leave a five star review so we can do a follow up with even more interesting, offbeat, or historically important Japanese games!

The PlayStation is known for having creative peripherals, but The Maestromusic might have one of the strangest controllers on the entire platform. Though it can be played with a Dualshock, The Maestromusic was packaged with a conductor baton controller. It features “A” and “B” buttons, but the controller is primarily used by waving it vertically. Not only does this feel like a coincidental test run for the Wii remote’s waggle capabilities, it also works well and makes for a properly unique experience.

monday mornings, i start off with work. soon lunch time came and i thought would eat lunch with them cause it would be the last time i would get to do that. soon enough peachy came by and we went to the new office with our supervisor. 

eventually, time for class came and it was almost time to get xia’s concert tickets. trying to buy tickets through a phone and with school wifi and against koreans is the worst thing possible especially if you are in class and you can’t fully rage.

let’s just leave it at the fact that i tried miserably and also failed to buy tickets even in the furthest seat possible. ALL SOLD OUT. i literally felt like my soul left me.

after class ended,  i joined 2 friends from class and we went to alchon to go eat. i was basically sulking during dinner the whole time. at alchon, i got something different this time. it was okay.

went to han river with glenda and hyeeun. we basically walked all the way to the banpo bridge and when we got there, the water show came on. we were basically just chatting and chatting and it started to get cold and we all started to head back.
