Unfortunately, the development team behind Rhythm Heaven, Nintendo SPD Group 1, was merged into Nintendo EPD in 2015. Since then, besides a Wii U re-release of Rhythm Heaven Fever in 2016, the series has been dormant. Finally, in 2015, Rhythm Heaven Megamix, which combines select minigames from the previous three titles, was released on Nintendo 3DS. Rhythm Heaven was followed by Rhythm Heaven Fever on the Wii three years later, which also wowed fans. It wasn’t until Rhythm Heaven released worldwide on the Nintendo DS in 2008-9 that it attained its cult status. However, that game was only released in Japan. In fact, Rhythm Tengoku, the first title in the franchise, was the final Nintendo-developed game to be released on the GBA. The Rhythm Heaven series got its start on the Game Boy Advance.
