History

A flick of the stylus is the joke in Nintendo's Rhythm Heaven. Short rhythm scenes from 2008 use a tap, and that flick is the hardware gag.

A chorus line, a golf swing, or a robot assembly asks for the flick at the right beat, and a miss gets a comic groan. The DS game sits between the Game Boy Advance entry that stayed in Japan and the later Wii and 3DS entries.

Those bookends matter: the Advance game did not leave Japan, and the Wii and 3DS games came after this flick-based set. The DS edition is the one where the stylus flick is the recurring punchline.
