Yep.  Both were terrible, very expensive, and are now ridiculously rare.

Agreed, those Nintendo music games just felt wrong somehow. It felt like a stretch when there was a music maker in Mario Paint, though I still played around with it quite a bit. You can't really do much there without knowing how to read sheet music though and I don't.

I'll also agree that DoReMe might be a bit odd getting started but I felt it was smooth sailing after the start.

Similarly, you might look into Pop N' Music - its a 9 button game where all the buttons are huge and arranged similar to Beatmania or Keyboardmania. There is a simfile player for it as well but I had trouble finding songs for it so I didn't play it very much, even though the simfile player was pretty good.
I've never seen one of those machines in person (which I find funny because I've seen 2 Para-Para machines in person and the novelty fades quickly so I don't get why places have it).

Still, I don't think any of the Bemani games actually train you to play an instrument except Keyboardmania, though Beatmania sure makes me think I'm awesome.

Yep, a girlfriend of mine from college was housesitting for some old lady one time, when I happened upon the SNES version. The old lady had this massive cat (looked like a big pitbull, scary), and when a bunch of us came over it ran off and hid. As we were searching for the cat, I found a MIB SNES piano set. I wanted to offer her something, but I couldn't because then she would have known we went through her ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---. Turns out the cat was dead in the back of the closet.

I purchased one of these for my daughter (4) and now I can play Beethoven's Fur Elise.  She's not so interested...I'm hopping the Sponge Bob cart i picked up for cheap gets her into it.

Glaine:
Thats cool about playing Fer Elise, but I don't know any songs that kids would want to play but the theme song from Sponge Bob.

If she likes it you are going to hate hearing about who lives in a pineapple under the sea after the first day and will be buying her headphones.
