Taiko-san Jiro 3 (also known as Taiko-san Jiro 3) is a Japanese rhythm game developed by Seika and published by Sony Computer Entertainment.

It was the first game to be released in Japan and is considered to be a pioneer of the genre. The game is based on a singer and her band, known as Taiko San Jiro, who perform rock songs. The game was originally released in 1996, and since then has been re-released in different formats and versions.

The gameplay is based on matching the beats of the music with the beats of the game, and as the player advances through the levels, the songs become longer and more difficult to match. The player can score points by matching the music and can also score points by getting a high score.
