How to unlock the Saving Money is My Hobby! achievement in Taiko no Tatsujin: The Drum Master! - Definitive Guide

This isn't like the other coin achievements where you just need to earn a total amount. Nah, this one wants you to be holding 87,600 coins at one time.

Best way to grind coins in my opinion is just enable the Perfect option (pick a song, open the options menu, and scroll down to Special, you'll find Perfect in there. Make sure you hit the cn_A button/Enter key to confirm), load up any song, wait until you fail, and repeat.

You can use a turbo controller (or if you're on PC an auto clicker can work too) to grind this out if you wish and I seriously recommend you do because trust me, this is not a grind you're going to want to actually sit through. You're only going to net about 3,000 coins an hour so expect this to take a while.

So I just want to give some help here if you are grinding this and don't have an turbo controller or have the game on PC. It gonna cost you about £12 to do it this way but tbh I didn't mind paying out.

So first of all I bought a auto clicker, I found one on ebay for £6. It works fantastically.

Secondly I went to find a xbox remote play controller app for my phone. There's a bunch on there and one of the apps was free but it wasn't smooth to use.
I ended up buying the XBXplay controller app. It cost £6. It allows you to turn your phone into a controller. It runs smoothly and is easy to use, there's also a reddit forum if you want to check that out.

So basically I turned on remote play on my xbox and used my xbxplay app to make my phone be the controller. I then set up a level to play on taiko (I chose freedom xi song with perfect mode on). Then I placed the auto clicker over the A button on my phone. And ta-daa! The game is auto grinding for me.

There is probably a free way of doing this but I was struggling to find something that worked and tbh the controller app is amazing and worth it imo. Auto clicker could come in handy in other games where you need to press A to grind constantly 🤣.

Currently my coins are 59,410. I'll leave it on over night and see how many coins I'll get by morning~

I got 11000+ coins in about 7 hours with turbo on Xbox One S. The game is running from an external SSD.

I tried this on my PC and is by far the fastest method to grind coins, you can use a script to do so meanwhile youre working, sleeping or even playing in your console

Been afking this with a megafire controller on XB4 and i'm at 81k. I Have to recommend you check in on the game every 10-12 hours, there seems to be a memory leak caused by jamming on the A button for hours on end. Just check that there is nothing strange like the music stuttering, if there is I would close the title and repoen to prevent something strange from happening.

Oops. Regret. Just spent so much in the store not realising this was an 'in the bank' achievement requirement. That'll teach me. Was also buying stuff randomly as time went on.

This achievement is stupid lol. I spent a little early on not realising this one existed, and the grind is so slow. I've just finished the achievement for 500 songs played and I'm still only 55% of the way to this one... and now I've exhausted my gold crown options on all songs (DLC included) on Easy and Normal. Rainbow is just a pain in the backside, so I'm gonna have do griiiiind the rest so slowly.

What a horrible achievement.

If you’re in no rush for coins at the start, you can play the bonus songs daily for a about 1500 per day. Gotta play X amount of bonus songs anyway, plus it adds to the 500 taiko results achievement.

1500 bonus songs, I don't think that's right unless i am doing something wrong. I get three bonus songs a day for 330 when I do nothing. How are you getting 1500?

@romo7816 I know this is a dead comment, but there is only a 100 bonus per song, so +300. I actually play Medium songs, so I get 510 per day (70 per song with no mistakes). Doing this without an Auto-Clicker or whatever it is on a controller really sucks.

I was going to semi-idle grind coins and just mash [A] while I looked at memes or whatever on my phone but that was tedious af laugh You are right this is not a grind you want to sit through. I think I'll just play naturally, no point in really rushing anything since so many people completed the game early anyways headspin

To unlock more coins for purchases or grinding towards the money achievements, you can play Ranked matches during Double Coin event hours. These events appear to occur at the same time daily according to Tis Shell, thank you for your comment.
During these events you earn about 400 for wins, 40 for losses. (But be aware there are a lot of smurf/cheater accounts so you aren't guaranteed to win a fair amount) Or you could grind out the song list on Easy and try your best to get a Gold Crown, this will get you the "First Gold Crown" bonus providing you get a Full Combo, you get these by not getting a single "Bad". "OK"s & "Good"s are fine. This will earn you 290 coins, the higher the difficulty the more coins you earn alongside Full Combo bonuses. But once you have a First Gold Crown on one difficulty for example, you can't replay the same difficulty on the same song and achieve the "First Gold Crown" Bonus. If you were to repeat the same difficulty on the same song, you will just get a bonus for Full Combo's which is about 60 coins.

You could play songs in Taiko mode, find one that has a fast intro note, (Hopes & Dreams in the Game Music category is a good one, thank you PhoenixWartooth for your contribution). Then before you select to play this song, press start and go to special and find "Perfect" if you confirm this along with 4.0 speed then if you miss the first note, the song will instantly end, putting you into the results screen, you will get an instant fail, this will earn you 10 coins regardless. This'll take about 20 seconds including loading times, this is also a good quick way to unlock the "Play Taiko Mode (MANY) Times" achievements.
Daily bonuses are on three songs each day and each of these will earn you 100 coins, these daily songs are distinguished by multicoloured stars on the side of the song.
Edit save or spend at your own discretion, I would probably not spend any coins until you breach the point of 87,600 coins and unlock this achievement, for the sake of possibly losing a lot of time on this achievement.

Input: Rather than down voting I would prefer for you to comment so i could adjust my solution to your benefit and further help others gain this achievement.

Good luck hunting, will edit if needed.

A good song is "Hopes and Dreams" in the Game category, if you're going for the fail the song quickly via Perfect method.

@doiruku please note that the double coin events are the same every day. I haven't been able to work out when every event is but i know one is at 20:00 - 22:00 GMT, and another is at 02:00 - 04:00 GMT

This is definitely not cumulative and you should make sure people know that in this guide.

I'd also like to double check if it's cumulative, the language in this achievement's description is different than the others.

The other coins achievements are cumulative, this one for 87600 you have to have saved up.

Can confirm I have gotten over 150K coins and I tend to spend mine around 40-50K so this has to be saved up in one foul swoop. So this guide is incorrect.

I'd recommend deleting or doing a strikethrough through the part about the this not being cumulative. I know you have an edit but it's just more confusing how you currently have it.

Ranked matches doesn’t help much because I am not good at it or opponents are too good or cheating some way. They drum roll insanely fast that I lose on that difference most of the time. That said I am pretty sure there are two double coin bonus (2 hrs) for ranked matches. Every 12 hours once

@allstar738 thank you for your contribution. I've taken out the accumulative part since it seems to be false.

@supkris i can confirm, in GMT timezone, there are far more than 2 double money events. i have been using them everyday: 02:00 - 04:00, 12:00 - 14:00, 16:00 - 18:00, and 20:00 - 22:00. Typically i will lose games to get to C rank and i can get a win streak up to the end of B+ rank and then repeat the process. You will get 400 for a win and 100 for having a win streak, increasing to 200 after your win streak reaches 10. Additionally, there are also 100/200 rewards for reaching accumulative wins (200/400 with 2x money)

I was not into ranked matches and was grinding "Into the Night" on normal for 70/110 (if I donderful it) repeatedly. Trust me I'm not Japanese but my 7-year-old can sing some of the lyrics of this song already.

And then... I decided to play ranked for the sake of it, and racked up 7 wins on the trot. Have to agree it's worth a try from time to time. I lost my streak eventually during the double coins hour (only managed 2 wins during the hour) but it didn't feel so bad

For those in EU/ME/A timezones, the double coin times seem to be 2 hours after Tis Shell's occurs, found it between 2 -4 pm, 6 - 8 pm and 10 - 12 pm so far

I agree with playing ranked matches to work your way towards this. During bonus times it's possible to get quite a lot of coins, even if you lose some matches. Outside of bonus times, you might get lucky and match with players who are dropping rank ready for the next bonus to come along. They will often just quit which gives 200 coins immediately.

I played for a few hours today and I have made over 20,000 coins, so hopefully I can get the achievement in a few days.

Only issue for me is that I ranked up into hard mode, and because I still won a couple of games I'm stuck there, so when everyone is full comboing easy songs, I will lose a lot.

Loads of good tips in this solution. Just one thing to add:
I totally agree with the premise of *not* spending any coins until getting this achievement, but if you're planning on the full completion I think it's worth checking the Shop contents every time you play. The 12 x specific costume/instrument items required for some of the other achievements can take *forever* to randomly appear. Yes, you could spend 1000 coins to refresh the Shop once this cheevo is in the bag, but that seems like a waste and a bit of a gamble. Buying these items has been my only exception to not spending anything on the grind to 87,000+ coins.

It's a little scummy, but for the 2x coin bonuses in ranked I've been purposefully losing a load of games in a row to end up in low B rank, and then proceed to go on long win streaks against newer players. It beats getting stuck in A rank where you have to sweat to win even one game.

So I'm garbage on any difficulty but easy but it seems it is still worth going for ranked wins when the double coin is active. I'm hovering on the border of C (easy) and B (normal). When I get into B I get stomped for 40 coins, then I fall back to C and usually win my first or second match for 400. 440 in every two matches pretty good. But yeah turbo controller / perfect fail is better, even if it is slower.

This solution is for PC

The fastest way to grind coins is to set the game on "perfect mode" and play the daily bonus songs.
You got 10 coins for the failure + 100 coins for the bonus. There is 3 bonus songs per day BUT, you can change the date on your computer to reset the daily songs.

I used to play the first two songs and during the third song, change the date. After the results screen, i got 3 new bonus songs, play the first two, change the date during the third... repeat.

With this method, i was able to gain 660 coins in less than 2 minutes. Approximatevly +19 000 coins per hour.

this is not the most convenient, but by far, the fastest. Plus : it will boost every other achievements
