The video was unfortunately removed when it was revived on Gold CS, as Konami was trying to aim for the Japanese equivalent of an E rating (although the video was already on 7th Style s home version already, and it seemed to have no effect on the rating).

Considered by many to be one of the forerunners of the modern music game.

Of course when they realized how popular the arcade version was, Konami would milk the genre for all its worth with spin-offs (involving dance, drumming, smacking colored buttons, and waving your hands through proximity sensors like a maniac), and an endless assortment of Mission Pack Sequels and reboots.

Originally classified as a DJ simulator (the game back then did have more of a hip-hophouse oriented soundtrack), with what the game has evolved into since the dawn of the 21st century, its anything but.

This fills up a Groove Gauge; if the gauge finishes above a certain threshold, you pass, its just that simple.

While the games core is simple enough, things can get real idiotic, real fast.

First released in 1996, lasting with new versions until THE FINAL in 2002, where the aging series (it used the exact same hardware for its entire life) was finally discontinued in favor of.

Kept the same basic gameplay, but added two additional keys to the control array (for a total of 7), a fancier cabinet (with more lights, more effectors, a widescreen monitor, turntables on opposite ends, an LED marquee, and a bass platform), and a difficulty curve that keeps on getting worse every year.

Whatd you expect when the 20th version is on its way very soon.

It makes some sense, given the the title of the song, but still.

The IIDX series did start with mostly J-pop and RB, but then began to diversify, to the point where on most songs, the turntable is just another trigger for sounds that arent scratching.

The OMES on Resort Anthem had gratuitous scratching as its main gimmick.

On the standard cabinet, the game was known as beatmania II, but the Deluxe cabinets carried the title beatmania IIDX on its artwork and software instead.

Later on, the standard cabinet was discontinued, leaving only the deluxe one.

At this point, beatmania IIDX became the official name of the series.

It was fixed for the arcade version of Happy Sky (with a fixed version on the Normal difficulty, and the glitched version on the Hyper difficulty).

But, when the song was revived on the home version of RED, Konami decided to troll players by adding a new Another chart.

It gets worse on the home versions of DJ Troopers and Empress, where hidden codes (spelling out G-J-H or G-J-A by scrolling to songs starting with those letters, and pressing Select on each one) lets the player use those timing windows on any song.

Beating all the songs in the area will either lead to the True Final Boss as the One More Extra Stage.

There were still bonus bosses, but instead of an Extra Stage system, there was an event called the World Tour, where earning dellar points in-game could be used to unlock various things.

Fittingly, the harder unlocks were hidden in the World Tour.

While its the One More Extra Stage song, if one listens to it without knowing that, theyd hear.

Not too intimidating, is it Tell that to the 667 scratches.

Yet, it will definitely make an inexperienced player frown, especially at the end (of course).

Class mode also provides the infamous Kaiden course, which usually consists of the 4 hardest songs available on that particular game.
