DDR X3 VS 2ndMIX (AC) (Japan)

Now I get the feeling that X3 vs. 2nd Mix was intended to be a catch-up mix after all (tokyoEVOLVED was featured in Japan's HOTTEST PARTY as well). So tE is technically a "from CS" song then, like Silver Dream. I have my doubts about any NEW boss songs at this point.

But it is nice that the HP transplants finally get Doubles charts. Even the Doubles charts are new to us in the western world.

How do we know this was intended to be a catch up mix? What if DDR 2010 and DDR II were being developed simultaneous as DDR X3 vs 2nd mix and rather than creating all new content for both games, they just borrowed heavily from the up coming arcade mix instead?

Hmm, "tour" of boss songs eh?

Perhaps a World Tour also featuring London, New York, and Osaka??

But how do we know What if DDR 2010 and DDR II were being developed simultaneous as DDR X3 vs 2nd mix and rather than creating all new content for both games, they just borrowed heavily from the previous games instead?

I suppose there wouldn't be such a complaint if these were good revivals, but the charts for most of these songs are just very uninspired. The brand new charts to be honest are actually pretty good. Naoki has been creating CS exclusive songs for awhile now, what would stop him, tag, etc from making CS exclusive songs, rather than making these songs anticipating they will be in a future AC release. If that was the case why didn't we see these be transferred to X2 (especially the songs DDR I CS)from and have some of the songs which would have e appeared in X2 appear in X3 vs something. I swear if we had some crossover from the Ultramix/Universe series I guarantee we wouldn't have such complaints.

I wonder if we will be getting a DDR III?

I really still hope for KONAMI to put on AC the other KONAMI Originals from DDR STRIKE/Ultramix.

A City tour extra stage isn't bad for me if this will have osaka, tokyo, new york, and london EVOLVED.

I'd be more interested to see what their X-ratings are... And to see if they'll gain Ver. Ds.

Basically, the tokyoEVOLVED will go through a 'tour' of Japan, with it being playable in the north (Hokkaido) and traveling south every day. At the same time, it will also start a tour in the south (Okinawa) and make its way North every day.

There will also be a third route that will contain osakaEVOLVED.

Ohhh shit yeah. Osaka!

This seems like good news. Even thought its old songs but hey, they are underrated bosses. Now, Konami...Please? Re-do L.A. Evolved. Also is their any word about the other EVOLVED songs besides Tokyo and Osaka?

At least we can be hopeful for this:

"ツアーで回るEXTRA STAGE曲の、ENCORE EXTRA STAGEへの進出条件は現状ロックされています。この秘密もいずれ・・・。"

The unlock conditions for the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE for these traveling EXTRA STAGE songs is still locked. But the secret will eventually...

If NYEvolved rears its ugly head in this mix, then you may be right.

Well, half the songs from DDR 2010 and DDR II were written and charted along with the X2 CS songs.

I never saw this before on X3 so I took a video.

I dont think its much though, just talking about IR4

Yup, that information thing was added with the latest online update.

The EXTRA TOUR system. I like this. How about the Asia Machine outside Japan? Can they unlock this too?

I saw the text that ちなみに、アジア地域については、「東京都」を通っているときにプレーできます。(you can play when through [Tokyo])

I don't understand what it means.

He's just saying you can go to Tokyo to play, kind of a dick thing to say haha.

Geez. Too bad.. For Japan only? OMG that's so unfair..

---

Maybe the "Extra Tour" thing has something to do with the update they had where you can see where you've played before. Maybe if you play at <x> different locations you'll unlock songs.

and hopefully have nothing to with EVOLVED songs.

The next song of Extra Stage to unlock is Osaka Evolved

I bet osakaEVOLVED will be a 14 in S-, and tokyoEVOLVED will be a 16 in S-
