Largest number of each Bemani/Music series at a single location?

When I was there I did not find a IIDX machine, just the 5 key 6th mix. but a year or two later I read that they had one.

I assume the ITG thing musta been in 2004 or 2005 since ITG didn't exist in 2003.

The Circus Circus machine was the one that was in my garage lol. Its now at Under The Big Top for everyone to play in St. Charles IL. Only way I know this is because I found a slip inside the machine explaining it was on location at circus circus. When the machine was given to me it was running core remix and had a broken DJ Main, it also had all the 6th Mix stuff on the cabinet and had the manual for it, but did not have the kit.

As for me... Most bemani games I saw at one location...?

Gameworks Schaumburg (a couple years ago)
DDR EXTREME
DDR SuperNOVA
DDR X
DDR X2
Guitar Hero Arcade
in the groove

Oh and Six Flags Great America had a TON of music video games one year. I will never forget that year... Had a lot of good times not only on rides, but in the arcade as well...
DDR EXTREME
DDR EXTREME
DDR EXTREME
DDR EXTREME
DDR MAX2 7th Mix
Dancing Stage EuroMIX2 (I shit you not, it was the only one in America at the time)
in the groove 2 (R16, still untouched hack-wise to this day)
Pump it up Perfect Collection (never worked all year to my knowledge)
Percussion Freaks 3rd Mix
hiphopmania Complete Mix 2
hiphopmania Complete Mix 2
MTV Drumscape (only one I have ever seen)

Keep in mind there was 4 or 5 arcades that year at Six Flags so they were scattered around the whole park. The Music game selection is much smaller now.

I used to have a picture of the 5 dance games in a row. Those were some good times that never lasted long. in the groove got thrown out two months later followed by DDR EXTREME 8 months afterwards.

Now the most I see at one location is mostly because they are my own...
Under The Big Top St. Charles, IL.
DDR EXTREME (or any mix earlier)
DDR SuperNOVA
Guitar Freaks 11th Mix
drummania 10th Mix
Ez2Dj PLATINUM SPECIAL EDITION
beatmania THE FINAL
Guitar Hero Arcade


That would make Under The Big Top the capital of Music Video Games in Illinois. I know there are other venues outside Illinois with many more the what me and Under The Big Top offer though.

Haha, I played your machine.

Hmm, this place in Tachikawa west of Tokyo is said to have 7 Pop'n Music machines, 6 of which are the same mix (though that might be different now)

I will add it to the list but I still think there may be more. In the heyday a number of years ago there were arcades with 16 machines (One of them was Olympia in Omiya, but they have almost nothing now).

Edit> It seems Round One in Umeda (Osaka) has quite a bit of GF/DM and Dance Evolution love. I'll put that in as a place holder until I can find a place that has more:

Sorry for the bump, but like I said before, Round One Ikebukuro has a few records with 4 Dance Evolution, 6 Sound Voltex (tie), 10 Reflec Beat, 12 jubeat, 10 Project Diva, and 6 maimai machines.

Also, unless the locator is outdated, I just found out that Gameworks in Seattle, WA may actually have the current DDR record at 6 machines (although they're all different mixes).

---

Well, since the topic was bumped I updated the first post a bit. Round One Ikebukuro (the new one) is a Bemani/music game paradise.

---

i just noticed this lol

---

Read title. Most "Bemani/MUSIC series" at a single location. Other have posted Mai Mai and Project Diva and none of those are bemani. In fact players started using the word Bemani as a broad term for music games even if they are not made by Konami.

---

So ReRave is now BEMANI #confirmed.

---

if you know about that then why didn't you say "most music games in one location..." instead of "bemani"? you already know this, but still...

---

Read 3rd sentence from previous post by me.

---

yes, but i'm talking about you explicitly calling GHA and ITG BEMANI, not others.

also I went to the first page and only found "maimai" and "Project DIVA Arcade" on Aaron's post, which was titled "Largest number of each Bemani/Music series at a single location"... and he didn't even call them BEMANI.

so yeah.

---

Hey GHA DOES have the Konami's logo in it But I agree that it isn't really "Bemani". I just used it as a term for music games in general. Does it really matter? It doesn't change the fact its still a music game and is in line with the thread.

Not sure if we're still updating, but I believe Akihabara Leisure Land 2nd has busted the jubeat record with 12 machines.

Anyone remember Dance Beat Arcade? I think they had Extreme, 5th mix, a IIDX machine, keyboardmania, Disney's Rave, drummania, ParaParaPardise, Dance Freaks, and a Guitar Freaks. This place was pretty legit back in the day.

actually Round1 Ikebukuro also has 12 jubeats. and they're set to 2 plays / 6 songs per 100 yen!!! plus nice Sony and audio technical headphones provided, definitely a better location than leisure land 2nd

Though the 2 plays per credit is a campaign available in most of the Round One and doesn't involve only Jubeat but most of the otoge, switching from day to day.
By the way that same Round 1 increased its Voltex to 6 machines (+1 IIDX), it's not the only one with 6, but that's still the most I ever saw for Voltex

edit: My miss, I was thinking about Project Adores and not Round 1 Ikebukuro (which for my defense is also a Round 1 but with a different name)
