DanceDanceRevolution A3 (AC)

Huge if true

WTF Konami is realeasing so many things right now

Megalara Garuda is officially the first song to be rated as a 16 on

lol, I'm actually kinda conflicted here because, aside from those obnoxious 24th note bursts from 0:57-1:17 being hilariously awful, I think the rest of the chart is relatively fine as an 18.

---

BANGER ALERT!

---

Yep, that's easily my new favorite A3 song. Banger is right.

---

Most of the new HP charts I am fine with. I Want Your Love is the inverse of what they did to I'm Flying Away: turned one freeze-heavy chart into a jump-heavy one and then the inverse with I'm Flying Away. I find both results to be meh.

If Albida doesn't at least get a 18-, I imagine a bunch of ZiV posters are gonna submit their custom charts instead lmao!

Hudson has been quiet as of late. =p

Ngl kinda curious if they are going to rerate otp with Megalara Garuda being a 16 both on DSP and DDP.

Of course all of those jubeat charts are paid exclusive content... I hope they'll become available someday on my local golden cab (it carries Japanese exclusives), but the odds are slim that it'll be any time soon. Heck, finally getting to play Firestorm was one of my favorite things about the version update...

I understand that Konami is probably trying to increase profits in what I assume is it's least profitable division

But it sucks that you can't just buy the packs in Grand Prix, you also have to keep an active subscription for the crossovers to remain in A3. And I don't think they're going to become default songs further down the line either.

We're losing more songs:

These are Vocaloid songs that are take down by Crypton Media / Sega.

Next Golden League song to get a chart.

---

aw JESUS this is going to hurt, as if the Expert chart wasn't already brutal enough. Seems like an 18 is coming.

---

If they're gonna add charts to all the Golden League songs, I hope they pick up the pace a little bit... Assuming 1 chart per month we wouldn't get one for STAY GOLD or Teleportation until 2024.

I hope so too. And there are several of them I'm really curious to see. Glitch Angel and Muteki Buffalo for instance

No shock arrows for this one, boys



Also D-

DDR should considere summit DDR ultramix and universe in the arcade too apart to Hottest Party songs.

---

Yes. It's strange this only ever happened in X2 and never again.

It's been publicly stated that Konami doesn't want to acknowledge the Hawaii studio's games. It's highly unlikely that we'll ever see the Xbox originals again. It's possible that we got the uni3 songs because it coincided with Hottest party 3.

---

Konami Japan actively acknowledges Universe 3 because they had some involvement in development (alongside Hudson Soft). Some songs from that game are definitely a possibility (especially the higher tier songs like Concertino in Blue, etc.).

I doubt we'll see songs from the earlier Ultramix games for various reasons (A Different Drum has closed up shop so licensing for those songs and the Bemani remixes are in a gray area, some of the IIDX crossovers can't return because of JASRAC fees, etc.), but the main reason is that they would prefer to focus on newer stuff. If they DO dive back into their old CS song inventory, they're being re-done with brand new charts as seen in Starmine, Double Tornard, etc.
