What if Konami had continued to release more BEMANI games for home consoles?

Will this thread gets locked? This doesn't even discuss existing BEMANI games, just someone's hypothetical Console releases.

Rock Revolution Series
Rock Revolution (PS3, 360, Wii, DS)
- Despite Konami's long history with rhythm games, this game is a complete disaster

Rock Revolution 2 (PS3, 360, Wii, DS)
- Released 4 months after the first Rock Revolution, this game corrects all the mistakes made by its predecessor and boasts an impressive 400 song tracklist with lots of DLC each week. Sales numbers put Rock Band and Guitar Hero to shame and the game easily claims the 2009 Game of the Year award.

Kasabian: Rock Revolution (PS3, 360, Wii, DS)
- Competing with Activison and Harmonix's band-focused games, Kasabian: Rock Revolution dominates the charts and puts them to shame. The band reaches newfound worldwide success and The Beatles are mostly forgotten.

Rock Revolution 3 (Konami Entertainment System)
- In a surprise move, Konami announces their own home console, the Konami Entertainment System at E3 2010, and going forward all of their games will be exclusive to the system. The KES/RR3 bundle is the hottest item during the holiday season. The PS3, 360 and Wii combined sell 25 systems, all of them dumb people that thought they were buying the Konami Entertainment System

Kasabian 2: Rock Revolution (Konami Entertainment System)
- A game featuring music from the sequel to Kasabian, the game is successful enough to drive Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo out of the console manufacturing business as they all start to release their games for the KES.

Rock Revolution 4 (Konami Entertainment System)
- The game introduces mines which were widely reviled by everybody that played it, critics and gamers alike. The game was a sales disaster causing Konami to declare bankruptcy and pretty much marking the end of the videogame industry.

Update 08/04/2020: Added jubeat, REFLEC BEAT and SOUND VOLTEX games list

---

Could not stop laughing.

---

And the 😬 goes up further. So stupid, how can you play jubeat or RB on a touch screen that can only register one finger/stylus at a time? Fucking stupid...

---

Maybe you would have to use both fingers, modify the gameplay so that it is played with a single finger or there is a game mode that can be played with a single finger.

---

It would even be the same game anymore playing Jubeat or Reflec on a device that only detects one touch lmao. What, are all charts going to have single notes only?

---

Or maybe, get a bunch of iTunes credit and buy jubeat or RB song packs. They work great, specially on an iPad. And the best part is, they exist! Not some dream you have.

---

can someone please lock this god-forsaken thread already

Lucky for you they’re starting to do more game ports for PC. We won’t need this thread!

Games like beatmania IIDX INFINITAS and SOUND VOLTEX III GRAVITY WARS (PC) are only supported in Japan. Because they require the use of an e-AMUSEMENT CLOUD account and pay a monthly subscription.

Therefore, I demand Konami to bring those games to the west through the Steam platform. I want games like beatmania IIDX, pop'n music, SOUND VOLTEX, GITADORA and NOSTALGIA to be on Steam.

Once they are on Steam. remove support with e-AMUSEMENT CLOUD service and make new songs arrive via free updates or by DLC and remove monthly subscription for once you buy one of BEMANI games. You no longer have to pay anything else.

And by the way that these games have support for the Workshop to add songs made by the community, as many songs from previous installments that were not revived in current installments as original and own songs made by the community.

---

Well, shit, now that you've DEMANDED it, I guess they HAVE to

---

I'd down for the idea of having the games on Steam, but I don't think you can do a subscription service this way. A subscription service is the best way to go with these games because only hardcore fans are going to drop $300 + for all the DLC songs. And no Konami is not going to roll out free DLC for these games if they do go to Steam. Why do free DLC when people are willing to pay up to play other IIDX songs? It's business 101.

---

Senior, people outside of Japan CAN subscribe to those subscriptions. They take workarounds but they work. Many people in the community outside of Japan have succeeded making them work. Your demands mean nothing to Konami. You’re just one guy. They don’t care about your demands and your hypothetical console releases. Beg someone to give you membership to *bleep* because you’re not getting jack.

Or buy a fucking cab.

---

Alright I've had enough of you. You need to stop acting self entitled and grow up. Your demands are stupid and unrealistic and mean crap to Konami. Shut the hell up pal. Can someone lock this please? I'd really appreciate it. This is ridiculous. Also I love how you keep ignoring me and continue to ramble on and continue to act foolish when everyone gives you facts of the matter and act like an entitled little fool.

shut the fuck up, the whole lot of you
