"suffering from success" |
welcome back, Welcome To Wonderland
in all seriousness, i'm so fucking happy to see what they're bringing to the table here. feels like it's been forever since we've gotten a real shake-up. not that the games have been bad (far from it) but they were feeling homogenous after a while. i desperately wish one of these would come my way up here to CNY.

NOOOOOO. Literally one of the most fun games Bemani has ever developed and they abandoned it despite it having a strong fanbase

Dance ArounD was such a waste of time and resources considering how nice the cabinet looked. The younger audience they wanted to grab with it didn't play it enough and the fans of Dance Evolution didn't come back to enjoy it, so it was all around a failure, not sad to see it go. And DanceRush had so much potential I loved the concept, but Konami didn't care about it enough and popularity waned due to not enough frequent content updates, no new versions to keep it from getting outdated looking, and a no call no show at future KAC's which meant it's demise was all but guaranteed. So sad to see it go.
ANYWAY back on topic! I'm really hype for the new Pop'n music, it's a very refreshing change, and knowing this is gonna crop up in the US at Round 1's and other arcades has me even more excited, and I'm really glad Konami is having a change of heart allowing arcades outside Round 1 to buy a select few Bemani games. The future looks good for Bemani!

The fact that Dancerush didn’t get a random crossover for April Fools 2025 was very telling.Post #25 · Posted at 2025-07-07 10:00:11pm 2.5 hours ago

I would argue that the lack of a SPARK FESTIVAL last summer was much more telling than the lack of an AFD joke crossover.
But I digress, this is a thread about pop'n, not Dancerush :v

Genres are confirmed back. All the new songs except BOW AND ARROW (license) have one.
I wonder if they'll add them retroactively for the songs from the Lapistoria - J&F era... probably not, though.

The giant popkuns look like they would be satisfying to hit.
There used to be an edit someone in the community made of the pop'n music logo that said "big colorful buttons" and I think that describes my feelings perfectly. I wish I could find it.
