"Gimme a mothaf----n' break!" |
I'm not holding my breath about DJ Mass returning, but it would be nice. I would love to have RAM and Dirty Androids back as well. There's really a lot of past contributors I would love to see return since I barely like anything from a lot of the newer contributors, but I know that's wishful thinking.

"This hat hurts" |
Chances of RAM and Pink Pong coming back are now very slim as both have contributed towards Naoki's game.
As we know of what happened to mao, that fate is very unfortunate towards anyone trying to get back into Bemani without being a hip doujin-artist.

RAM said "I’m ready to make a new song to BEMANI series, but Konami doesn't give me offer" before

Do we event know if it was DA that did Cosmic Cat and/or Flashes?
No official word at least. I'm sort of skeptical about that though. The songs do have a similar sound, but I think people are trying to put A with B mostly because we have not seen DA in Pendual yet.

Yay, moving on from Pendual which brought us nothing.
I wouldn't call the chrono diver songs nothing. And AFRO KNUCKLE. And Vulkan. And FANTASTIC THREE. And Despair of ELFERIA.
I can go on for a while; Pendual was a fine version to me.

inb4 IIDX 23: LAWNMOWER (The Legend Will Never Die!) ;DDDD
Kidding aside, part of me hopes they bring back the RPG/Quest mode that Spada and earlier had; the eAmuse event where you just pick between three kingdoms and level up your partner was a bit boring in comparison.
Also, I get this feeling that Konami is going to soon make a localized version of IIDX 23 somewhere down the line; if we're getting a location test for DDR 2014, why stop there? Especially now that we have eAmuse servers and the IIDX machines at R1 to justify giving it another try, compared to last time when they only had one machine in Naperville. But that's just me.

DDR 201X is justified in receiving a US loctest because out of all of the BEMANI series, DDR is the only one that ever made any impact in the States. It's unlikely that IIDX 23 is gonna ever see the light of day here, given how previous attempts at bringing the series to an American audience went.
We have a better chance at seeing DDR Vol.2 OST than a US loctest of IIDX 23. Both are welcome to happen at any time, though. ;)

I was thinking this as well. Hell my idea is if this happens, call IIDX 23: THE WORLD and part of the games gimmick would be going to different parts of the globe with songs. If not there could be a location test in the US later down the line after this one. That or IIDX just doesn't show up outside Japan like normal.Post #32 · Posted at 2015-07-02 08:25:35am 9.2 years ago

on another note, we are going to see another purge of Naoki songs, eh?

If this were 7, or even 5 years ago, I would agree with you 100%, but the difference between now and 2007 is that IIDX has become a favorite in R1; if that wasn't the case, we wouldn't have more machines appear in any of the newer locations. There's clearly a few people who have been playing these games to warrant importing more machines to all of their locations, even if they are touted as being exclusive to that chain. And California has plenty of IIDX players compared to Naperville circa 2007, where you only had 5 or so people hogging the machine:
Times have changed since then, and I'm sure if they were able to make a location test, they will be much more successful, even if it was only in Puente Hills like DDR will be.

That would be awesome! And maybe they would get artists from Europe and North America as well and have their own "World Music" section a la Pump It Up.

I was hoping for a Western-themed iidx (ESCOPETA) or Fire+Ice (Firice/Ignis Glaciem) or Nature (ECORA).

Have any of these latest mixes really brought anything, though? Aside from new songs and a new UI there's not going to be much 'new' in this mix...
800 posts yay me

There was the R-Random as well as the Expand Judge on Pendual (lol, who uses Expand Judge though...)
There was the Mirror mode in Dan as well (pretty cool if you ask me)
It's more like a big update with lots of new songs at once (and the "joy" of seeing all your scores resetted)
Well, Kupuro's story actually reached an end in Pendual, but I kind of hope they still continue to have him, at least as a customisable character (yeah, I like getting all the possible parts for my Kupuro)
I also kind of hope we'll get back some stories with the Roots 26 characters but I can always dream
Anyway, I personally like a good portion of the new artists too, so I don't mind fresh blood that much (would like IZM or sampling Master too though). If I can have a new USAO song, as well as m1dy, onoken, etc...that would be more than enough to please me

I'm going to be honest, Qprogue was an awful event if not the worst event ever. Let's take tricoro's Ω-ATTACK and make it even slower and more painful. Not only that, QprogueDX had like 1, MAYBE 2 good songs in the entire thing.
Qpronicle was awful too but at least it gave us good songs like Cosmic Cat, Flashes, and Despair of ELFERIA. However if someone called pendual a total flop, I would not argue it. It could have and should have been much better.

I just don't see the point of these events when they take forever to get through and barely have any songs connected to them, not to mention there are usually convoluted ways to gain access to the songs.

As long as we don't have another event like Chrono Seeker, that one was really awful.
