I'm actually really excited - they'll have both Tricoro and X3 and apparently after the convention they're staying in Detroit.

I hope so! There's hardly ever been any Bemani-related conventions out this way, so I'm pumped.

Ahhh, I wish I could be there for that! I also find it funny when Pump It Up and TECHNIKA are considered as BEMANI products by some people.

"OMG KON!" |
I'll be staff at this con so I'll be there. I only have to load and unload games for Credits Remaining so I'll be free on almost all the days to do as I please.
Dammit, why Michigan of all places? I wonder if this means there will be more DDR X3 imports into the US.
No it does not mean that. That machine got a kit from Japan and all the other machines that are X2 (not the Betson ones) will have to wait for the same thing, so maybe when X4 comes out the other may be upgraded then. Machines that are not DDR X or X2 will likely never be upgraded because of the new hardware and the need for the ext-I/O, and both are insanely expensive.

So for all the pre-X machines out there in the US (which is too many), is there no choice but to replace the cabinets altogether? Actually, I would love it if Konami replaced all the old machines in the US (and the horrible X/X2 pads too) with DDR X3 / the next DDR.

At this point they need to offer a trade in program for old 573 cabinets. Every single public DDR machine is in such a state of disrepair that I would never want to play a new mix on them, it would destroy the experience.
Let arcade owners send back the cabinets(or at least the kits) and get credit towards a totally new and well built, this time machine.
Let arcade owners send back the cabinets
^^This times ten. And bring back e-amuse support to go along with it.
One can hope, right?

Ah, so that's what that was...I don't follow the Taiko series like that so I just left that one out since I didn't even know what it was.

So is this "X3 machine" an upgraded EXTREME?
That's what I've heard

So the hardware and exterior is the same as an Extreme?

TELL ME WHAT THIS MEANSI live in metro Detroit and have been going to Youmacon for years and was ecstatic to hear Bemani Invasion was attending. I was bugging the guy in charge of gaming at Youmacon to find a way to get Technika for months, and he pulled through.
If they remain in Detroit for even a short time I will stalk them as hard as I can. NEED MOAR TECHNIKA

EDIT: I asked the guys myself. They leave first thing Monday for Virginia :C

Hmmmm...
I live an hour away from Youmacon.
I'm VERY tempted now to go there for a day. I've been to Youmacon in 2010 & 2011

We will not be staying in Detroit after Youmacon, nor have we announced Tricoro anywhere officially, not sure where OP is collecting his facts from?
Our X3 cab is a Korean cab with all new sensors and countersunk flat screws.
We also have a dual DDR Extreme / In The Groove cab also with new sensors and countersunk screws:

I've heard rumors that the DDR cab will stay in the area, but I could very well be wrong.
