What's the difference between video games and medal games?

Medal games are the ones that give out tokens in Japan.
It's the equivalent of our coin pusher games. Gambling is banned in Japan that's why they cannot use standard coins.

The BEMANI information for the AOU 2009 says the jubeat machines being exhibited there will be the overseas version, in other words, the US/EU versions.
...wut? Why can't they use their own machines? Idk, but this seems funny to me XD...however, i hope they give a release date (or month) when they have them over there >_>

Maybe they want to give a taste to the Japanese people the machines we'll be getting? To be fair, they have enough jubeat machines to know what their version is like!

So, Japan gets the Japanese version, and the US/EU version, while we only get the US/EU version. Yeah, we're not an important market.Post #8 · Posted at 2009-02-12 08:10:01am 15.2 years ago

The Ad for it sensationalizes them being able to play "exclusive overseas songs", so that's probably why they want to do it.

Nah can't be the Korean machines, we've got actual confirmation from the jubeat STAFF BLOG itself now. them having EU/US versions just seems too weird to me ;/
Bump: AOU2009 business day tomorrow for the press and others to get information. Would advise to check the Japanese game news sites for updates from 1am GMT onwards tonight.

2ch is hinting at the fact UBeat is the exact same version as the NA/EU versions. So no news there for our UBeat unfortunately. Definite confirmation should come tomorrow when the event is open to the public.
Bump: The next version of jubeat is confirmed to be under construction, as announced by KONAMI at AOU2009.
