Is there any specific etiquette I should follow when in a Japanese arcade, say if it's busy or such? I will be in Japan at the end of the year and would like to play some games but I'm not great (8s-9s on IIDX) and want to try Sound Voltex. The only arcade here with rhythm games shut down and it was never busy anyway, so I don't really know what you're meant to do.

>>15260594
In busy places, there are generally very organized lines. You'll figure it out just by seeing where other people are waiting. There's also the common sense to not play multiple credits in a row if there are people around. If you're not sure if someone is in line, step away from the machine for 20 seconds or so to be sure.

Has anyone had experience playing DDR in Japan? I don't have any plans on visiting anytime soon (never have), but I also wonder what the etiquette for that entails, if there's any difference at all.

What is the process of E-Amusement registration? Is it necessary? How open are players to doing versus? Does your skill level make a big difference (I do well on most 13's and 14's, and can pass some 15's and 16's, never gotten a AAA/PFC)?

If anyone's willing to share about their experience, it would be well appreciated.

IIDX is missing stuff like score tracking, a functional step up mode, and expert mode in general and they still run it regardless.
Doubt navigators would be that detrimental to both them or the game.

also, since we constantly talk about arcade data on a public site where every single thread gets archived for public view, are our hands any less clean

The rhythm game community in general is very cliquish and doesn't particularly like new blood. Trying to get into something like Pop'n or Gitadora, for example, is hellish because of how few information resources there are for the game, and most of the Western playerbase have a "figure it out yourself" mentality.

Of course not. The whole point of secret club is show off to the general public and brag what you have something they don't and enjoy your superiority. In other words, the whole point of secret club is being non secret. This thread is exactly for that purpose. Why not talk on the said secret site otherwise, maintaining perfect secrecy? But there is no fun like this, you're not superior than others inside the circle or your peers.

It's such an extremely niche thing though. Imagine going up to some guy on the streets and saying "Nah nah nah nah, I have an account on Bemaniso.ws and you don't. Enjoy not playing sweet ass arcade data from the dopest rhythm games around"

I can image his reaction to be no more than "Go the fuck away" or "What the hell are you even talking about?"

And if it's just to gloat to other rhythm game lovers in this thread then that's just mean. I've been on the outside looking in and I hated it.

11 could easily be split in two different levels.

Some of the harder 11s are on a complete different scale compared to easy stuff like Destiny Sword. Level 10 songs don't have this huge gap

It shouldn't become ridiculous like pop'n (is there even a noticeable difference between a 42 and a 43?) but 15 levels of difficulty seem reasonable. Isn't SDVX like that?

SDVX is the same thing as 2dix though.

Sure, it has more levels but anything below the 'safe' 7s is pretty much throwaway easy shit. The 15s are still fucking retarded with a massive difference in difficulty between lowest and highest tiers. There's 15s I can't imagine failing and then there's 15 I can't imagine passing.

Same shit, different numbers.

Anonymous Sat May 21 00:13:09 2016 No.15265016

>>15264792
SDVX has enough difficulty levels, it's just that everything under level 13 is a cakewalk, everything under level 7 is practically one level, and they should lower the ratings of almost all of the songs to fit them in nicely.

"Safe" songs should be any song 5 and under, which would give us a little more room bring some 14's down to 13/12 and some of those 15's down to 14.

I've not been playing for long but how has it changed? It's always been a goofy DJ-esque prohibitively hard rhythm game that features largely electronic music.

PASELI. Some people were probably disgusted with how PASELI-influenced the games became after tricoro. Locking features like Rival Matching, whole charts, and even the extra stage system behind KONAMI's e-currency system.

>A lot more weeby denpa type shit these days.
It doesn't even take up a notable selection of the song list. At its end, Tricoro had like, what, 3 or 4 denpa songs out of a 100+ list? Only reason people talk about it so much is because it noticeably stands out a lot more due to being...well, denpa.

Probably because I'm not sure what the hell PASELI even is. I assume it's a company that makes some form of subscription based code for games that Konami licensed to put into its games.

a while ago the tax on arcades got raised but since they use 100 yen coins they couldn't just bump it up to 120 yen like we could with quarters

then they made extra stage (and by extension several events and songs) paseli only and put rivals behind an eamuse subscription

They've only done that in Japan, other eamuse regions don't have paseli (and the lockouts and stuff associated with it). Blame the stupid Japanese for taxing fun.

Also the only reason you see paseli lockout stuff at R1 is because their machines are semi-illegally on Japanese eamuse because Konami is dumb and refuses to host a US server.

you need a $3/month subscription to
-modify rivals
-customize note skins, lane covers, explosions, etc
-see weekly and top ranking lists and your played song data on the website

so if you don't care about any of that then you never need to pay for it
rivals and customizations stay without a subscription, so you can also pay for a single month just to set them up

Why are all old Pop'n/IIDX charts on the higher end so terrible?

Did they not play test these god damn things before they finalized the game. Everything is only challenging because it's kludgy, awkward and inorganic.

Old DDR charts weren't terrible. In fact it seems DDR is the exact opposite case. Anything hard now is goofy nonsense jacks and crossovers with dumb speedups.

The raise in tax only happened a couple of years ago. PASELI has been around much longer and before the tax increase, the standard cost was 100 points per credit.

After the tax increase, the 'price' was raised to 120 for pretty much everything, but Konami started adding 'special' features for PASELI users in order to justify the increased price.

I mean stuff like SDVX, where PASELI users can bypass the stupid level locking without needing to do the skill analyser and have more selectable game modes; or Beatstream, which gives (gave?) PASELI users a guaranteed extra stage (so 4 songs in total) provided they passed the regular three stages.

Do you think the world's best golfer is happy about no longer being the best? Do you think Michael Jordan was happy about his 72-10 season being smashed? Of course not.

If you have a ps3/4 controller you could try playing it with that. It's pretty decent, not nearly as good as an ASC, but it's good for trying the game out. I managed to clear a few 15s with it before Dao's controller came out.

How do we go about doing that though? Even if we tell people "hey, play this", IIDX (hell, bemani in general) is far from a widely available game in the states, same with Taiko and every SEGA rhythm game not named Project DIVA. Even if they were available, people might get scared off due to how difficult or expensive the genre can be or they might not even care about getting better to begin with.

Dunno. I mean, I don't know what to suggest. PW was the last time we tried a more aggressive push to bring Bemani to the USA (illegally but never mind that) and look how that ended up. The community was tired of Konami's endless broken promises to bring Bemani to the USA before PW development even began.

Invite more people to The Sekrit Klub but I guess don't invite people who are completely pants on head retarded that are just going to ruin it for everybody else.

What even happened there? DDR was a fairly steady, if still niche thing for years and years.

I'm guessing all the Gutiar Hero Rockband horseshit flooded the market, became a huge fad, and when it died, it took DDR with it.

Also maybe Konami being dicks and suing Roxor into oblivion destroying ITG leaving only a small community of the hyper dedicated.

And maybe shitty Benson cabs instead of the badass widescreen Japanese ones. Those things were legit piles of garbage. I think I played on a SuperNOVA 2, or X, and the pads felt like those cheap Chinese DDRPads you can get off ebay.

Honestly, it's not entirely KONAMI's fault as games like Just Dance and Dance Central came and usurped the casuals from DDR by offering something that's way more "dance" than DDR could ever be with licences that aren't from 6 and a half years ago and all within the comfort of their own homes.

With the generally subpar quality of the last CS iterations compared to AC and the Betson DDRX situation, their hands aren't entirely clean either.

DDR is still a popular as fuck game at conventions. I always reach out to people I see playing who look like they're serious about the game. The existing local community are content to play each other's basements, so most of the semi-casual players don't even realize that a local community still exists.

It's an annoying thing usually associated with ITG players. They dump baby powder on the pads to reduce friction, which makes the pads slippery for everyone else and requires the pads be cleaned about ten times more often. (and if the arcade doesn't know how to properly maintain the machine, the pads will usually get so dirty that they hardly function)

FEFEMZ is the best PIU+DDR player but he also gets some pretty great scores at Pop'n, SDVX, DrumMania, and IIDX.

for western players I guess leonid kind of fits that description, from what I know he's the only western SDVX player to AAA every 15/16, he was also pretty amazing at stepmania a few years, probably the best western pop'n player, and IIRC he was like Insane 3rd dan in BMS.

That is because they put the hardest song in the game in the highest difficulty, which makes sense. Then they release a new game and release a slew of new 15s, most of which are aimed at players who can already beat the previous 15s/16s. So they're significantly harder but they don't increase the difficulty.

Most of the bemani games need a revamped difficulty system (and pop'n needs a condensed difficulty change).

IIDX has like what, 325'ish 12s? That can be stretched to many higher difficulties. I also think the definition of a 16 in sound voltex needs to be brought down a bit and the hardest content should be put in 17, like 80% of the current 16s.

Stepmania goes to whatever (there are people who make those hur durr this is 99)., but legitimately in terms of, "this is playable and harder than the difficulty below it". There are quite a few 18s I know of.

10 feels fair (but extremely challenging) for the average player. 11 starts being overwhelming enough to make any casual go "fuck that".

I think you're putting the bar way too high for "not casual". You have to realize there's plenty of space between "not casual" and "elite player". The 10 way is pretty god damn hard but if you get over it you're definitely no longer a casual. The difference in Pop'n between a 40 and a 45 is staggering. A serious beginner can probably get to 40s well within a month, but getting to that 45 mark is now approaching "elite".

Rereading the post in question, he uses the phrase "rite of passage", so I guess one could interpret it as "rite of passage into elite player status" or "rite of passage out of casual player status". Clearly I chose the latter.

Look for BMShare IIDX on google, you should find a "free" repository.
The links there have the BGAs, but the BMS difficulties and tagging quality vary sometimes. 1st mix up to Sirius only.

Sows also got a public repository. The BMS difficulties are the same all over and it's well tagged, but no BGA. It's got RED up to SPADA.

Stop with this meme. Unless you have basically a wood shop in your garage and all of the wood already, building a controller yourself is both a huge time sink and, while cheaper, not worth it for the few dozen dollars you'd save. Especially if your time isn't worthless.

I spent probably 170-180 dollars on building a pop'n controller, because literally no one already has a 3.5" hole saw lying around, and those are 20-25 bucks. The wood was 20 or 30, the buttons were almost 100, and the board was 20. And don't forget paint if you don't want it top look like shit. Giant pain in my ass.

Also bought replacement Omrons but that was optional.

This sounds retarded, but hey, maybe you didn't have a drill and no way to buy one second hand?

>because literally no one already has a 3.5" hole saw lying around, and those are 20-25 bucks.
Oh, nope, you're just fucking braindead. Even my cheap Chinese buttons came with cases, dude, and if you know anything about measurements you'd realise that you're saving about a single mm off the total height by not using them and a ~35mm drill bit that can be bought in a set with other spade bits for less than 5 dollars.

>The wood was 20 or 30,
Fair enough, if it's precut, which saves some hassle if you don't own a tablesaw.

>the buttons were almost 100,
Here's where you start getting a bit retarded, given chinks charge about 40-50 dollars for them. But I was talking about SDVX, which naturally has smaller buttons which are far cheaper.

>and the board was 20.
Try 10.

>And don't forget paint if you don't want it top look like shit.
You don't like plywood? A varnish costs a dollar or two.

>Giant pain in my ass.
It's an hour of planning and maybe 2 hours work if you've never done it before, for a saving of around 200-300 dollars. If you're planning on building a couple of controllers, you save even more.

What the fuck are you talking about? Clearly you used far different buttons, because the ones that were actually true to the Pop'n arcade buttons require a 3.5" hole saw. Every pop'n guide on the internet uses 3.5" hole saws.

And you can buy boards for 10, but the ones with enough inputs for Pop'n and that supported LEDs were 20.

>Saving 200-300

Well don't buy the fucking solid gold controllers then. You'd save 50 bucks max.

And by the way, those BT buttons cost 20 dollars each, so for 50 dollars you could have a wooden box with two buttons and no encoders.

The actual buttons are 300+ bucks a set. All of the clone buttons use a far simpler form factor that includes a button holder, so I'm very sorry you paid twice as much and didn't even get the fucking covers. You're much better off just using them and using a much smaller drill bit, because it doesn't impact the height of the controller at all, and actually saves a bit of weight because your sides don't need to be a cm or so taller. The image is an example, notice the separate black ring around the sides of the button?

>but the ones with enough inputs for Pop'n and that supported LEDs were 20.
It's trivial to hook up some LEDs to power pin if you care more about looks than function, but I guess you just wanted to spend an extra 10 bucks.

>Well don't buy the fucking solid gold controllers then. You'd save 50 bucks max.
I'm talking the basic fucking entry level DAOs, here. If you're not retarded enough to spend over a hundred dollars on a controller, then the savings are massive. Do you not understand how much the shipping is on these monsters?

Your buttons are jutting out like half an inch? That "cover" is there to hold the button on from the other side of the wood. Like those plastic rectangle bits on the Dao IIDX controllers.

If you want you buttons nice and flush with the controller you need a 3.5" hole saw.

I'm thinking we have far different philosophical views of what DIY is for. You seem to think it's entirely about making something comparable for as cheap as humanly possible. In my case, DIY, while can save some money, is more about trying to make something as nice and as high quality and you can.

I bought very nice MDF when I could have used plywood.
I bought a hole saw when what you did could technically work.
I bought pic related so my controller could be easily connected and disconnected.
I painted and lacquered it when I probably didn't need to because it was MDF.

You might have a point on the board. I basically bought the first thing I saw, but eh. It's 10 bucks.

Point is. I'm not fucking retarded. I built a nice controller as I saw fit and spent exactly what I needed to to get it done the way I wanted.

And even after all this, I still saved 60-70 dollars. If the Pop'n controller was in the Dao US storehouse I might've bought it, but I partly wanted to do this project.

Yeah, because I understand ergonomics. There's no meaning to having the buttons "flush" (when they're not because they still stick out a decent 5mm or so), because you don't rest your fucking hands on the controller. This is Pop'n, nigga, and using the fucking button holders for their intended purpose instead of what you think they're used for both saves on weight, cost and effort.
>You seem to think it's entirely about making something comparable for as cheap as humanly possible.
No, my philosophy is arcade specs for a reasonable price. I'll pay an extra couple of bucks for nicer springs and switches, I won't pay 30 dollars a button for a 10% improvement in feel and buy some paint for something I'm not even going to be looking at. Something looking nicer doesn't make it any better. I do like your removable cord though, if I was to do this shit again I'd probably hook something like that up, but it's only a couple of extra dollars.

You got ripped the fuck off on your buttons, so really you should have saved about 100-150 dollars, which is well worth the time investment.

Well, I was going to leave this shit as it was before this post and just walk away, but you've pissed me off.

>using the fucking button holders for their intended purpose instead of what you think they're used for

Right here, this fucking little condescending quip.You motherfucker, I was trying my damnedest to be nice before but nope, not now. You fucking built your controller wrong. You built it wrong to save a few fucking bucks.

Take a good long gander at an actual Pop'n cabinet. Notice the bottons' black surrounding ring and how they taper down and are nice and flush to the machine. Those black plastic rings are called holders because they held them on the wood from behind.

>my philosophy is arcade specs for a reasonable price

Well, you fucking failed. The only thing that could possibly be arcade spec about your goofy abomination of a controller is the color of the buttons, which at this point I wouldn't be surprised if you told me they were all the same color because that color was the cheapest and you saved a grand total of $1.14.

There honestly must be something deeply wrong with you if you can do something wrong and then arrogantly bloviate on the internet about how any other way is clearly wrong. Everything you ever do is correct and if something goes wrong it must be the fault of something or somebody else. I can't even wrap my brain around this mindset.

Also, you must have done this a while ago, because literally nowhere can one find a set of Pop'n buttons for 57 dollars. Not ebay, not Aliexpress, not Alibaba (unless you want to buy 1000). Even if there was some magical back alley site where you could, so what. I spent a few more dollars, but at least I got to use a site I was comfortable with. And at least I built my controller right.

tl;dr: eat shit.

And you built yours "wrong" because you didn't use sanwa buttons mounted at AC height to a cabinet, with a dedicated IC for attract mode lighting and the correct patterning around the buttons.

The height of the buttons in relation to the controller is purely aesthetic. You don't rest your fucking hands in the gaps between the buttons, nor do you place your palms against the sides for relaxed playing. Your hands stay up in the air, only coming down to make contact with a button. Were there any tactical advantage to having the buttons mounted flush, I might agree with your assessment, but you're clearly just trying to justify wasting 25 bucks on a single drill-bit.

You wouldn't happen to have a link or anything, would you? The site I found all the skins you mentioned on didn't have transcendence at all, let alone with some guy's edit. I've been using Ultralight and I really enjoy the addition of letter ratings next to songs.

I've never had that happen with rhythm games, but it happens to my left arm when typing. I type around 140wpm (149wpm best speed) and if I ever try to marathon typing tests I start to get pain in my left arm. Most of my typing is with my left and I'm trying to move as fast as I can. I guess in the case of rhythm games, you're either playing too hard of a song, too much in a row, or you're using extra speed/movement in your arm that's probably not necessary. Might also be posture. Sorry, I'm not an expert.

Play like an entire 4 songs set, then rest for 30 minutes then play another set.

Then slowly cut some minutes off your rest time and slowly raise the amount of songs you play between sets. Worked for me and I can play more than 10 high level songs in sequence without getting tired or feeling pain.

IIDX is keysounded and has a fuckton of audio delay to boot, so timing well on speed changes can be a difficult skill to acquire. In DDR, for example, the game can easily be played strictly by audio, and the note colors describe the rhythms. Speed changes in pop'n somehow don't feel nearly as bad as they do in IIDX. Maybe because there is less audio latency and COOL is larger than PGREAT.

I thought arcade is the desirable model for timing, and CS is the closest thing you can get to an arcade.

and I'm not in the position to talk about timing since my best scores are only AAs on 7s/8s on both infinitas and arcade. but desu infinitas feels better than data, and I don't know if this means anything but I do leave infinitas timing at +0.0 and my fasts and slows numbers are pretty even

http://parallaxplay.com/djmax-portable-returns-for-an-encore-on-nintendo-3ds/

>In a surprise reveal this week, Rising Star Games had an unannounced game being shown as part of their booth in the London MCM Comic Con, DJMax Encore for the Nintendo 3DS. As the title suggests, Encore is a return to the original DJMax Portable series for the Sony PSP which launched almost a decade ago (but never officially saw a release in Europe).
>If you’re unfamiliar with the series, the main DJMax games have you pressing buttons in time with the beat across dozens of songs (similar to most rhythm games). Details are currently light on the game’s full content prior to the official public announcement, but early signs from checking out the playable build indicate it may be based on DJMax Portable 2 / DJMax Portable Hot Tunes going by the menu and interface design. The reveal is also an unexpected surprise since another game featuring the songs from the DJMax Portable series, DJMax Respect for PS4 was only announced a few weeks ago! Encore being on the 3DS should hopefully help to bring DJMax to even more rhythm game fans.

Do you have no experience with music games? That's super low. What gives you trouble? Are you not used to the controls?

Level 8 will most likely be the first big wall for you, since I think that's when the game goes from "beginner" to "normal"

You've been playing too long, I'd say 5/6 is the first wall, especially if you don't know how to position your fingers comfortably yet.

I've played DDR, stepmania spread and ITG a shit tonne. I also played guitar hero a bunch as a young child.

The main problem I'm having is finding what visual notes correlate to where I should press on the keyboard (yes, I'm playing keyboard for now).

The only thing I'll give piano is it might have a higher skill ceiling.

Everything else like learning curve, frustration, required precision, etc. probably goes to IIDX. I'd sure as shit rather deal with 81 more keys than that god forsaken turn table.

An audience full of humans isn't going to know that a not was off by 3 ms. A IIDX machine will.

Hell, I bet concert level pianists are getting Goods and Greats all day long. Bet they don't even hit 75% DP.

I think I might have lost my mind

Piano has something (of many things) IIDX doesn't have: How hard/soft you hits your notes.

Some mellow songs require soft presses and sometimes hard presses to make it louder and more dramatic. Just imagine that shit on IIDX on top of everything else. It'd be a nitghtmare.

You can hit all the notes right for a song and it'll sound like shit because you didn't get the right feeling for it.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 29 22:05:14 2016 No.15313746 Anyone know a person in the US that takes comission to build a Pop'n Music controller? Buying it from DJDao is too expensive due to the shipping cost.
