beatmaniaIIDX 卑弥呼(A) DOLCE 【EMPRESS】

[RyuHirakashi1]

What I find amusing is that if anyone accomplishes anything amazing in video gaming, you have all these people that say "it's just a game". Video gaming is a breeding ground for amazing accomplishments if the game allows for it. Not every genre can be called "challenging". Games like beatmania are quite rare in the video gaming industry. Now-a-days it's too easy to cheat your way to victory. Music games are that rare exception to this phenomena.

[RyuHirakashi1]

I don't think that being an anime fan would automatically qualify you for playing these games. Komami's bemani series outside of DDR as always been for enthusiasts. As is most certainly IIDX and pop'n music. Most americans don't have the mindset needed to enjoy these games.

[abbytion]

@RyuHirakashi1 most americans want to be good at a game after 1-2 days of playing it

[BetterJS]

@abbytion That's bullshit. I think if anything it has to do with the majority of Americans music sensibilities aren't found in beatmania. Various Techno and J-Pop, the majority of beatmania, is not what most US peeps are exposed to/like. That's why guitar hero did good; because it had something familiar (rock) with -well known- artists. Thats also why GH failed, they ran out of songs everyone liked. If that was all beatmania had, it would do much better. But then it would suck, so its all good.

[NicolXIX]

Why can't Konami sue Activision for ripping off all their games and just win a huge lawsuit and then spend the money on promoting these REAL music games in the western world?

[atreyu25]

@NicolXIX

for the first part, they can't. Guitar hero is 5 buttons, guitar freaks is 3. Drummania is different than guitar hero drums. Dj hero is nothing like beatmania, asside from the turntable. so they cant.

and for the second part, konami has tried but they messed up trying. Remember beatmania (in the usa)?

[NicolXIX]

@atreyu25 Yeah, beatmania US was weak, but at least it came with a decent controller at a very cheap price, I use one of those controllers myself (for the japanese game versions).

You might be right about the technical aspects behind why they can't sue them, but it still seems like it could be proven that activisions games were rip-offs in court.

I also recall something about MTV owning the rights to all music/rhythm games in the US which caused a problem for Konami.

[atreyu25]

@NicolXIX

They can't sue them for being ripoffs. Then that would be terrible because the only FPS we will have in the world is Maze War and the only rhythm game we would have is Dance Aerobics. DDR wouldn't be in existence.

The reason Konami doesn't produce rhythm games in the US (besides DDR) was because the rhythm games they make aren't that popular, not because of MTV. Aside from rhythm game freaks and anime fans, the game wont sell. Mass producing them would cost more than they'd make.

[ateopeixeespada]

Himiko? Fuck that shit!

[atreyu25]

@ateopeixeespada  PABST BLUE RIBBON

[animemental1]

I want to see this guy play the black chart.

[Matchless138]

They have this here in Hawaii... and its fucking hard, but you'll get used to it.

[masarusand]

IIDX史上、最も難しい曲をここまでとは...

ドルがクリア出来ない曲ってのは無いのだろうか...

目指せ1曲3000ノーツ！

（卑弥呼は約2180ノーツ）

[yuki14147891468]

beatmaniaよりこの卑弥呼自体に興味が湧いた。

[BlindShadowX]

Unbelievable

Great Job!

[beximus]

Im convinced that japan has succeeded in creating androids and are using Beatmania as testing material.

[laos159]

BEATMANIA!! > guitar hero

[malamezo]

CRAZY

[iMeRai]

watching this nearly made me twitch :P

[TheRevolutionPlayer]

@freecomkcf and imagine you can't see notes like in DJMAX Trilogy with BLIND

[BoboTheImp]

It does, and it's not that many more notes than the [A] chart because it's nearing the human limit lol.

[roterroggen]

please write books for comercials ^^

[carfoz]

Beatmania is such a cool game, such a pitty that in Europe everyone thinks DJ Hero is oringal... They do not know the REAL deal ;0

[dubconcrete]

@carfoz here in North America it's the worst! if they ever saw GuitarFreaks or DrumMania they would immediately yell "ripoff! guitar hero did it first!"

wait a sec how come Konami didn't sue Harmonix, Activision and EA?

[MizukiTHPS]

@dubconcrete they did...

[TnalX22]

Konami probably dosn't want to start something they could lose (seeing as Activision is relentless).

Besides, they have Japan, they don't need the USA or any European country.

[theprophetstryder]

@carfoz i agree

i was genuinely appauled when i played Dj Hero, why the hell do we get dumbed down japanese variants here, arrrrrgh.

I would love it for BM IIDX 10 and up to be released over here :<

[ghostfire1234]

@theprophetstryder

because the western world likes to bash on what asia makes.

[UltimaReaper87]

@carfoz DJ hero aint got shit on IIDX

[sibbie1023]

@carfoz because dj hero is incredibly similar to IIDX.... oh wait no it's almost 100% diffrent my bad.

[mwkmn]

@freecomkcf

[incofstupid]

aghhh...my eyes.lol.

[kakeruu]

すげぇ＾＾

[penpal108]

Does anyone ever AAA'd this song before?

[CStarFlare]

Yes

[otaku1313]

Yes, it's been AAAd by a non-Japanese player as well.

[KaworuKunIsMyLuvr]

dolce doesnt play one-handed, retard

[VerbelX]

i never said he played one-handed now did i

[CStarFlare]

it's implied because lisu was famous for playing one handed, not for being the best player

I guess a better comparison would be the new AGO9 or SILV?

[moshune]

ニコ動ですねｗｗ判りますｗ

[kakusei4000]

Beatmania slow down arent pretty huh?

[brian10940]
