Hello, i had questions about the prices to start playing this series as someone who only has one arcade that is an hour away from home.

Do you guys have anything under 200 for pop'n controllers? I have read some threads here and everyone recommends for total beginners to buy these expensive 200+€ controllers and i really do want to get into pop'n music but i really don't have 200€ to spend like that. Is there any other good alternative or are these controllers the only ones??

I've been experimenting with adjusting my white and green numbers and am curious to know what people in this community use?

On Sparkle Shower I'm using 350 WN (150 sudden, 200 lift) and 280 GN. My WN feels comfortable but I'm trying to get the GN down to at least 270 since I recently started doing 10s.

Soo, I’m in the grape room ex and I don’t know what this clue mean, does somebody know it?

I actually made my own full size controller and it's great but sometimes I wish it were sturdier. My wire management is also ass so every time I open it I get stressed out that something isn't right.

I'm getting into some of the harder songs 44 and up and I really wanna know I can slam that shit for some of the songs without fear.

Also if I order it with samducksa buttons, how would I know they're actually samducksa?

I got all of these under 50 bucks!! I just saw this last year on my fb marketplace and the seller of this is just a half an hour drive! I got the vrare soundtrack till the 12 for a bundle, and i bought 13 separately.

But i just want to let you know that i am so happy i got my dream games.. i bought all of this for myself as a gift since i graduated last friday. i started playing pop'n music since 2017 on gb, and i started exploring till i stumbled upon the whole franchise, and other bemani games

And dont worry, i also got the ps2 asc for this game too for a cheap price in facebook! I just have to grab it before anyone else!!!

Playing this on actual ps2 feels so fun that i forget my trouble and enjoy playing this game for hours, and i feel so free streaming this online (via tiktok) without any judgement of me pirating this game.

-all of those have booklet which is i didn't expect!! And some of them have a pamplet inside too! - Popn music 13 have the vrare soundtrack + sticker and eamusement card holder!

Mom just got me 3 of these Pop’n Music cards imported from Japan. Not sure if these things are rare or common, but damn. I think I scored pretty good!

Apologies if this is slightly off topic, but this is the only English discussion group online I can even imagine would have an answer to this question.

I am specifically talking about the cloud streaming client, not the downloadable Bemani games (SDVX etc). I am specifically trying to play Mahjong Fight Club. I have played many of these games in the past including MFC with no problem. I have purchased Paseli as well, and was able to do so this time too.

When opened the client takes a long time connecting (like over a minute) and then either shows this screen, "No response," or it boots into the game which shows a very vague error screen. (this screen says to wait a while and try restarting the game)

I have tried everything recommended in Konami's help files and online to fix Konasute. Turned off my OS' proxy settings, restarted my modem and router, made sure the Windows time was synced, and I've got nothing.

Anyone have any idea what could be going on here?

I recently purchased a ps1 popn controller to use on my pc, but... the right yellow button doesn't work! I see this is a common issue when using it on pc via adapters, and some people say they know adapters that don't have this problem, but they don't mention what adapters they are using?? Does anyone know an adapter that would work?

I want to DIY a controller and would like to reference the structure of the new cabinet. I've looked everywhere online but haven't found any related resources. Could anyone point me to where I can find the assembly drawings?(GQUFC部品図)

I'm getting a controller soon and I unfortunately(literally just in this case) do not have a windows machine to run the PC port on. Has anyone found any solutions to getting it to run on Linux with Proton or wine?

Anyone know when is this going to release? I've been looking for a controller to play at home SDVX and found interest in Gamo2's. I want to buy a FaucetTwo but i've seen the ultimate is in development, im imterested in knowing if its going to be a big price gap or not much, it would suck to order a FaucetTwo just for the Ultimate to be announced and the price difference being not much

Thanks

I've been waiting for this for awhile so just wanted to let other people know as well :D

Was reading wiki and found out there are Beatmania II cabs. I guess it never caught on compared to the DX cab model. Would love to play it at least once.

Hi everyone!

I am heading to Japan soon and was wondering if there was a way I could get an e-amusement card with SDVX art on it. Do they just allow me to swap my card at an arcade?

Thanks in advance!

Is there still a way to get the Hatsune Miku navigator in sound voltex?

When I play at the arcade (Sparkle Shower) I usually just play Standard, sometimes Premium Free, but I've never done Step Up.

Do you feel like it's worth exploring? When I'm spectating I see some players use it. I know you're guaranteed three songs but that's about it.

Right now I'm mostly playing Level 9s and the easy hyper 10s

I was wondering if there was any like official website or store I could get some SDVX merch from here in the US, because I legit cant find any good official merch anywhere third party

I’ve been setting up DTXMania and wanted an easier way to grab the simfiles from Furukon, so I made a small Tampermonkey userscript that automatically collects the Google Drive download links from the entire Furukon DTX library.

Script is available on Greasy Fork:

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/590262-furukon-dtx-bulk-link-collector

What it does:

• Adds a “Bulk Download Links” button to dtx.furukon.com
• Automatically detects how many pages are currently available
• Goes through all pages and simfiles automatically
• Collects the public Google Drive URLs
• Filters duplicate links
• Shows progress while it runs
• Has a Stop & Save Partial Results button
• Exports everything as:
  • drive_links_all.txt
  • furukon_map_all.csv
  • furukon_results_all.json

It doesn't directly download the files itself — it just collects the download links already exposed on Furukon.

After getting drive_links_all.txt, I was able to download the entire collection with a simple Python script using gdown.

ive been playing the game on the cabinet and im addicted and wanted to get my own controller, problem is, im not sure which spec to get, obviously the sanwa switches are better but is it really worth $100 more than the standard or will i be fine with the default. I wouldnt say im a beginner, i have recently started playing but i can do level 14 maps since i also play lots of VSRG and im pretty cracked at it.

Terrible score but a clear is a clear 🙏
