I don't know if there is already a thread for this..but...here goes.

Is anyone going to be buying the game?

Personally. I'm going to buy the controller, then use it to play my imports.

Right now i play IIDX with a dualshock.

I'm so sorry.

I was going to say the same exact thing.

*laughs* it isn't that bad. I usually play 5keys. It isn't that hard. I can pass mostly everything on 8th style.

You're in for a big change on 7 keys and a real controller. At the very least you might have a leg up on reading the notes.

I'm going to buy Beatmania when it hits the US. However, I wonder if non-Bemani gamers will like the game. My concern is that the game will be too hard for most people to continue beyond a few hours of play.

I have to confess my first 5-key Beatmania 4th Style+Core game sat on the shelf for over a year because I didn't give it enough time to learn the basic motorskills. I found IIDX to be much more rewarding, but it had a difficult learning curve, too.

I hope it does well!

Actually, i've borrowed a controller and I can manage on some of the harder songs on L7.

Oh. Thats hot.

sexy :O

a question came up in my livejournal today, so i'm posting this for those that haven't seen it... i thought this controller pic was already out there a long time ago but maybe i was wrong:

Whoa Emm Gee.
It's not at all different!!!
(except the Left Side Pride corners!)

keys feel slightly different, i'm pretty sure they've worked on the "sticking" problem.
