It is annoying me. I have a $50 gift card for crying out loud.


Weird, I was about to say the same thing.

I'm seeing prices for the bundle fluctuate all over the place, going from $59.99 to $64.99. I remember seeing an article here saying it would be $49.99, but now I can't find any place that has that price. Any reasons for the price jump?

From what I can tell most Best Buys, EB Games and GameStop aren;t carrying the game at all :( At least KH2 will keep me happy till I track down my copy.
::edit:: Here';s the Toys'R'Us store locator for any of you who dont know where one is

My EB Games is recieveing their shipment of 4 Bundles! Stupid UPS didn't bring it yesterday. I waited 3 hours at my EB Games for UPS and when they showed up they didn't have it. Made me so mad.

Just got mine not to long ago at Toy'R'Us, they seemed to have quite a few of them in back in both bundle and game-only forms.

When I went to my Gamestop to pick up my reserved copy they said that some stores weren't getting any more than 1 Beatmania stock per store unless it was reserved / pre-ordered, so check up on that.

Hey has anyone checked to see if the American controller works in a J-PS2 and/or works for the other IIDXs?

Controllers are in no way region specific.
Japanese controllers work on US consoles, and US controllers on Japanese consoles.

Keymapping however...



Is spot on :)


Works with beatmania US, US Konami Controller
and I tested IIDX 4th Style w/ US Konami Controller.

No problems whatsoever.

It seems to me that its very easy. I've AAA'ed two things already. One of them being on Hyper (7k). Yeah. So I think I'll give this game a couple more plays then put in 10th or 9th style.
