Pop'n Music 8 was announced by Konami at the Best Hits party yesterday.

8's Soundtrack > ANYTHING

ESPECIALLY SEX.

So who all is entering the Best Hits IR?

I'm stuck to playing on a Dual Shock (until I can figure out a suitable config for my IIDX controller), so you can find me on the 5-line rankings along with a couple other US types.

I'll be joining the IR, or at least trying to on 5 button and 9 button.

oh and remy, in case you didn't know, the keys for a IIDX controller map like this:

[L1] [R1] [L2]

[SQ] [X] [O] [<-]

hope that helps you.

Woah, I've been kind of neglecting PnM for a while. And now there's PnM 8 on the horizon? Cool.

I just put in few games today and realized I can now beat songs on Hyper. So I tried out some PnM 6 Expert Courses and unlocked a buttload of songs I didn't even know were on PnM 6!

Coquettish or something and Anime Hero R stand out as good. Horror is actually pretty cool too.

YES YES OH YES

My Pop'n Best Hits came in today, and I'm expecting my 7 to come in sometime next week.

And until my AC controller comes in...I'm playing upside-down, each scratch direction=one white pop-kun, IIDX controller style

Hey, for anyone who ordered PnM Best Hits. Is it worth an investment? I looked over the song list, and well...about 70% percent of those songs I've got on PnM 6 and 7.

The only thing interesting me in it are the 5 licensed tunes, and the new consumer tracks. As well as those hidden ones, PnM is oh-so-known for.

Fluxx: Get a small controller, it'll hold you over until the big one arrives.

Clay: Yes. Just for Invisible Lover and Galaxy Forest 11.6&12. Amazing stuff.

Ok, I got my Pop'n Arcade Style Controller and wow, this thing is awesome.

The buttons even make a click sound when you push them. The buttons DO NOT LIGHT UP though. Playing pop'n on this is way better than the small konami pop'n controller and much much better than using a DS2(or a IIDX controller

)

So anyway, i took a few pics of it along with size comparisons to other things.
See pics here: http://smbu.netfirms.com/images/popn.html

Pic 1) Pop'n ASC by itself
Pic 2) Pop'n ASC on top of my IIDX ASC for size comparison
Pic 3) My JPS2 on top of the Pop'n ASC
Pic 4) Pop'n 7 box on top of Pop'n ASC
Pic 5) IIDX ASC next to Pop'n ASC for size comparison
Pic 6) The extra stuff that came with my controller. A Pop'n Music Mousepad and 6 pop'n buttons.
Pic 7) Side shot of Pop'n ASC to see the thickness.(IIDX ASC also partially in shot for comparison)

If anybody wants me to email them the original pic(s)(1600x1200 ~750KB each) just let me know in a pm or something. Oh, and if somebody wants to me take a comparison pic between something else(like the normal iidx controller or a kbm keyboard

LMK). I don't have the regular Pop'n controller so i'll have to wait until i go to SuPa's house to take that comparison pic.

I won my PnM ASC on Rinkya!!! It was only 285 or so before Rinkya's fees, but with all of the fees(except shipping to the US) it is about 350. It will ship in a couple of weeks with my Beatmania Pocket: Summer Mix. I guess I will keep playing on the tiny PnM controller for now.

I passed my first EX just a couple of days ago!!!
