The "Official" Pop'n Music Thread

After 3 weeks of shipping delays....My Desktop Arcade ASC has finally been shipped. It should be here by Tuesday.

In other news, I have discovered that playing Pop'n music with a dual shock, sucks balls, big fat hairy balls.

I can't wait to try out an ASC.

Sup Uiru.

If you're playing on 9, there's a little bit of a disparity between the different levels. Also, if you play one song (like Rock Guitar) over and over and eventually pass it, that doesn't pull up your skill level across the board - only for that one song. I had the same issue with Curry and level 40's back in May. (Still can't beat some 40's. >_<)

Also, Energy Rock sucks còck.

questions about 10...is there any way to unlock songs other than compleeting that gay buttocks japanese sentance thing? any way atall?

oh and when i got the game it came with some sort of....magnetic card...it has the symbol for pop'n 12 on it...any explitanion?

also is there any way that i can change the settings on the game to make the song selection play the songs in the song selection mode? instead of that continuous song playing and sometimes annoying me?

i know this is a looooong shot..but are their any pop'n machienes in the midwest....upper midwest..?

This is a question to all the senyou controller owners out there: Are they actually any good, or are they too small and are only good for kids? I only ask because it's only 2000 yen more than the price of the game itself.

When I first wanted to play I heard there was an arcade-size controller and refused to buy any games until I got that first (soooooooooo sweeeeeeeeeet!!!) but it takes up A LOT of space in the tiny apartment!

Does anyone know of any gameshark codes to unlock all songs on pop'n music 10? I did a quick search but found nothing.

I just want the unlock codes for Pop'n 10, not the gameshark ones, but the ones that you enter on the main screen.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just read a couple of posts up, they don't matter anyway for long term use.

Hi to all,
I've recently started playing some p'nm titles on ps2. The question is: does the default difficulty setting (2 for all of them, if I'm not wrong) match the arcade one?
I'm asking because I remember the psx titles were much more unforgiving, a few consecutive misses being actually enough to deplete the life bar; on the ps2 however, the life bar seems very quick to fill and slow to empty. I would say the game is much easier, overall.
So, since I've never seen any pnm arcade machine, which is the setting that best matches it?

Yeah boii

! My copy of the Pop n' Music 10 control set came in the mail today (I expected here the following Tuesday) and DDR Extreme JP! I'mma put more play time into Pop n' Music more than DDR since I'm a total n00b on this game. I saw this game alot when I was in Japan but never played it (that goes to Guitarfreaks/Drummania!). The game's is very appealing with all it's whimsical music on the front end and so kawaii you-wanna-gouge-your-eyes-out characters. And the in game music? Excellent! I never would've thought I'd hear/play the Goonies theme, Cutey Honey, or Seint Seiya! I can't wait to get off of work so I can unlock some more songs (from what I hear, can only be done by completing those Japanese sentences, ugh I hate Kanji!

! Thank you, Toys N' Joys!

Hey CatchyPhraseOwen!

Tried that new Pop 'N Music 12th style game at AI last Saturday night. That game ROCKS! Especially that Japanese girl playing the Extreme modes like it was nothing! No wonder why Ryan2dx gets a kick about playing that game! Is that a trip or what? Please reply, over! Thanks!

I am looking to buy Pop'n. I was wondering how hard it is. Also, I was also wondering where the cheapest possible place to buy it is. This may also be off topic, but I also would have to buy a mod chip for my PS2. Is there any way of making it able to play japanese games without altering it?

..........im a beginner and it seemed to me like pop'n started out extremely easy and then got extreamly hard....going from normal regularly and passing, to playing hyper regularly and passing is fairly difficult. i also noticed that the number ratings arent as reliable as most think....i can pass seshuin punk but i cant pass the 20 songs or so (i dont remember the exact number) before it.
