If i use the swap magic with the slim, do i have to keep on using the disk over and over everytime i want to play a japanese game? or only once?

If you can swing it, I would recommend you get a DJ Dao controller over at bemaniasc.com because it is nearly indistinguishable from the arcade, and trust me, I play at the arcade a lot. |
I would rather not get a controller that is around 200 dollars if i havent even ever played the game yet.. there is a 60 dollar one made by konami, that a lot of people are telling me is bad. so im not sure what i should do about that.
what would you say is the best controller for someone that is just starting, never played before, and is a price that wont kill me if i dont like the game?

I dont really know that much japanese but i can read some. Are you saying i cant change the speed of the how fast the buttons fall, or i cant make it go into really high speed? because in rhythm games i always change the speed of how fast the buttons(?) fall.
once again thanks for all of your help, and im sorry i keep asking questions i just really want to try this game, and no arcade around me has it. i saw it at an anime convention and i didn't want to try it because the people that were playing it were really good, and i never played before, so i didnt want to hold them up.
