Konami announced today that they'll be bringing the franchise over for test in the US as "UBeat". The first test is slated to start on September 8th at Boomers in Irvine, CA. 
This thread will be updated as more details arise.

Also i'm very excited about this. Though i will not be able to go to the test b/c i'm in NC and it's all the way across the country. I hope this test goes well and Konami decides to bring it over for officially. The cabnet for it cannot be that expensive. I mean most arcades, and even bars/pubs have those freakin "Megatouch" things, so hopefully, pending a successful test, we'll be able to get it here....in NC....where we are F'd in the A when it comes to anything bemani | |

Please don't turn this into an "American covers are garbage" debate when that is entirely subjective and not even true half of the time.
However, they better keep Scatman in this. | |

i can't think of any reason this would have no american licenses and honestly them being there is a good thing because it helps the game succeed in the market
just don't play them if you don't like them

As for me, I'm only concerned about one thing:
Two words:
Scatman John
Doesn't matter if they remove Honey and Clover or not. Just don't remove Scatman John song

If this game becomes successful, hopefully they'll release it for DS. It would work perfectly, maybe it could be a simplified 3x3 grid instead of 4x4. | |

Dare I say... iPhone/iPod Touch?
Anyways, I live 10 minutes away from Boomers! (freeway not needed) so I'll see if I can make it over there. | |

that would be pretty neat although it'd definitely need to be 3x3 to be playable there, i think
