Seeing that this section covers also beatmania 5-keys other than IIDX, and more threads in IIDX are in here than BM 5-keys, I gotta ask: Does anybody in here still care about BM 5-keys? If yes, discuss the games here. If no, delete this thread or let it die a natural death  | |

I enjoy playing 5-key every once in a while. The arcade that's like 2 minutes from my house has Complete Mix 2 so it's a nice stroll down memory lane.
I don't play it at home though, and if I have a choice of whether to play 5-key or IIDX, I'm going to pick IIDX.

What BM songs would you like to be ported to IIDX? Mine are:
any song from ClubMIX
jam jam reggae (with better sound quality and arrangement or a remix)
Luv to me third mix (the one with Japanese vocals) | |

well, the fact that there havent been any new 5k BM games as of recent is the major reason why no one discusses it anymore.
we used to hav a BM Final machine and it seemed like i was the only person in the city who ever played it. now its gone... which totally sux | |

5key soundtrack > IIDX soundtrack, definitely
IMHO

Well all of the 5 key revivals in the recent IIDX CS mixes have their 5 key charts, so once in awhile i'll put my KOC on the 2P controller port and enjoy some original 5key beatmania.
By the way, is the KOC compatible with the original PS1 beatmania mixes? | |

Do you think it would be great if BM had a revival and had most of the IIDX songs ported in there? That's what they did in BM the Final (songs from 1st style and substream got ported) | |

The 5key games were amazing, especially for the music. If I could pick the beatmania series that Konami continued, it would totally be BMIII. | |

You can see my view on 5 key in the profile. I grew up on 5 key, and own what is probably the biggest collection of 5 key stuff around (including 12 of 13 complete 5 key upgrade kits, etc.
That said, there are songs I love in 5-key (overdoser driving dub mix, love's theme to beatmania, emotion romantic mix, quickening, etc). The charts are so different it is fun to play. I also play III and IIDX, but as these games get farther away from 5-key I enjoy 5 key more and more.
No talk about 5-key - no one asked!

5 Key was pretty awesome. Whenever I went to Six Flags I spent at least an hour in the arcade to play HipHopMania Complete Mix 2 (Its the same as beatmania CM2), during every trip. If I knew it was not going to be around after the couple years it was there, I would have played on it more then riding the shitty rides in the park.

On the subject of playing 5-key, the only beatmania machine I know of in the country is an old mini 3rd mix machine, so it's all I've been able to play on actual hardware. I'd love to have a IIDX machine nearby (or even a more recent 5-key machine - one with speed mods, or at least which gives you the name of the track before you've selected it), or to be able to have a go on III, but it's still fun for a few plays when I'm in London. I doubt many people play it, mind, both times I've played on it I've set the top score, though I guess they might turn it off regularly and scores aren't saved anywhere.
I also recently bought the UK release for cheap (because why not?), so I've had a few goes on that, but it has the same issues as 3rd mix. | |
