:First Game: [[PnM CS 1|pop'n music CS]]
:A level of difficulty higher than NORMAL, but less than EX. They are highlighted in yellow on most games' music select screens. Songs in this level range between 10 to the high 30's. (The highest to date is [[Concertare]], a 48.) Originally a CS exclusive level of play, HYPER charts weren't introduced in the arcade until [[PnM_AC_3|pop'n music 3]], and even then they were only playable in HYPER mode (a course consisting of HYPER-only notecharts). HYPER notecharts became available for normal arcade play in [[PnM_AC_4|pop'n music 4]]. Since [[PnM_AC_6|pop'n music 6]], all new AC/CS songs (except for a few licenses in [[PnM_AC_10|pop'n music 10]]) have had HYPER charts.
