Unfortunately, 2017 also marked the end of the [[BeatStream Information|BeatStream]] series. Unlike the [[DanceEvolution Information|DanceEvolution]] and ''ミライダガッキ FutureTomTom'' series, no offline patch was released for [[AC BST AnimTribe|BeatStream アニムトライヴ]], and the series went offline permanently on September 1st. Instead, KONAMI offered arcade operators a conversion kit to change their BeatStream machines to ノスタルジア ones. | Unfortunately, 2017 also marked the end of the [[BeatStream Information|BeatStream]] series.

To add more sad news, in spring 2017, KONAMI removed ''all'' of the artist pages from the BEMANI Fan Page website, and also dropped the long-standing [[beatnation Records]] name that had been in use since 2006. In fall 2017, KONAMI also started listing its in-house BEMANI staff as '''BEMANI Sound Team''', and for a few weeks in pop'n music even went so far as to uncredit in-house songs completely. Nearly all BEMANI songs done in-house since fall 2017 feature the BEMANI Sound Team name in front of the artist name. | To add more sad news, in August 2017, location tests of [[AC CANNON BALLERS|beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS]] are cancelled due to security purposes, making it the first beatmania IIDX location test to be prematurely stopped, and in spring 2017, KONAMI removed ''all'' of the artist pages from the BEMANI Fan Page website, and also dropped the long-standing [[beatnation Records]] name that had been in use since 2006.

However, it also left far more lasting effects in the series than just an added moniker in front of in-house artist names, which can be viewed on the [[BEMANI Sound Team]] page. | However, it also left far more lasting effects in the series than just an added moniker in front of in-house artist names, which can be viewed on the [[BEMANI Sound Team]] page. |
