KONAMI Arcade Championship: Difference between revisions

Majority of the rules and competition format in the 7th KAC (including the Semi-final and the Champion exemption) were intact with the inclusion of the Recital category for the ノスタルジア division and DANCERUSH participating the tournament for the first time. The 8th KAC marked the last time 天下一音ゲ祭 was held during the finals concurrently due to the cancellation later that year. The jubeat category for both divisions are now included in the Semi-final rounds as well.

The Qualifying round has [[Catch Our Fire!]] as the joint qualifier song (with DANCERUSH STARDOM being [[[[Catch Our Fire! (STARDOM REMIX)|remixed]]), while three divisions received new songs as well: [[First Time]] (DanceDanceRevolution), [[KILL EACH OTHER]] (beatmania IIDX), [[Love 2 Shuffle]] and [[Shiva]] (DANCERUSH). The finals unveiled six songs, all during the second day of the final round, with three for ノスタルジア ([[Maou|魔王]], [[Paganini ni yoru dairenshuukyoku dai 6 ban "Shudai to hensou"|パガニーニによる大練習曲第6番「主題と変奏」]] and [[Virkato no shudai ni yoru person09 fuu chouzetsu gikou hensoukyoku|virkatoの主題によるperson09風超絶技巧変奏曲]]), two for SOUND VOLTEX ([[Embryo|ΣmbryØ]] and [[*Feels Seasickness...*]]) and one for (both divisions of) pop'n music ([[Nishimagome koutsuu kyoku|西馬込交通曲]]). Including the two songs in the FLOOR contest, 26 songs were accepted in total including eight awarded songs (four Prize, two Excellence and two Highest Excellence).
