General Information

Release Date: March 15, 2006
Featuring over 50 songs.
Songs are drawn from 5-key and 7-key games, as well as new US exclusives.
Retail price: $49.99 for bundle including controller and game. (source: Orange Lounge Radio)

Game uses the 9th style CS Engine, but has been completely reskinned.
Game modes include Game Mode (probably similar to Arcade Mode), Free Mode, Expert Mode, Practice Mode (not similar to Beginner Mode, but looks more like Lesson Mode in CS DDR games), and Training Mode.
There will be unlocks.
Another difficulties will be available.
Regarding song charts, nothing has been "toned down", but "very minor changes have been made to some of the 'annoying' measures within songs in hyper mode. Another charts haven't been touched."
"Just Great" is now called "Perfect."
Difficulties are listed as "Beginner", "Normal", and "Hyper". Another exists, but may have to be unlocked.
Difficulties are now on a 1-10 scale, using stars. 9 and 10 appear to be reserved for Anothers, since Colors Hyper is rated an 8.
Hard has been renamed to "Challenge", or "CHA" for short.
5-key mode is known as "beatmania" mode, 7-key mode is known as "beatmania IIDX" mode. Konami no longer appears to be removing references to IIDX from videos, etc.
In 5-key mode, Free Scratch Zones have returned. Free Scratch Zones are areas in older songs where you can pretty much scratch as much or as little as you want. However, was extremely difficult to get a Great on a Free Zone. It is not known whether this problem has been corrected in this version.
There will be a replay mode to save replays of songs you have played.
