And lastly, 2003 introduced to both pop'n music and later GUITARFREAKS / drummania [[ee'MALL]], an arcade machine which consists of various little mini-games to play with your [[e-amusement|e-AMUSEMENT]] card. The big incentive to play the game was that it allowed one to unlock new songs and BEMANI crossovers for [[PnM_AC_9|pop'n music 9]]. A sequel later that year, [[ee'MALL 2nd avenue]], allowed one to unlock songs in both [[AC pnm 10|10]] and [[AC_GF10DM9|GUITARFREAKS 10thMIX & drummania 9thMIX]]. ee'MALL continued until 2006, when KONAMI ended the service.

While 2003 saw a bit of slowdown of the BEMANI scene, [[2004]] would see a slightly busier year.
