= pop'n music 8 =
* First game to have a main theme that ties in to the layout of the whole game. In this case, it's springtime.
[[image:pop'n music 8 logo.png]]
* First appearance of BEAT modifier, which makes the keys looks like the ones from the ''beatmania'' series.
* First appearance of SUDDEN modifier, in which the popkuns don't show up until right before you have to hit them.
* First game to allow you to change sorting of songs (AC songs, old songs, etc.).
* First game with a HELL course made up entirely of EXs, which has become the norm since.
* First extensive use of ''Bemani'' crossovers. Up until now, only ''beatmania IIDX'' and [[Pop'n Stage]] songs got ported over to the ''Pop'n Music'' series, for the most part.
* First appearance of [[Naoki Maeda]] of ''Dance Dance Revolution'' fame.
* First appearance of a [[BeForU]] member in the series. The song was Love Love Sugar, sung by [[Noria]], composed by [[Takayuki Ishikawa]] (the exclusive composer of standalone [[Noria]] songs, at least prior to [[PnM_AC_14|Pop'n Music 14 Fever]]).
* ''Pop'n Music'' mainstays [[Kume Yuki]] (Q-Mex), [[Hiroki Koga]] (Naya-n), [[Ueko Harumi]] (Jimmy Weckl), and [[Reo Nagumo]] did not write any new songs for this game.
* Last appearance of [[Sugimoto Kiyotaka]] until [[PnM_AC_12|Pop'n Music 12 Iroha]].
* Total number of songs: 122

** [[pop'n music 8 AC & CS pop'n music 6|pop'n music 8 AC ♥ CS pop'n music 6]]: August 22nd, 2002.


* Director: Hajime Saito
== General Information / Changes ==
* Programmer: TAMA
* First pop'n music game to have a main theme that ties in to the layout of the whole game. In this case, it's springtime.
* Sound Director: [[Jun Wakita]]
* First pop'n music game with the BEAT modifier, which makes the keys looks like the ones from the [[beatmania Information|beatmania]] series.
* CG Designer / Character Designer: tera, shio, mikosiba, chobi ( ちょび。), shiro, cihiro ( ちひろ ),  
* First pop'n music arcade game with the SUDDEN modifier, in which the popkuns don't show up until right before you have to hit them.
* Graphic Dsigner: shima Q
* First pop'n music game in Challenge Mode in which you pick your ojamas ''after'' you choose your song, as opposed to before. This has since been consistent in the franchise.
* First pop'n music game with a HELL course made up entirely of EXs.
* First pop'n music game with extensive usage of BEMANI crossovers. Up until now, only [[beatmania Information|beatmania]] and [[pop'n stage Information|pop'n stage]] songs got ported over to the pop'n music series, for the most part.
** Only the pop'n stage songs have their artists credited. The reason for this is unknown.
* First arcade pop'n music game since [[AC pnm 3|pop'n music 3]] to have master recording licenses, as opposed to only covers like the last two games' sets of licenses.
* Last pop'n music game to limit songs exclusively to stage number in NORMAL MODE.
* Battle Mode upgraded with HYPER charts. Songs from [[AC pnm 6|pop'n music 6]] and [[AC pnm 7|pop'n music 7]] have their old charts moved to HYPER difficulty, while newer, simpler ones are used for NORMAL difficulty.
* On the [https://web.archive.org/web/20150507105245/http://www.konami.jp/bemani/popn/music8/qa/07.html pop'n music 8 Q&A] (archived), sound director [[Jun Wakita|wac]] broke down the percentage of charts made by the staff members for pop'n music 8:
** wac: 36%
** [[Kiyoshi Murai|Seiya Murai]]: 15%
** [[Tomoyuki Uchida|ucchie]]: 15%
** [[Junko Karashima|pure]]: 8%
** [[Hajime Saito|saito]]: 6%
** Other composers and their notecharts: 20%
* With the three exceptions of [[Midnight Yoghurt(onna SPY oiroke go-go dasshutsu daisakusen)|Midnight Yoghurt(女SPY☆お色気ゴーゴー脱出大作戦)]], [[Spell on me ~miwaku no jumon|Spell on me ~魅惑の呪文]], and [[Daikenkai|大見解]], all 22 KONAMI originals from [[AC pnm 6|pop'n music 6]] have been removed.
* Curiously, neither the [[pop'n music 8 credits|game]] or [[pop'n music 8 OST Booklet Credits|soundtrack]] for the game lists a sound director. However, the official [https://web.archive.org/web/20150507063124/http://www.konami.jp/bemani/popn/music8/peace/staff.html website] does list wac as the sound director.
* System BGM is composed by [[Tomoyuki Uchida]] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFqzPSrXOsk].
* Total songs: 122

* Twee Pop
* Flower Pop


Sugoroku de 8 is pop'n music 8's unlock event. It began on July 17th, 2002.


* Course No. 3 - ??? Course, 2/4 stars
Before a round of play, you will be given a requirement to play during that game depending on which mode you play (such as a specific score requirement, or play a song with BEAT-POP). If you successfully fulfill that requirement during a round of play, you'll unlock at the end of the round the chance to play Sugoroku de 8. After your round ends, a number wheel appears, which will automatically land on a number from 1 to 6. pop'n music character [[KRAFT]] will then move that many spaces across a map of Japan.
* J-R&B 3
* Housy Pop
* Hyper J-Pop
* Eurobeat


Reaching a city may unlock a song, course, or character. On your first trip around Japan for each week, you ''must'' land exactly on the city to receive a song/course/character, or else you will not get anything. Once you go around Japan the second time, you will receive the missing song/course just by passing through. The event ends once you unlock 100% of the unlocks. The order you visit the cities are as follows:


* Course No. 4 - ??? Course, 3/4 stars
* Tokyo (東京)&rarr;Shizuoka(静岡)&rarr;Nagoya(名古屋)&rarr;Osaka(大阪)&rarr;Kobe(神戸)&rarr;Kochi(高知)&rarr;Hiroshima(広島)&rarr;Kagoshima(鹿児島)&rarr;Shimonoseki(下関)&rarr;Tottori(鳥取)&rarr;Kanazawa(金沢)&rarr;Niigata(新潟)&rarr;Aomori(青森)&rarr;Sapporo(札幌)&rarr;Abashiri(網走)&rarr;Hakodate(函館)&rarr;Sendai(仙台)&rarr;Mito(水戸)
