* A common pronunciation of AA among players in Japan is "Double-Ace". KONAMI stresses that there is no "official" pronunciation, but notes that "Double-Ace" is a common one among players.
* According to the [https://web.archive.org/web/20050228132704fw_/http://www.konami.co.jp/am/bm2dx/bm2dx11/qanda_vol1.html Q&A corner] of the beatmania IIDX 11 IIDX RED official website, there isn't an official way to read AA, although it was generally referred as "ダブルエース" (Double-Ace) by the production team.
* In the arcade version of beatmania IIDX 11 IIDX RED, a generic video was used. However, in the [[CS IIDX RED|CS version]], a new video/animation was produced for AA from ''Visual Emotions 3'', which also includes [[The Hope of Tomorrow]], [[Raspberry Heart (English Version)]] and [[D.A.N.C.E.!]].
** Notably, AA is sorted as "ダブルエース" in beatmania IIDX LIGHTNING MODEL cabinets, and AA BlackY mix has "AA" rendered as "ダブルエース" for sorting purposes in the SOUND VOLTEX series.
* At the time of its release, AA's Single ANOTHER chart had the most notes of any Single Play chart, at 1834 notes. This short-lived record would be toppled by [[Mei|]] [[AC HAPPY SKY|one version later]], with 2000 notes.
* AA held the record at the time of its release for the most notes of any ANOTHER chart in beatmania IIDX on both Single and Double, with 1834 and 1739 notes respectively.
** Both of these records would be surpassed by [[Mei|冥]] in [[AC HAPPY SKY|beatmania IIDX 12 HAPPY SKY]], which has 2000 notes on both of its ANOTHER charts.
* AA received a brand-new video in [[beatmania IIDX visual emotions 3]]. This video was later added to the arcade series in [[AC DistorteD|beatmania IIDX 13 DistorteD]], and was also carried over to [[CS IIDX RED|beatmania IIDX 11 IIDX RED CS]].
* AA was available in [[CS INFINITAS|beatmania IIDX INFINITAS]]' championship Mode from August 10th to 21st, 2016.
** On August 22nd, 2016, it was added to standard Mode for anyone who had played the ''PREMIUM∞CUP'' in championship Mode at least once.
** From December 2019, it could be purchased with BITs.
** From April 20th, 2022, it is available by default in [[CS INFINITAS 2020|beatmania IIDX INFINITAS (2020)]].
* AA also appears as one of the background music selectable to play during ''Accel Rave Time'' (アクセルレイブタイム) in ''SEVEN'S BEAT'' (セブンスビート), a KONAMI medal redemption game.
