CS fans got three new console pop'n music games, too. [[PnM_CS_9|pop'n music 9 CS]] launched in February, containing all the new arcade originals, the debut of [[ee'MALL]] in the home releases, and a record 22 new CS songs, which was never matched by any other CS installment. It even included new LONG songs, in addition to the arcade version's. MARATHON is also introduced in this game, where you play ''every'' song in the game on a specific difficulty level in one super-long stretch of songs. (Thankfully, you can save in-between songs.) [[PnM_CS_10|pop'n music 10 CS]] followed in November, which introduced its own rather welcome addition to the series; you no longer had to be songs in the the arcade games to play them in FREE mode. And once you finished the unlocking system, all the game's charts were fully unlocked too, which was a main series game's first.

And lastly, in March KONAMI introduced [[PnM_CS_Taisen_Puzzle_Dama_Online|pop'n 対戦 ぱずるだま ONLINE]], a puzzle game based on their long-running ''Taisen Puzzle Dama'' (対戦 ぱずるだま) series. As the ONLINE subtitle implies, you could go online and play the game with other people, as well as download new pop'n music characters and songs. Unfortunately, the offline mode went down later that same year, leaving a lot of the content forever locked from new players. The game is played by matching three of the same liked color pop-kuns back at your opponent until their side is completely full. KONAMI never re-released the game as their part of their PS2 the BEST line, and the game has since remained in obscurity.

After the nine releases KONAMI released of the series last year, DanceDanceRevolution dialed it back a bit this year. Since there were no arcade games to port over for Japanese players, Japan's one and only CS release of DanceDanceRebvolution was the mid-November release [[CS DDR FESTIVAL|DDR FESTIVAL -DanceDanceRevolution-]]. It was mostly a compilation game, containing some old DanceDanceRevolution songs and a few new licenses, as well as most of the new content from  [[CS DDR EXTREME US|DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME US CS]]. But the game's biggest draw is that it also included '''all''' the new songs/DLC from [[CS DDR ULTRAMIX|DDR ULTRAMIX]], available to Japanese players for the first time ever. Many of them even received new HEAVY charts by the Japanese staff, which are widely considered superior to the Hawaii team's charts.
