; EXTRA STAGE Requirement
To unlock the EXTRA Stage, the player must cumulate nine Result Stars, after which the stars are used and must accumulate again. If EXTRA STAGE is not reached, any stars are carried over to the next playthough via eAMUSEMENT. Each player has its own set of stars whether if it is played on VERSUS or not, and no more than nine stars can be carried at a time. If either player access EXTRA STAGE on VERSUS, both players stars are used instead, regardless of count.
 
If the player passes FINAL STAGE and has 9 Result Stars, they will unlock EXTRA STAGE. If they do not make it to 9, the Result Stars will carry over to the next play session via eAMUSEMENT. Each player can hold no more than 9 Result Stars. Once EXTRA STAGE is unlocked, the player's Result Stars are used and removed.
 
During VERSUS PLAY, each player has their own set of Result Stars. If either player unlocks EXTRA STAGE, both players can proceed but both players' Stars will be used.


If e-AMUSEMENT is not enabled or not available on the arcade machine, then Result Stars cannot carry over between rounds, and the only way to unlock EXTRA STAGE is to obtain exactly 3 Result Stars per song.
EXTRA STAGE can also be accessed on cabinets that lacked e-AMUSEMENT support, but since these stars do not carry over between each playthrough, the only way is to obtain exactly three stars per song.


Since each player can obtain a maximum of 3 Result Stars per song, Result Stars higher in the list above take priority over lower ones. For example, a player getting a AAA Full Combo on their first song of the day will receive the three white stars for a grade of AAA, and will not receive the green Full Combo star. The colors of the Result Stars have no importance for unlocking EXTRA STAGE.

<nowiki>*</nowiki>Unlike the other Result Stars, the dark blue Daily Star is obtained on the end-of-game screen after the player's first round of the day, and is obtained even if the player fails some or all of their stages or does not play on PRO Mode. For example, if the player obtains 8 Result Stars on their first round of the day, they have not met the EXTRA STAGE conditions by the time they complete FINAL STAGE. However, they will receive a 9th star just afterward, guaranteeing that they will be able to unlock EXTRA STAGE on their next round.
