eAMUSEMENT

General Information

eAMUSEMENT (written as e-AMUSEMENT before February 20th, 2013) is an online service offered by KONAMI since August 30th, 2002 to enable certain games to access special locked content, as well as providing live Internet ranking. It is used by all current BEMANI games alongside other KONAMI arcade games.

Initially, players had to use one Entry Card (エントリーカード) for each game and register it to a KONAMI ID. Its replacement, the e-AMUSEMENT PASS was introduced in November of 2005. Unlike the Entry Cards, one e-AMUSEMENT PASS can be used for more than one game. On November 17th, 2010, support for mobile and BitCash was added.

On February 9th, 2018, it was announced that eAMUSEMENT PASSes will support unified specifications with that of SEGA's Aime and BANDAI NAMCO's BANAPASSPORT passes in summer 2018, allowing for shared compatibility between any games that support any of these services.

Functions

Registering an eAMUSEMENT Pass on an arcade machine

eAMUSEMENT PASSes can be purchased from your arcade operator. Registering a new card can be done on any eAMUSEMENT enabled machine. As an example, in beatmania IIDX:

  1. Insert coin(s).
  2. Insert / Scan your card into the reader on the side. You will be shown the terms and conditions; select the agree option "はい".
  3. Input a 4-digit PIN. This is used to authenticate your card. Input it again to confirm.
  4. Enter your IIDX DJ name (up to 6 characters). Then select your region.
    • For regions outside Japan: 米国 (USA), 欧州 (Europe), 海外 (Other)
  5. You will be asked to confirm your beatmania IIDX details.

DanceDanceRevolution:

  1. Scan your card on the reader next to the monitor, on the side, or below the monitor.
  2. You will be shown the terms and conditions, just like IIDX.
  3. Set a 4-digit pin to use as an authentication code. Repeat the same combination to confirm.
  4. Enter your DDR Dancer Name (8 characters) and then select your region/country. America has regions sorted by state.
  5. Your DDR Code and dancer information is now saved.

Subsequently, simply insert or scan your card, enter your PIN, and register your card on that game (if you have not done so).
