pop'n music 7

General Information

  • Released: November 22nd, 2001.
  • First pop'n music game to keep track of Greats, Goods, and Bads at the bottom of the screen in every mode.
  • First pop'n music game to tell you the BPM of a song during the song.
    • Also the last pop'n music game to date to list the BPM of a song at the music select screen.
  • First pop'n music game with Miss animation that fades into the background of the character who misses, instead of occurring automatically each time they miss a note.
  • First pop'n music game that shows you your combo count right above the pop-kun you hit, as opposed to the center of the screen.
  • Jun Wakita starts writing original music for the series.
  • Tomosuke Funaki makes his pop'n music debut, as does Shoichiro Hirata.
  • The official web site is the first one since pop'n stage which shows a picture of the character in a song AND their background in that song.
  • The soundtrack is the first to include songs from console versions made 2 games prior to the current arcade version. In this case, the pop'n music 7 soundtrack contains songs from pop'n music 5 CS. This trend continued with the soundtracks for the next 8 games.
    • It's also the first pop'n music game soundtrack to consist of more than one CD on its soundtrack (the pop'n music 3 vs. pop'n stage 2 CD collection doesn't count as they're separate games).
  • The character designs from this game would later be used in the console-only puzzle game pop'n Taisen Puzzle Dama Online.
  • Total number of songs: 94

Let's make pop'n music 7 Together!

Prior to the release of pop'n music 7, a poll was held on Konami's web site as to what songs should get a remix in pop'n music 7. All songs from pop'n musics 1 through 6 (plus the 4 CS games at the time) were eligible. Cry Out got the most votes out of all the songs listed, with a total of 845 votes, with 君を壊したい! second with 735 votes. (It never got a remix, though there was a Live version in pop'n music 8). Other strong songs included ROSE~恋人よ、薔薇色に染まれ (626), Homesick Pt.2&3 (601), 走りぬける君へ、Hurry up! (490), and 大見解 (465). At the end Cry Out, 龍舞~DRAGON DANCE, and 透明なマニキュア were remixed (despite 龍舞~DRAGON DANCE being in 69th place with only 44 votes), and Homesick Pt.2&3 got an extended version courtesy of pop'n music sound director Jun Wakita. (大見解 did eventually get a remix years later in pop'n music 16 PARTY♪, 大見解の新見解.)

Name that Character!

Shortly before the release of pop'n music 7, a contest in Japan was held to anyone to name three of the game's new characters. The contest was known as "PapaMama * 7". Shortly before the game was released, the winners were announced, as well as the names of the new characters;
