beatmania THE FINAL
Release Information
- Location test dates:
- May 17th to 22nd, 2002
- May 24th to 29th, 2002
- June 1st to 6th, 2002
- Release date: July 26th, 2002
General Information / Changes
- Last title of the original beatmania series.
- beatmania THE FINAL has the biggest song list of the original beatmania series, which includes several revived songs from every beatmania arcade game (save for beatmania featuring DREAMS COME TRUE), a handful of BEMANI crossovers, and almost all of beatmania III's new songs.
- beatmania III crossovers are colored green on the song wheel.
- Selectable color schemes were removed.
- Most of the returning beatmania songs (and beatmania III songs) that originally had duplicate charts received brand-new ones.
- All song titles are now displayed in the same font. Internally, this is done using the same unique artwork system introduced in CORE REMIX.
- Due to memory limitations, movies are now displayed as a little box, with generic animations from various older beatmania games used. However, a few songs have unique little clips.
- MISS animations were removed as well.
- A judgment counter similar to that which can be enabled in EXPERT mode in beatmania 7thMIX is now always present. It can be disabled, but this only hides the judgment numbers and covers the frame of the counter with an overlay.
- HIDDEN+SUDDEN now makes the notes briefly appear in the middle of the screen, as opposed to not appear at all. As such, the STEALTH modifier, which retains the old HIDDEN+SUDDEN behaviour, was added.
