beatmania CORE REMIX
Release Information
- Release date: November 28th, 2000
General Information / Changes
- Song list consists mainly of remixes of songs from the first two beatmania titles, noted as "NEW!" on the song selection screen.
- The original versions of the songs are playable as well, denoted as "CLASSIC" on the song selection screen.
- All songs from beatmania ClubMIX have been removed.
- Song titles are now displayed as low-resolution grayscale artwork tinted according to the current song/chart type: NEW! songs are white, ANOTHER charts are red, and CLASSIC songs are brown.
- Last beatmania game to feature Reo Nagumo as a staff member, who had left KONAMI the previous month.
- Tomosuke Funaki makes his beatmania debut.
- The beatmania CORE REMIX opening theme, titled CORE-DES, marks Osamu Migitera's first contribution to the beatmania series. His first playable songs in the beatmania series would appear nine months later in 6thMIX.
- First beatmania game to allow players to change options on the music select screen (through a window that appears when START is held) in EVENT MODE by default.
- CORE REMIX reintroduces the BM-II DOUBLE modifier that debuted in completeMIX 2 and renames it to IIDX DOUBLE.
- The modifier moves the 1P- and 2P-side play fields to the center of the screen when playing Double (to mimic the layout of Double Play in beatmania IIDX).
- CORE REMIX changes the values for the HI-SPEED 1/2/3 scroll speed modifiers from x2.0/x3.0/x4.0 to x1.5/x2.0/x3.0, respectively.
- These values would carry over to the last game in the original beatmania series, beatmania THE FINAL.
