The Cardinal Gate system is a new extra stage system that challenges players to pass four "gates" for their extra stages in an effort to play the One More Extra Stage.  In order to reach the OMES, the player needs to obtain "marks" for all of the Cardinal Gate songs.  This is done by Hard Clearing all 4 songs on the ANOTHER difficulty, passing with at least an A.  After all four marks are achieved, the next time you Hard Clear (on ANOTHER, with at least an A) a song in the Cardinal Gate, you will earn the OMES.

'''In order to reach the OMES''', the player needs to obtain "marks" for all of the Cardinal Gate songs.  This is done by passing all 4 Cardinal Gate songs:
* The Hard modifier must be on.
* Autoscratch, 5-key, Mirror, Random, and S-random modifiers must be off.
* Must be on the ANOTHER difficulty.
