== | == Misc. == | ||
Due to limited space in the early pop'n music games, similar to [[PnM_AC_1|pop'n music]], none of the original backgrounds or sprites from that game or [[PnM_AC_2|pop'n music 2]] are re-used in this game, although some of songs from the original game (and all from 2) are in this one. Character from [[PnM_AC_1|pop'n music]] with no match-ups to pop'n 3 characters are replaced by SHOLLKEE, and characters who don't have match-ups with pop'n music 2 characters are replaced by ice, who made his debut in this game. Additionally, all [[PnM_CS_1|pop'n music 1 PS]]/[[PnM_CS_1_DC|DC]] ''and'' [[PnM_CS_2|pop'n music 2 PS]]/[[PnM_CS_2_DC|DC]] (except AKIBA) are represented exclusively by AYA, who comes in various colors for each song. | |||
