2005, for the most part, saw things as usual for BEMANI. KONAMI continued to make arcade and home games as per the norm. There were two interesting things that happened in the year in BEMANI, though. | |||
The first was an unusual collaboration between Nintendo and KONAMI, with the Mario-themed [[CS DDR MARIO|DanceDanceRevolution with MARIO]] on Nintendo Gamecube. Made by Hudson Soft (even running on their ''Mario Party'' series' game engine), it combined Mario game remixes and classical remixes with a story mode, featuring interesting in-game gimmicks and even mini-games. It was the Gamecube's sole DanceDanceRevolution title, though two years later KONAMI and Nintendo would collaborate a ''lot'' more with DanceDanceRevoltion-themed games. | |||
The other big shake-up was [[AC GFDM V|GuitarFreaks V & DrumMania V]]. After six years of being on dated, archaic hardware, KONAMI finally moved the series to the far stronger PlayStation 2-based BEMANI Python 2 Hardware. The result was a then record 50 new songs, crisper movies, music videos added for the new licenses, and ''lots'' of revivals, with an overall songlist nearly ''double'' that of [[AC GF11DM10|GUITARFREAKS 11thMIX & drummania 10thMIX]]. [[AC GFDM V2|GuitarFreaks V2 & DrumMania V2]] followed in November. | |||
The fun for GuitarFreaks & DrumMania fans doesn't stop there, though, because in [[2006]] they'd have a '''lot''' more to celebrate. | |||
