* According to Naoki Maeda, "MAX 300 was a pretty crazy song in several meanings. I personally meant it to be a challenge for the players, but as I learned more players were surpassing it by the day, I thought I had to stop making high-BPM songs since I was "defeated," but I didn't learn my lesson and kept making more of them around 300 BPM, heh."

This is an upper-hard techno song unique to music simulation games, with an astounding speed of 300 BPM.<br>

"Players who can clear this provocative high speed song in this game is like a superman to me..." These thoughts still haven't changed.

And a DDR user e-mailed NAOKI and said, "Please create a BPM400 song!". Do you want to surpass humans? Do you want to become a superman? How can you all do this? It's a mystery. Oh dear, you're all aviators. (They're from a different generation....)

Let's draw something powerful like a raging festival for this song. So the dance is a bit conscious of a rock style. I recreated the part where the tricky part precisely stops for a moment. This animation's material took the most time. Since the original screen size is small, there's a place to always cheat, but this time, I reduced the image one-by-one to a poster-like resolution...... However, even if I fixed the size and reduced it to 15-color, it's completely meaningless. It's not effective. What a surprise. At least it must be wide....

But, I quite like the subtle animations.
