I wondered what kind of comment I wrote for pop'n13, so when I looked at it in the [https://web.archive.org/web/20150507111349fw_/http://www.konami.jp/bemani/popn/music13/m_and_c/05/05_04.html official website], I somehow saw wac's comment in the very last line, "please include a movie for it when it's crossed over to IIDX.", and is that so?
