:Courses are an arcade mode of play where you play four predetermined songs back to back on a single life bar. The bar barely increases during play, and barely fills up between songs. An empty bar results in your immediate disqualification, though you can still enter your name if you got a high enough score on the rankings. In the pop'n music CS games [[PnM_CS_6|6]] through [[PnM_CS_8|8]], certain songs can only be played in Game/Free Mode by playing them in courses. [[PnM_AC_17|pop'n music 17 THE MOVIE]] marks the final appearance of courses to date in the arcade; Expert Courses were dropped in [[PnM_AC_18|pop'n music 18 せんごく列伝]] | :Courses are an arcade mode of play where you play four predetermined songs back to back on a single life bar.

:Prior to courses, there was a mode in [[PnM_AC_3|pop'n music 3]] which allowed you to play through three songs back-to-back with Hyper notecharts. This mode was never used again due to Hyper charts being added to the core game the following installment. | :Prior to courses, there was a mode in [[PnM_AC_3|pop'n music 3]] which allowed you to play through three songs back-to-back with Hyper notecharts.

:A term used by players for the small pop'n music controllers (sometimes derogatorily) for the PS/DC/PS2 games, originally black. The controller was completely redesigned (and re-colored white) for the release of [[PnM_CS_10|pop'n music 10 CS]]. Minis are also fully compatible with the PS2 IIDX games, even [[CS_USA|the US version]]; the two farthest left buttons are used for the turntable (the top being used for upwards, and the bottom for downwards). | :A term used by players for the small pop'n music controllers (sometimes derogatorily) for the PS/DC/PS2 games, originally black.
