TargonRedDragon, the player of DDR 4thMIX (which replaced DDR 3rdMIX), DDR Extreme (which replaced DDR 3rdMIX PLUS), and DDR SuperNOVA2 available on Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines. I am the regular player of pop'n music 17 THE MOVIE, pop'n music 19 TUNE STREET and DrumMania V8 also available in the said address. I am the regular contributor of Pump It Up series on Wikipedia.org.
Starting early 2007, I played DDR 3rdMIX when I was 14 years old.
KEYBOARDMANIA 2ndMIX and beatmania 3rdMIX were available and I played them joyfully, but were gone due to hardware failures. They're replaced by pop'n 17 and DMGF V7, which then V8
I recently played DrumMania V3 and DDR X2 on Metro Manila, but sadly missed on DDR X3 VS 2ndMIX, jubeat copious, REFLEC BEAT limelight and DrumMania XG3 and GuitarFreaks XG3. Beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD and 17 SIRIUS are also available on Manila, but they're too far away from our summer house in the metropolis.
Statuses of available arcades
HIRO's AMUSEMENT, GAISANO CITY MALL
- pop'n music 17 THE MOVIE: buttons are perfect, system works well, screen is clear, and all songs are unlocked in normal play, but:
- Left Green Button needs to be pressed harder.
- Red Button has a little problem, that it will miss a note rarely.
- Right Blue Botton sometimes plays twice when it is pressed once.
- pop'n music 19 TUNE STREET: at first, let me tell you that the arcade is different from original. Pop'n 19 is custom-made arcade, not factory-original. It uses an LED flat screen monitor with its stand, connected to a desk where console USB buttons are planted. Inside the desk is a cabinet that contains computer desktop, keyboard, mouse, and coin machine. The system is Windows XP, with its game ripped from Pop'n 19 arcade.
- Buttons are fixed and perfect, screen is bright and clear, but is stretched at 4:3 instead of 16:9, gameplay is same and good, but:
- Since it is a ripped game, the system is defective. The game crashes to windows with "Activate Windows Desktop" white screen display on wallpaper.
- Unlocks are Hidden Songs and Internet Ranking Unlocks, but anything else, such as APPEND FESTIVAL, GuitarFreaks & DrumMania Rendou Kikaku, and Town Mode songs are never to be unlocked.
- DrumMania V8: screen is clear, gameplay is okay, but:
- Hi-Hat is defective.
- Cymbal is a little defective.
- No unlocks are available.
- GuitarFreaks V8: screen is clear, gameplay is okay, but:
- Both guitars' green keys are very defective, and it requires maintenance.
- No unlocks are available.
- It is placed in another area about 8 meters from DrumMania V8, and cannot allow session play.
- DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME: screen is clear, gameplay is perfect, sound systems are loud and clear, but:
- 2-Player down panel plays twice when lightly stepped once.
- No unlocks are available. It requires code and needs to get access to secret menu in test mode.
- Dance Maniax (I don't play dance maniax anymore, except Dance Maniax 2ndMix append J-Paradise)
TIMEZONE, CENTRIO AYALA MALL
- DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA2: panels are fixed and worked properly, gameplay is okay, and all songs are unlocked in normal play, but:

- DrumMania V8: screen is clear, drumkit is okay, gameplay is crisper, but:
- Hi-Hat has weak rubber, but unlike in Hiro's Amusement, it is perfect to play a note.
