= EMPRESS PLACE =
 
EMPRESS PLACE is the EXTRA STAGE system of beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS, which started on December 3rd, 2008. This will only appear with one player ''only''. eAMUSEMENT is required to play this event.
 
The goal is to collect 12 types of jewels to unlock the songs on EXTRA STAGE. There are 12 types of jewels you can collect, and how many of each you can hold. Playing on BEGINNER or TUTORIAL will ''not'' give you jewels:
 
* January: garnet (red), eight
* February: amethyst (purple), 12
* March: coral (red), 12
* April: diamond (transparent), three
* May: emerald (green), five
* June: pearl (white), 15
* July: ruby (red), five
* August: peridot (green), nine
* September: sapphire (blue), three
* October: opal (aqua), seven
* November: topaz (yellow), eight
* December: turquoise (blue), 15
 
To unlock a chart, players have to acquire at least four jewels, with four for NORMAL, five for HYPER and six for ANOTHER. Please see [http://bemaniwiki.com/index.php?beatmaniaIIDX16%20EMPRESS/EMPRESS%20PLACE BEMANIWiki] on jewel requirements changes depending on the month. Doing so and the EMPRESS PLACE folder will appear during the Extra Stage, and the player is locked onto the folder once it opened (the game will warn players on playing songs with extreme difficulty). Note that arcade settings ''must'' be set to three songs for it to appear.
 
Completing all three songs on a difficulty level on HARD with a AAA will allow you to access 卑弥呼 on ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE for that difficulty level.
 
EMPRESS PLACE ended on February 18th, 2009 (beat #2). All songs were then unlocked for normal play.
