Originally, the plan for [[AC 1st style|beatmania's sequel]] was to release two different cabinets, the "standard" cabinet, known as beatmania II, and the "deluxe" cabinet, known as beatmania IIDX. Compared to the deluxe cabinet, beatmania II featured a smaller CRT display instead of the larger rear-projection display found on early beatmania IIDX cabinets, no bass shaker, less powerful speakers and an overall smaller footprint. The difference can even be seen in its different tagline compared to beatmania IIDX – "The next generation beatmania standard version." | |||
However, the standard cabinet was cancelled for unknown reasons before its release, leaving just beatmania IIDX. The few cabinets that were produced were later exported to Korea as [[AC 2nd style|beatstage II 2nd style]], and are now extremely rare. One of these cabinets can be seen in the Tatsujin videos in [[CS 6th style|beatmania IIDX 6th style CS -new songs collection-]]. References to beatmania II can still be seen in some of the older generic videos even in the latest releases of beatmania IIDX, as well as in song titles such as [[SP-TRIP MACHINE (for beatmania II)]]. | |||
