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)]].

On March 5th, 2007, KONAMI tried out an English version of [[AC GOLD|beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD]] in Brunswick Zone in Naperville, Illinois, U.S.A. [https://sg.news.yahoo.com/2007-02-28-beatmania-iidx-gold-to-go-on-test-in-an-american-arcade.html]. Nothing ever came out of it afterwards. The English assets for beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD later appeared as unused images in [[AC DJ TROOPERS|beatmania IIDX 15 DJ TROOPERS]] (along with English screens for the [[e-amusement|e-AMUSEMENT]] Login and Mode Select screens from DJ TROOPERS). No beatmania IIDX game would receive a US version until [[AC HEROIC VERSE|beatmania IIDX 27 HEROIC VERSE]] in January 2020, nearly 13 years later.

Similarly, KONAMI also planned an English version of beatmania IIDX 15 DJ TROOPERS like they did with beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD. Unlike the latter however, there was no location test, and the only evidence of a planned localization are unused images of English translations of the e-AMUSEMENT Login and Mode Select screens hidden in the game's data.

Another attempt at bringing over a beatmania IIDX arcade game to Western audiences was made with [[AC Resort Anthem|beatmania IIDX 18 Resort Anthem]]. Like with DJ TROOPERS, no location tests were held, but evidence is found through an unused screen with an English translation of the Warning screen in the game's data. No attempts at bringing another beatmania IIDX game to America would be made until [[AC HEROIC VERSE|HEROIC VERSE]] was successfully released in January 2020.
