Similarly, KONAMI also planned an English version of beatmania IIDX 15 DJ TROOPERS like they did with beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD.

Another attempt at bringing over a beatmania IIDX arcade game to Western audiences was made with [[AC Resort Anthem|beatmania IIDX 18 Resort Anthem]].

The European arcade version of [[AC DDR SuperNOVA2|DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA2]] never made it to Europe, due to Sony's refusal of letting the original Japanese PlayStation 2 into European territories. BEMANI Python 2, the hardware SuperNOVA2 ran on, was simply a retail PlayStation 2 with added I/O boards. While Europe ''did'' receive a PlayStation 2 Dancing Stage title under [[CS DS SuperNOVA2|the Dancing Stage SuperNOVA2 name]], it was nothing more than a stripped-down version of the [[CS DDR SuperNOVA2 NA|North American PlayStation 2 SuperNOVA2 CS game]], with [[Cara Mia|one new license]] and most of the North American licenses removed. | The European arcade version of [[AC DDR SuperNOVA2|DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA2]] never made it to Europe, due to Sony's refusal of letting the original Japanese PlayStation 2 into European territories.
