I'm a pretty big IIDX fan.  I've only been playing for a couple years but the game has grown to be one of my absolute favorites.  I actually started off playing BMUS and then ended up getting a bunch of imports.  I'm not amazing at it by any means (I can clear most most Hyper 9's and a few 10's on the new rating system) but I get a lot of enjoyment out of playing.

Favorite Mix: DistorteD (I love the new songs and all the old TaQ songs are great)

I have a IIDX 8th arcade machine in my place of business and I was playing at home long before it got here. I'm a IIDX junkie, you could say.

 Wish there was more US support for it.

I wanna try this game so much. ive listened to the soundtracks of the 5 most recent games and those songs would do just fine.

I'd like to get better at IIDX, but i just can't get passed the early sync. :( It bugs me.

AgoraPerry:
Since you're an admin here, do you know if Konami is actually going to read what we have to say?

Also, do you know anything regarding the release of AC IIDX in the US?

I am a big IIDX fan. Its alot of fun.

 

The location test was really fun to, I met a lot of people similar to me, and Just talking in line waiting for my turn was a lot of fun.

 

The line the first day was about a 1 1/2 hour wait to even be able to touch the machine! It was the most succesful arcade test I have seen or heard of.

To add on to anass's question, by Konami do we mean KOJ or just KDEI?

But yeah, I suck at IIDX (lol). I only have BMUS, and I've cleared the 4's on Normal (L7?) except for Holic. I've gotten most of the Hyper 4's, and I cleared ska a go go with some Training Mode practice =P

I don't play very often though (and I put the controller on my thighs since I don't have a table of the right height), so the turntable's a bit stiff and sometimes I'll slightly spin the controller when I'm going quickly. Also I play mostly one-handed (rawr turntable), though I've been introducing my right hand lately for cramp prevention.

Here, this is my VJarmy. I haven't updated it since the last playthrough, and I've started using HS3 over 2 since then. A lot of the misses are from missing the keys, lol.

Oh God, these posts make me want to play bemani games! And TimeSpaceMage has just reminded me to update my own VJArmy account. In any event, here's where I was a few months ago in IIDX:

I'm pretty sure that I'm a bit worse than that now because it's been a bit since I've played. My favorite CS mix at the moment is Happy Sky, but I think they're all great. I can do most 10s and a handful of 11s, and got like 70-something% on Scream Squad another one time. I'm very much looking forward to Gold CS, but it's soooo long away D:.

To those who asked - I read practically every post on these forums and I also relay information to Konami (KDEI, not Konami of Japan) so your opinions are heard.

Anyway, back to IIDX discussion... anyone excited about the GOLD LE pack?  I know I am (I want that beatnation summit DVD so bad)!

The LE pack is, literally, gold (I made a funny, hur hur).

We have DistorteD here, soon to be GOLD so that I can finally play songs like Vanessa and Fire Fire.

I own BMUS and Distorted CS.

 Between those I can pass every 1-10 (1-9 and one 10 on the BMUS system) and 11 11s.

 

Hardest songs I can beat would be Quantum teleporatation [a], quasar [a], and Holic [a].

I own 5th, 8th, and 10th.

I am definitely going to buy GOLD when it comes out. It has a great group of new songs (and old) and I can't wait for the collab songs :]. Hopefully there will be some BM revivals like DD had.

I'm really looking forward to the GOLD LE.  I've been craving a DVD release of the beatnation summit so the fact that it is bundled with GOLD is wonderful news to me!

IIDX is the best video game ever made. The immersion lasts longer than DDR because I don't get tired. :)

The scores aren't great, most of them, but it shows how often I play. I've been playing a for long time but I never turned out to be a great player. But I've always kept playing. I just love the game. A big part of the game for me is the challenge and improvement thing, which is why I've been using VJA ever since Remy opened it to public. And because I've stopped getting better at the scoring thing I've been tempted to quit a few times, but not really. IIDX is the only game where I can AA 7s and be happy. I know I'm contradicting myself now. What I'm trying to say is that I've been addicted to IIDX for different reasons at different times.

Put another way, showing my support at the 1st IIDX location test was worth 36 hours of driving. I had my chance to show my love for SN2 and DM V4 the same way, but I passed. And if Konami were to announce another IIDX location test anywhere in the continental US, I'd go again. (Actually, I did! But location number #2 was at TGA and I was going there anyway. But test number three? I'm there!)

10th and Gold are my favorite soundtracks of the whole series. I've been looking foward to Gold CS ever since the first lineouts where the player screwed up Roulette! That game is going to make me late for work when it ships. :)

I own every home version beatmania released(yes, every one), I love the game, I love the challenge it presents, and I do love the recently implemented rival system.  Pushes me and my friends to play harder.

I'm also addicted to "true" extra stages in IIDX.  They are always so cool and I love the custom background images and menus you get when you obtain extra stage.  IIDXRed ES was most menacing, but very cool.

Very excited for IIDX Gold, lots of great songs on there, probably going to pre-order it very soon.

Ahh...  IIDX.  I just got it a few weeks ago. I have BMUS, and 10th, Red, HS, and DistorteD.  I could play 4's and some 5's the first day except I haven't been able to get better since -_-   Awesome game though <3

These are neat. You get to see their hands and the screen in all of them.

CSTAR is wicked good. This is an old video of him AAAing a very hard course with 100% bar left. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9O4YLI1Ugzs
