The brand was originally named the Games & Music Division (G.M.D.) until it was changed in honor of its first successful game, beatmania in 1999. The name BEMANI is a Japanese syllabic abbreviation of be at mani a. Following the success of beatmania, the line was expanded with other music-based games throughout the years. A more colorful variation of the logo was created in 2004. This alternate logo is used only for some select series or games only: to present, including CS releases and ポップンリズミン.

BEMANI Events. KONAMI often holds several events involving one or more of its BEMANI series. For a list of them, please see BEMANI Events. KONAMI Arcade Championship (KAC) Created in 2011, KONAMI Arcade Championship is an annual competition hosted by KONAMI for some of its games series including the following BEMANI arcade series: beatmania IIDX, DanceDanceRevolution, GITADORA (GuitarFreaks & DrumMania), jubeat, pop'n music, REFLEC BEAT, SOUND VOLTEX (since 2012), DanceEvolution (2012-2016), BeatStream (2014-2016), ミライダガッキ FutureTomTom (2014), and MÚSECA (since 2016). A second contest, KAC Asia, was also held in Asia using only BEMANI series in 2011. The following year, the second contest was merged with the original KAC. Other Media. ビーマニポケット. The ビーマニポケット (BEMANI Pocket) is a portable game device created by KONAMI in 1998 to 2001. In total, 26 versions of the device were created with each containing a BEMANI game from one of the following series: beatmania, DanceDanceRevolution, ParaParaParadise, pop'n music and GuitarFreaks. beatnation Records. beatnation Records is the in-house recording label of KONAMI's BEMANI music branch founded in 2006 by dj TAKA. A sub-label, beatnation RHYZE was founded in 2014 with upcoming artists mainly from the SOUND VOLTEX series and a few other BEMANI series. BEMANI Backstage. BEMANI Backstage was an Internet radio program hosted by あさき and Yuei from March 1st, 2012 to September 9th, 2013. Each week on Thursday, they covered the latest news with other BEMANI staff members as special guests. In 2012, a BEMANI Backstageテーマソング (Theme Song) contest was held in SOUND VOLTEX FLOOR. The winning song, V.I.P. was added to SOUND VOLTEX BOOTH on November 8th, 2012. After the 70th episode, the program was put on indefinite hiatus. BEMANI Sound Team. Since November 1st, 2017, all in-house KONAMI original songs in BEMANI have been solely credited to BEMANI Sound Team . In-house musicians still appeared in live events but are referred collectively as "BEMANI Sound Team". The reason for this is unknown but it appears to be a policy extending throughout the Konami Amusement department. In-house graphic artists on KONAMI websites are solely credited to BEMANI Designers . The term was however used already as part of the announcement of the Continuing the Seniors! The Second Vocalist Contest update for SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN on October 13th, 2017. The contest songs only credit the vocalists. On the DANCERUSH STARDOM location tests, in-house songs were credited to "オリジナル". Once the game was released, only the How To Play/Lesson songs are credited to オリ ジナル, and on the official website for the game only. As of December 13th, 2017, all the in-house KONAMI original songs added from there and on credit the artist name as well, written within quotation marks after the BEMANI Sound Team name. As of January 16th, 2019, the BEMANI Designers now have their names written within quotation marks as well. The change for BEMANI Designers is only reflected in websites so far, and not in-game. The SOUND VOLTEX series either retains the original artist credit or is left blank for newer jackets by in-house designers. BEMANI生放送(仮) BEMANI生放送(仮) (BEMANI Namahousou (kari)), abbreviated as BE生(仮) , is a weekly live video broadcast that started on September 12th, 2013. The kanji in parenthesis in the title, 仮 (kari) means temporary, indicating that the program might change its name but was eventually kept as it is. Each Wednesday, various BEMANI staff cover the latest BEMANI news for each of the active series. The program is also commonly used to reveal exclusive news for the first time. On December 12th, 2014, the logo used for the program was revamped. Throughout 2017, BEMANI生放送(仮) stopped being weekly and aired only in specific days (to the point of becoming a rare occurrence), plus it also started to cover other KONAMI games such as the QUIZ MAGIC ACADEMY series. Since October 2017, in-house artists stopped appearing due to the BEMANI Sound Team policies. Official Website. Throughout the years, a few websites acted as main websites for the brand. In 2007 to 2010, two websites served as the main BEMANI sources of information: BEMANI Portal which covered the games releases and BEAT REVOLUTION / BEMANI MUSIC FOUNDATION, which covered the music content. Since 2012, BEMANI Fan Site became the only website for the BEMANI brand. Launched in 2006, BEAT REVOLUTION was the first collaboration between i-revo (Internet Revolution) and BEMANI. The website goal was to cover the musical aspect of the series. It had a separate section for BEMANI artists, the various BEMANI related albums and special interviews with the artists. The website was shut down in August of 2007 as BEMANI MUSIC FOUNDATION took it place. The BEMANI Portal launched on April 25th, 2007 as the central hub for all the BEMANI series. The first version of the website included only news from all the active BEMANI series and links to all of those along with the KONAMI STYLE store and the コナミネット (KONAMI NET) service. In 2011, the website was revamped and new sections were added: ARCADE GAME, GAME SOFT, MOBILE and MUSIC. It would eventually be closed on January 3, 2012, redirecting instead to BEMANI Fan Site. BEMANI MUSIC FOUNDATION. BEMANI MUSIC FOUNDATION debuted in September of 2007 as a replacement for BEAT REVOLUTION. The website was very similar to its predecessor, acting as a repertoire for BEMANI songs and artists. It also had a radio program titled BEMANI RADIO. The website closed on June 30, 2010 and the address redirected to BEMANI Portal. BEMANI Fan Site. Opened on June 30th, 2011, BEMANI Fan Site is the replacement to BEMANI MUSIC FOUNDATION and since January 3rd, 2012, to BEMANI Portal. BEMANI Fan Site re-introduced an artist section along with special report about various events. It also resumed the radio program which was retitled BEMANI Backstage. The radio program was eventually replaced by a weekly live broadcast, BEMANI生放送(仮) in 2013. The website was revamped on December 12th, 2014 and added a monthly music selection, a list of BEMANI events and an introduction page to all the current BEMANI series. On the front page, a selection of daily music is also featured with songs from REFLEC BEAT, jubeat and beatmania IIDX (which started at a later date). The birthdays of pop'n music characters for the month are also included. beatmania IIDX INFINITAS (PC) Post #1 · Posted at 2015-09-02 06:57:55am 5.9 years ago. methaniel Member 585 Posts Reg. 2012-12-31.

Fighting and dancing games both emerge from Asia, and they both foreground the body. They strip down bodily movement into elemental actions like stepping, kicking, leaping, and tapping, and make these the form and content of the game. I argue that fighting and dancing games point to a key dynamic in videogame play: the programming of the body into the algorithmic logic of the game, a logic that increasingly organizes the informatic structure of everyday work and leisure in a globally interconnected information economy.

  • CPR for the Arcade Culture a Case History on the Development of the Dance Dance Revolution Community
    CPR for the Arcade Culture A Case History on the Development of the Dance Dance Revolution Community Alexander Chan SUID 5075504 STS 145: History of Computer Game Design Stanford University March 16, 2004 Introduction Upon entering an arcade, you come across an unusual spectacle. Loud Japanese techno and a flashing neon glow pour out of the giant speakers and multicolored lights of an arcade console at the center of the room. Stranger than the flashy arcade cabinet is the sweaty teenager stomping on a metal platform in front of this machine, using his feet to vigorously press oversized arrows as the screen in front of him displays arrows scrolling upward. A growing group of people crowd around to watch this unusual game-play, cheering the player on. In large letters, the words “Dance Dance Revolution 3rd Mix” glow above the arcade machine. Most people who stumble upon a scene similar to this one would rarely believe that such a conceptually simple arcade game could foster an enormous nation-wide game community, both online and offline. Yet the rules of the game are deceptively simple. The players (one or two) must press the arrows on the platform (either up, down, left, or right) when the corresponding arrows on the screen reach the top, usually on beat with the techno/pop song being played. If the player doesn’t press the arrows on time, the song will quickly come to an end, and the machine will Arrows scrolling up a DDR screen ask for more quarters to continue play. Yet despite its simplicity, Dance Dance Revolution, or DDR for short, has helped create a giant player community in the United States, manifesting itself though various forms.

  • Dance, Dance Revolution
    Dance, Dance Revolution Dance Dance Revolution abbreviated DDR and also known as Dancing Stage in earlier games in Europe and Australasia, and some other games in Japan, is a music video game series produced by Konami. Introduced in Japan in 1998 as part of the Bemani series, and released in North America and Europe in 1999, Dance Dance Revolution is the pioneering series of the rhythm and dance genre in video games. Players stand on a "dance platform" or stage and hit colored arrows laid out in a cross with their feet to musical and visual cues. Players are judged by how well they time their dance to the patterns presented to them and are allowed to choose more music to play to if they receive a passing score. Dance Dance Revolution has been given much critical acclaim for its originality and stamina in the video game market. There have been dozens of arcade-based releases across several countries and hundreds of home video game console releases, promoting a music library of original songs produced by Konami's in-house artists and an eclectic set of licensed music from many different genres. The DDR series has inspired similar games such as Pump It Up by Andamiro and In the Groove by Roxor. Gameplay The core gameplay involves the player, stepping his or her feet to correspond with the arrows that appears on screen and the beat. During normal gameplay, arrows scroll upwards from the bottom of the screen and pass over a set of stationary arrows near the top (referred to as the "guide arrows" or "receptors", officially known as the Step Zone).
