First videos of Game Version 12.01 songs



too bad it's not 12.09 that would have been perfect

Ahem. HQ capture videos aren't out yet as it's the first day of the update, but there are a few videos and full difficulty sets already up online so let's see em!

The above video, at a slightly weird angle, is the Love Live! anime OP, Bokura wa Ima no Naka De. Together with the Kuroko's Basketball OP, its Oni is also at 8* offering a healthy dose of challenge. A lot of new Momoiro songs at 8* these days!

At current time of writing there is no video of the new Inazuma Eleven OP (the only one up right now is muted due to copyright problems) but it is confirmed to be at 6* Oni.

Now, the three Touhou Project songs. We learned from a hint in the blog post two weeks ago that one of them, NeGa/PoSi Love/Call would have an Ura chart, but it turns out...all three of them have Uras!

NeGa/PoSi turns out to be the easiest of the three, at 6* Oni and 8* Ura Oni (3/4/6/6/8). The remixed version of Grip and Break down!! is slightly harder at 7* Oni with 9* Ura Oni (4/5/6/7/9).

And the clincher is no other than Cirno's Perfect Math Class. While there's no video of the regular ONi, it's for good reason; the Ura Oni is the main attraction as it's the sole 10* chart to be introduced in this update. It's not a very difficult 10*, but the streams are pretty confusing if you're not used to it. The low BPM makes them more manageable.


Other videos, such as Grip and Break down!! Ura Oni and the Dojo Ranking challenges. Due to current lack of time I'll only show the 10-Dan challenge (and soneone's already passed it!) but we will cover the challenges in full very soon.




UPDATE: Momoiro Version's Rewards Shop also gets new songs with this software update! A couple of them, this time: Namco Original Shiro Neko Caramel Mugen no Wata ame and Gershwin's Concerto in F No.3 for the Classic genre. Both the tunes used to be console exclusives, but now arcade players have a chance to try them out!
