Pump It Up (Video Game)	comment	Pump It Up is a rhythm game series developed by Andamiro. The gameplay focuses on stepping on panels on the floor that correspond to the four basic diagonal directions and a center panel, all in time to music. If this sounds a lot like DanceDanceRevolution, it is a lot like DDR: in fact, the game's first installment was also released in 1999. Some have speculated that the two games may have been developed at around the same time.However, while they may have similar mechanics, the slight differences between them make them both unique in their own right. First, there's the aforementioned pad layout of 4 diagonal arrows and a center panel. Then, there's the soundtrack. Unlike DDR's greater focus on J-pop and electronica, Pump primarily has Korean hip-hop and pop as its dominant genres. Just like DDR, there's also original music by a few in-house artists, often by Yahpp and his former in-house group BanYa, who often perform classical and rock music. Yes, you heard that right. Additionally, the differing pad layout can create a much wider variety of routines, and on higher difficulties, they can get really hard really fast. It's obvious why the highest 5-panel and 10-panel difficulties used to be named "Crazy" and "Nightmare" respectivelynote and this was the norm from Exceed to NXA, mind you - all the later games from Fiesta onwards use chart types and difficulty levels instead of difficulty names in reference to their songs' charts.There are two separate series of Pump It Up. The primary series comes from Andamiro directly, with the latest version of the game being Pump It Up Phoenix. Games are generally released globally, though some songs are added exclusively for or removed for specific regions. This series is popular in its home country of South Korea, as well as Latin America too. The secondary series was made due to competitor DDR being more popular in the United States and Japan at the time. It uses a different engine (StepMania to be precise), and thus can be considered a series of GaidenGames.Despite the cabinets from FX to TX having HD displays, proper 16:9 graphics support didn't exist until Prime. XX became the first game to only be officially supported on cabinets with built-in widescreen displays, including the new LX cabinet. With the release of XX, nearly every BGA from earlier games have been re-mastered in HD and modified to fit the widescreen aspect ratio.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_1117770f	type	Actually Four Mooks
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_1117770f	comment	Actually Four Mooks: Some charts feature extremely short hold notes that are worth a lot of combo, to the point where missing what appears to be an otherwise inconsequential step can lead to the 51 miss combo needed for a Game Over. A grand example exists in "King of Sales" S21, which features all-diagonal quad steps that appear to be just standard steps but are actually worth 50 combo each.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_12f70f7b	comment	Regional Bonus: While the soundtracks of each international release have been rather consistent, there are still a few cases where songs have been exclusive to specific markets, either due to licensing issues, but more often as a legitimate regional bonus. "Tell Me" was only included on Korean versions of NX2, but was added to the international editions on NX Absolute. The Latin American versions have had a few bonus songs, including "Danza Kuduro", "Rabiosa", and "Lovumba" on Fiesta 2, and "Limbo", "Que Viva la Vida" and "Melodia" on Prime. Prime 2 got a regional bonus on the Philippines, in the form of "Hush" by Yassi Pressman and Nadine Lustre. Averted in XX, where said song is made available in all regions.

The song was, however, absent for a long time - it was removed in Extra and only returned in Fiesta. The title drop also occurs on several other songs such as "Witch Doctor #1" from NX and "Up & Up (Produced by AWAL)" from Prime 2. A World Music example: "Pump it up" is the first thing you hear from the rap verse in "X-Rave" from Pro 2/Fiesta EX.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_1915143f	comment	Epileptic Flashing Lights: Mopemope D23. The original version of this chart had flashing white lights during the song's grungy parts. Due to this causing eye and seizure problems with players, this caused an immediate patch to remove those bright light effects. Several videos from older mixes retain this, such as those for "Hypnosis", "Extravaganza", "Final Audition Episode 1" and "Will-O-The-Wisp". Fortunately, you can either turn off (from Fiesta to Prime) or darken (from Prime 2 onwards) the BGA to prevent any seizures.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_1bd4c0bf	type	Unwinnable by Design
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_1bd4c0bf	comment	Unwinnable by Design: The progressive course "Make Haste!", from Pro 2. For starters, the entire course uses a modifier called Accelerando (the song goes faster when you do well, and slows down when you do poorly). Each song in the course also has a mod that slowly activates throughout the entire song, and if it fully activates, the song is impossible to finish (i.e. Stealth). Therefore, it is more directly up to how well the player is doing that determines if the song will finish in time. FFF mission from Prime's Mission Zone. The third stage requires you to clear D22 chart with 1450 total steps or more. The last 4 holds are replaced with rolls, which means you have to step on panels 200 times in 5 seconds in order to clear it. Alternatively, redo it over and over until the D24 is revealed and gets enough steps for you to do it

In Infinity, the Easy Station only has a limited amount of songs, and each song only has one dedicated chart. There are only 4 levels, and there are only two songs with level 4 charts.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_27a42ebc	type	Spiritual Successor
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_27a42ebc	comment	The Pro series was intended as a Spiritual Successor to In the Groove, as it has many of the same developers (including Kyle Ward), uses StepMania as its engine, has a course mode with visual distractions, mines, edit mode, etc. It even shares quite a bit of its soundtrack with ITG (some of which allegedly destined for the cancelled ITG 3; including "VVV" by ZiGZaG, the third song in ITG's recurring Vertex series, and "Take Me Back", a vocal version of the name entry music from ITG 2). Since the development team worked with Andamiro, it was quite unlikely the Pro series would fall victim to the same legal action that In The Groove did. Pro got a spiritual successor of its own in Infinity, which is also StepMania based but has a different feel that is both closer to the main series but still distinct.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b	type	Unintentionally Unwinnable
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b	comment	Unintentionally Unwinnable: The original version of Pro's "Up and Down" course was supposed to have a modifier gimmick on the last song, "Heel and Toe" that was supposed to make it look like the arrows were coming from both the top and bottom at once. Unfortunately, it didn't quite work right (blame refresh rates mainly). The first patch replaced said song with "Monkey Fingers", with a new modifier script that actually worked. Infinity has the mission "Perfect Supply", where the objective is to get 1 Perfect. The chart entirely consists of hold notes with the exception of the last note that is a tap. Considering that Pro Mode is on, the best way to complete the mission is to hit all the holds that will register as Superbs and hit only the last note as the Perfect. However, this mission is bugged, and even if a player manages to fulfill the mission requirement, the game won't give out the completion anyway. Therefore, the only way for one to get a completion of this mission is by contacting one of the (former) developers via email or social media, who will reward the completion to the player.

Or, if you're fast enough, you may fall butt-first on the center pad, while your hands hit the rear arrows and your feet hit the ones at the front. Or if you're small or otherwise have short legs, hit the front arrows with your hands, the back arrows with your feet, and the middle arrow with one knee. Great way to get bruised knees, though.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: Some of the earliest games invokednever left South Korea. This quickly stopped being the case and all new Pump games are now globally released, albeit with some regional differences in songlists. The first Pump It Up mix (known as The 1st Dance Floor), in particular, features a ton of differences compared to later PIU titles: You can only choose between four songs per Stage, and there is no option to play Singles and Doubles on the same playthrough. Oh, and an announcer would occasionally chime in during gameplay. Up until 2010 with the release of Fiesta, songs typically had only four or five charts that had actual difficulty names (Normal, Hard, Crazy, Double (later Freestyle), Nightmare). Extra charts were put in a separate "Another" folder in Zero. From Fiesta onwards, charts are named after the play style and the difficulty rating and songs can have as many charts as the developers want. Stepchart design during its earliest times. There has been instances where the original charts no longer exists in future releases due to editing or complaints filed by players. This trend stopped after the release of Fiesta, although some of the charts may return in Mission Mode. Stepchart leveling. The earlier installments had difficulty all over the place (up to lvl 12), but songs at level 5 or 9 were harder than most of the songs in the game. Exceed-NXA stretched it to 22-24 plus, but still had songs that exceeded their given difficulty like Get The party Started. While Fiesta was praised for giving FULL MODE (i.e. no longer categorizing in 5 difficulties), several older charts were still using the classic ratings. It finally took up to XX to adjust almost all of the charts properly.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_529ade8d	comment	Schizophrenic Difficulty: Hot Issue D26 from Fiesta EX. Hot girls in the background with a god-awful chart. The difficulty seesaws all over the place from having easier parts in the early run to having ridiculously hard parts like the 4-arrow bracket jumps in the middle of the song to the 32nd note steams at the last third of the song that is impossible to full combo. This chart was originally a scrapped joke chart that later on became official at the end of the machine's last patches, as well as a returning unlock for Fiesta 2. Unfortunately, the song is tournament-legal, if you are one of the unlucky souls to make it so far to finals and get it at random. Ultimately averted from Prime onwards, as the song was removed in this mix. The infamous Naissance S20. Try to drill jump as fast as possible. Or if you want some more challenge, Prime Quest Zone offers you Naissance D25. (Bonus leg stretching.) Guitar Man S18 and D20 from NX2 1.20, sharing the same ideas with both Hot Issue and Naissance, were quickly replaced short after. Unfortunately, the original charts made their comeback in Infinity.

Indeed, the developers picked up on the first two with the "Beethoven Influenza" Remix medley. As of XX, the series now has another classical piece remixed three times: Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake, in the forms of "Ugly Dee" by BanYa Production, "Red Swan" by Yahpp, and "Black Swan" by Zeron. As of Phoenix, Bizet's Habanera from Carmen joins the crowd of classical pieces remixed three times in Pump It Up, with "Higgledy Piggledy" by BanYa Production (remixed with tango classic Por Una Cabeza), "Carmen Bus" by StaticSphere & FUGU SUISAN (alias of KIEN and Fox-B) ...and "Nxde" by (G)I-DLE (though slightly).

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_62259825	type	Nintendo Hard
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_62259825	comment	Nintendo Hard: Rivals In the Groove for the most challenging game involving stepping on panels. While the arcade style charts do not have mines in them (except on Pro, where the charts are done in a more In The Groove-like style, and thus can contain mines and rolls), some mission mode charts have them, and can actually require the player to hit the mines in order to pass the mission. Takes this to a whole new level if the arcade machine's owner has enabled stage break, where the player gets an instant Game Over if the lifebar depletes, and it drains much more quickly than ITG does. In this case anything you pass will have a grade of A or higher. Fortunately stage break does not affect the first song of the credit. In DDR, doubles charts are designed so that the widest jump you ever have to make is a vertical arrow on one side and the other side's inner horizontal arrow. No such mercy exists in Pump It Up, where doubles charts can feature jumps and rolls that require your feet to be on extreme opposite sides of the stage. Don't pull a muscle! That said, Pump has looser timing windows than DDR, making it easier to get a perfect run on a Pump chart than it is to get a Perfect Full Combo on a DDR chart of the same difficulty. However, this often comes at the cost of Pump having a larger density of "boss" charts than DDR. That said, the Hard Judge and Very Hard Judge options exist for players who think that Pump's usual timing windows are too easy.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_66f763c0	type	Interface Screw
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_66f763c0	comment	Interface Screw: This can occur either through various chart gimmicks or appearance modifiers. Common when playing mission or course modes. Some missions allow you to avert this trope by paying mileage to make the effects go away. Pro 2 introduces Fake Notes to the mix. These are notes that look like the normal arrows, but are...well, fake. They were first noticed in this gauntlet course. Fake notes are available in StepMania 5 as well. Pro 2 has an amount of Progressive courses, where the arrows will move like crazy with many special effects added to them. At some points, they can make the chart harder to read. For example, in Ambience, the "Chaotic White" chart uses Stealth and Flash when the background is mainly white, and the "Photosynthesis" chart contains a strange perspective effect that makes the arrows almost impossible to sightread. Infinity has a mission called "Jonathan's Nightmare", which is "Jonathan's Dream" except with a noteskin that is the bird from the background video. It's fitting until you realize that the background video actually has a scene with an entire flock of them. "Black Maria", also from Infinity, has a distorted image of a little girl that suddenly obscures the game's interface for a few seconds at certain points in the song. The latest 1.01 update of Prime 2 has a song called "Just Kiddin". Hope you enjoy its motion-sickness-inducing BGA courtesy of Daicon, also known as MiLa. Pretty much any BGA by Daicon under the MiLa and Felnya aliases can present interface screws at some areas.

Most beginners who see a 3-panel jump may try to use their hands, either hurting them or missing the notes around the jump. The only times you have to actually use your hands are when you hit quad-diagonal steps, most notably in "Starian" S7 and "King of Sales" S21.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_7b7965dd	comment	Boss in Mook Clothing: Some songs don't have difficult patterns, but drain your stamina very quickly. "Get This Party Started" from Prex 3 is a very good example of this trope. The Normal, Hard, and Free Style charts are standard for a pop song, but Crazy and Nightmare have not only a max combo of over 660 including long notes, but also patterns that to this day are still very difficult to play through! They're so bad, rumor has it Andamiro fired the guy who made them. "We Are" from OBG is one of the songs you start the game with. Typically songs you start the game with are easy so newbies won't be so intimidated. Instead, "We Are" is chock full of strange body motions, relentless jump-step-jump combos, and reversing (occasionally randomized) running patterns. Many players dread this song anywhere, especially early in their song set due to how fast it can drain you. Oh, and that's on easy mode: it gets worse from there! The Full version of Canon D doesn't seem scary at first glance. Canon D is not a very hard song in its regular format and the full version starts out fairly easy. However, all difficulties listed for the full song version of Canon D are actually averaged difficulties. The "level 9" version, for example, starts out around level 5 difficulty goes up a little at a time to around level 12. The song is also twice the length of normal which can and does leave players drained to start with and then the increase in difficulty at the end hits to wipe them out!

Averted in XX, where the old S17 chart has been modified to include step notes at the start of the holds; it's also re-rated to an S18. Since the introduction of AV (Auto Velocity) in Prime 2, many players who play Yeo Rae A S13 set the Auto Velocity to a high number, sometimes even the highest, so that they can read the chart more easily.

They were first noticed in this gauntlet course. Fake notes are available in StepMania 5 as well. Pro 2 has an amount of Progressive courses, where the arrows will move like crazy with many special effects added to them. At some points, they can make the chart harder to read. For example, in Ambience, the "Chaotic White" chart uses Stealth and Flash when the background is mainly white, and the "Photosynthesis" chart contains a strange perspective effect that makes the arrows almost impossible to sightread.

They sure don't hold back: Some charts, such as Sorceress Elise S6 and S8 as well as every chart for Beethoven Virus starting from S6 include a segment where the players will be challenged to spin. Join The Party CZ as well as Dance Vibrations S14. Hold one arrow in the center the entire time or break your combo. Bee D15 may count too. And at least half the "Another"s, inlcuding Pumptris Quattro Crazy Another (S18). Stretch your legs wide in Wi-Ex Doc-Va D24. Fiesta 2's Passacaglia S17, S19, D18 and D23. Enjoy the seesaw scrolling on the chorus parts. Yeo Rae A S13 on Fiesta 2. Don't even think about doing speed mods, you are forced to play it on 1x speed, regardless of setting. Good luck having magnifying glasses playing it or try to memorize the chart. Super Fantasy S19 and D22. Get ready for flash photography on the chorus where sections of the song may seem to have no arrows, but once that camera clicks, it isn't the photo finish you expect. Oh, and enjoy the wub scrolling as well. Before Routine charts were officially introduced, a few songs in Zero had Another Nightmare charts that required two players to play, such as Love Is A Danger Zone 2. Then there's VV D27 from Infinity. An asskicker chart with 200BPM 24th runs and out-of-nowhere special effects. Some charts are infamous for having stop gimmicks, either for a part of the song or for the entire chart. Examples for the former are Fire and Nobody S15 and Miss S' Story S19, whilst examples for the latter include Uprock, Come to Me, and Love Scenario S17. Pump It Up Prime 2 (1.10) releases Nakakapagpabagabag by Dasu. Most of the step charts consists of the stop-and-go BPM tricks, while abusing various patterns of double-tapping different arrows while holding an arrow. Dasu's other song, 86, would also use this gimmick in the latter's charts. Pump It Up Prime 2 (2.00) releases Twist of Fate. The S19 and D21 charts completely slow down during the chorus at a very difficult to read BPM. Like Yeo Rae A, this speed cannot be modified in any way.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_ac4ac8e5	type	Idiosyncratic Episode Naming
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_ac4ac8e5	comment	Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Song series from the same artists tend to have related titles, especially if the sequels don't use the number 2 (such as "Final Audition 2" and "Overblow 2"). MAX's series of songs spanning Fiesta to Prime all have the word "Got" somewhere in the title: "U Got 2 Know", "We Got 2 Know", "U Got Me Rocking", and "U Got Me Crazy". DM Ashura has a song series named after musical tempo descriptions that all begin with the word "Allegro": "Allegro Con Fuoco", "Allegro Piu Mosso", and "Allegro Furioso". Nato's boss songs are named after Lovecraftian deities from the Cthulhu Mythos: "Yog Sothoth", "Shub Niggurath", "Nyarlathotep", and "Ghroth". SHK's song "Like Me" is a direct sequel to "Follow Me". They both reference ways to keep up with someone's posts in various social media platforms: Following accounts on Twitter or Instagram and liking accounts on Facebook. Doin's song "Cleaner" is a sequel to "Vacuum". Combining the two titles together creates Vacuum Cleaner. KIEN's song "Le Grand Rouge" is a sequel to "Le Grand Bleu" from EZ2DJ. The reasoning is pretty obvious.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_b53077b3	comment	Take That!: The Perplexity 5 mission on NX2 makes fun of Pro; first the title card claims its a "Chopstix/Dance Vibrations" remix — falsely claims "Dance Vibrations" is in the remix (it's actually "Dance All Night"), then it throws out a reference to the "mine arrows" from Hasse Mich (which appear to be Blatant Lies, until you realize its telling you to do the steps on the opposite pad), an exclusive-or section, and other strange gimmicks. "Move That Body" contains the lyric "There's no need for a revolution". The full version of the song also takes another shot at DDR with the lyric "Why settle for 4 when you can have 5?". Pump It Up's "EXCEED" title may be a shot at DDR's "Extreme" name. Fiesta's mission mode features potshots at DanceDanceRevolution with several "Pump Pump Revolution" charts using only the two pairs of adjacent diagonal arrows in the middle of the pad. The noteskin is marked with cardinal directions, which are meant to be played on the aforementioned center arrows on an angle to the left to simulate DDR's arrow placement. "Papasito" on XX has a routine chart that has "L", "R", and "L/R" notes to specify which foot to use, and a ton of shuffling ... much like Konami's Dance Rush.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_c64bdacd	comment	Scoring Points: Most official tournaments use the score you get at the end of the round. Scoring is primarily combo based: once you hit 50 combo, each step is worth more points. Any time you have to hit three or more arrows at once also offers bonuses. Note that unlike DDR, hold notes give multiple Perfect judgments instead of a single one at the end, so holding down those long notes is imperative. Starting from Phoenix, Pump It Up's new scoring system is now out of 1,000,000 points. Analysis from some players has determined that 99.5% of the player's score comes from hit accuracy, while the remaining 0.5% is based on the player's max combo for the run.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: The BGA for "Cannon X.1" is an obvious one to Neon Genesis Evangelion or Final Fantasy. "Adios" from NXA contains references to Star Wars, such as lightsabers and Stormtrooper Expies. Both "Phantom" and "Phantom: Intermezzo" are remixes of the theme from The Phantom of the Opera. The BGA for the latter even adapts the plot of the musical! "Bust Back" from NX featured a doll of a Wonder Woman Expy. Surprisingly, NX2 brought a new version of the BGA which shows the doll dressed as the actual Wonder Woman! The BGA for "Handsome Character That Pass" from NX is a homage to Shoujo genre anime. "Superman" from Fiesta EX goes without saying. A character cosplaying as Batman also appears in the BGA for this song. The Fiesta series' Quest Zone contains multiple missions that parody various other rhythm games. The most well known is Pump Pump Revolution, but it also has Pumko Master, Pu Beat, and PJMAX. The Step 2, 3, and Boss charts for "Twist of Fate" on Prime 2 Quest Zone are a gigantic League of Legends joke relating to the character Twisted Fate: Step 2 has a blue noteskin and scrolls at a high speed Step 3 has a red noteskin and scrolls at 1x speed. In other words, it's slowed. Boss has a yellow noteskin and BPM gimmicks where the chart only moves when notes are hit. In other words, it's stunned. XX revealed the full name of the girl character from Red Snow: Lyra D. Fersen.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_ca87e3ec	comment	No Name Given: Most of the characters in the background animations are unnamed. That said, there are a few notable aversions to this trope: "Get Your Groove On" from Rebirth gives out its protagonists' names as Joe (blond man), Gon (the man in a hat), and Pinky (pink-haired woman). "DJ Otada" from NX Absolute names its protagonists as Hwang or Hwangdong (the Ninja), Hwany (the wizard), and Teddy (the fighter). Their enemies are named as well: the Three Ghosts, Mad Coin, and Fish Man. "K.O.A. - Alice in Wonderworld" from NX Absolute. See Alice Allusion above. "U Got 2 Know" from Fiesta and its sequels - "We Got 2 Know" from Fiesta EX, "U Got Me Rocking" from Fiesta 2 and "U Got Me Crazy" from Prime - feature a group of five heroes: Karate Master Choi, Western Gunner Sun, Grand Magician Zhuge, Super Archery Robin and Sword Master Jeanne. Unfortunately played straight with the head of Mabus Corporation and his Mecha-Mooks, as well as with the fuchsia-haired Greek Chorus character introduced in "We Got 2 Know". Fiesta EX introduced the song "Jonathan's Dream", which has a singular bird in the BGA that is aptly named Jonathan. Jonathan would later become a noteskin in Fiesta 2, as well as make appearances in a more cartoonish art style in "U Got Me Rocking" and "Yeo Rae A". "Elise" from Infinity, crossed over to the main series in Fiesta 2, has four named protagonists: Lilith, Elana, Sara and Elena. In a Freeze-Frame Bonus, "Step" from Prime 2 reveals the name of the character in "Sugar Conspiracy Theory" (from Prime) as Satoko Amami. Some series mascots also have their own official names like Seulki (female mascot from Exceed), Taeyo (male mascot from Exceed), Jiwan (male mascot from NX series), Prima (female) and Primo (male) for Prime, Mari (female) and Mori (male) for Prime 2, (female) Luana for "Phoenix", etc. If you go to the official Pump It Up site, get an AM.Pass and an account and access the Item Shop, you'll find other characters available as avatars and the site itself will reveal their names. These are some examples. The site reveals that the pink-haired girl from Travel to Future is named Arca. The green-haired girl from Rave 'Til the Earth's End is named Lightning Green. The female mascot of the XX game is named MC. Rhyth is the girl from HTTP. There is ANOTHER girl named Jeanne from the series. The other one is the blond-haired angel from Baroque Virus. Switronic has Candy Girl and Princess Choco. The one with black hair and blue eyes is Princess Choco. The two characters from Tantanmen also have names. The panda is Panpan and the girl is Mingming. The red-haired girl from Reality is Miya. The two girls from the front cover of Nemesis from left to right are Aki and Erue. The blue-haired girl from UP & UP is named DENEBOLA. The girl from Moon Light Dance is Mikazuki. The two girls from Cross Time are Rio and Rou. Windmill has the girl named Wonder and the guy named World. The girl from Red Snow is Lyra D Fersen.

Considering that before NX, the Original Tunes category was called the BanYa station and the artist name not mentioned in the title card, it's easy for Andamiro to make this mistake. "80's Pop" by Lipstick from Fiesta is credited as by Energy Present in-game. This error goes as far as the BGA itself. For starters, "Energy Present" is the name of a compilation album in which the song is featured in. Super Stylin`, a crossover song that first appeared in Prime 2, was attributed as an O2Jam song, but actually it's not from O2Jam PC, Analog or even U. It originally came from Pop Stage although it's one of the most well-known songs in the O2Jam series.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_cff53786	comment	Cover Version: Premiere featured several uncredited covers of songs that were popular at the time, such as Marc Anthony's "I Need To Know", Jennifer Lopez's "Let's Get Loud", and a-Ha's "Take On Me". Rebirth also added a cover of Gloria Estefan's "Conga" to the list, and Exceed also brought a cover of Sixpence None the Richer's "Kiss Me", sung by Debbie Scott. In-series example: Crash's "What Do You Really Want?" from Exceed is a cover of Monochrome's song of the same name, which was present in 1st Dance Floor. In turn, that song was originally composed by the late Shin Haechul, the lead singer of the Korean band N.EX.T, some of whose songs were also licensed for the series. "Up Up" from Zero is a cover of Taiwanese singer Jolin Tsai's "Signature Move", a song from her J9 New + Party Featured remix album. "Snow Dream" from NX is a reinterpreted cover of BeautifulDay's "Christmas Memories", a song that was eventually crossed over and remastered by Warak from O2Jam to Prime 2. E-pak-sa's "Young Man" from Extra is a bizarre remix of two of these - "YMCA" by Village People, and "High School Rock and Roll" by Ginbae Yokohama. His song "Monkey Magic," which also debuted in that game, is as well a cover of the song of the same name by Godiego - better known as the opening song for the Japanese live-action series Saiyuki.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	type	Anti-Frustration Features
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	comment	Anti-Frustration Features: A common machine setting in the franchise is "Stage Break". Having it off means that you only fail after you amass a combo of 50 misses (tl;dr you likely Rage Quit) and depleting the lifebar doesn't end the song. However, in this state, clearing a song without depleting the lifebar is known as a "stage pass". Typically, machines are configured to not fail the player on the first stage at all, and have the aforementioned 50 combo behavior on subsequent stages. Recent games turn off Stage Break by default, yet it can only occur on Rank Mode. When you are playing in Basic Mode, Stage Break doesn't even matter, and you actually don't get a game over if you get over than 50 misses. This is likely because Basic Mode is more suited for beginners and inexperienced players. On Fiesta and later, the game restricts some of its functionality if players do not sign in with a profile (on a USB drive, or AM.PASS card on Prime 2 and later), hiding most of the harder difficulties and certain features, and sometimes only giving a small handful of songs to play. Though there is a Cheat Code listed for "Full Mode". Pump Pro 2's routine mode doesn't seem to fail the players at all, even if the health bar goes to zero. Regardless, you get a Game Over if you get a grade of F even in the first stage - if you accumulate an excessively high number of total misses (Higher level nightmare charts can still be passed with over 100 total misses, depending on the song). In case you play a combination of normal-length, REMIX, and / or FULL songs that leave you with only one heart left, you'll be restricted to the Short Cut channel on your last stage, which features half-length (i.e. approximately one minute) songs so that the game doesn't shortchange you. From Fiesta onwards, if the machine is offline or you don't have a USB drive with your authentication data, you can still use a "Full Mode" code to unlock all of the songs and their charts as well as the command window.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_d9ee7048	type	Spin-Off
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_d9ee7048	comment	Spin-Off: The Pro series was intended as a Spiritual Successor to In the Groove, as it has many of the same developers (including Kyle Ward), uses StepMania as its engine, has a course mode with visual distractions, mines, edit mode, etc. It even shares quite a bit of its soundtrack with ITG (some of which allegedly destined for the cancelled ITG 3; including "VVV" by ZiGZaG, the third song in ITG's recurring Vertex series, and "Take Me Back", a vocal version of the name entry music from ITG 2). Since the development team worked with Andamiro, it was quite unlikely the Pro series would fall victim to the same legal action that In The Groove did. Pro got a spiritual successor of its own in Infinity, which is also StepMania based but has a different feel that is both closer to the main series but still distinct. Andamiro and some of the Pump it Up team, including Yahpp, collaborated with another publisher on Drum Live Station, an obscure DrumMania clone whose soundtrack consists primarily of Pump crossovers (including BanYa songs, and covers of K-pop songs from versions of the era). The game borrows many UI elements from NX, and the game uses similar internal hardware to Pump machines of the era.

As part of the franchise's 20th anniversary, Andamiro released two new home versions: Pump It Up H5 for web browsers and Pump It Up M for Android/iOS. So far, these games only contain a selection of original songs from the main arcade series as well as a handful of exclusive songs in the latter.

But the reason why they battle is unknown. Poseidon, has a Boss Battle themed background animation which only uses one or two character graphic(s) with The Ken Burns Effect. However, itâ€™s downplayed thanks to a program which animates a single two-dimensional artwork graphic also known as Live2D and Red-Fox, who helped Linus (the illustrator for this animation) in animating the character he drew.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_e4e86215	type	Fake Difficulty
Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_e4e86215	comment	Fake Difficulty: Two sources here (at least). Most of the charts are designed to be able to use your feet for the whole song. Some have forced hands, where you have to use your hand (or something else) to hit the panels. Prominent examples include Ignition Starts Crazy, Bee Nightmare, Miss's Story Crazy, and Chimera Crazy & Nightmare. A good number of charts don't always use the same constant BPM. Part of playing the chart means to be ready for any gimmick, for you generally aren't told of them before you first play the chart. "Uprock" has a pretty sick rhythm. The only problem is, on Crazy (S17), the arrows also move to this same rhythm. Literally. And "Nobody" in Fiesta 2 as well. "Will-o-The-Wisp" has a flashing squiggly blue and red background in parts of the song. This actually is a Magic Eye trick that can cause phantom arrows to appear in those areas! The timing and whether the arrows appear seems to be randomized. Some Double charts have jumps that require you to hit panels on the opposite sides of the stage at once. Hope you like doing the splits! Some single charts containing 4 diagonal arrow notes at the same time treated as a "jump", intended to be a heel-toe stomp. The problem with this is that this will hurt players who have small feet and/or playing with the older pad styles where the Diagonal up/down distance is larger than feet. For songs made by Norazo, this is usually a instant fail due to a 51-combo hit or miss.

Both songs are available as 2-heart cuts and full songs, with the short version of "Four Seasons" and both versions of "Bad Apple!!" having their respective music videos available. Prime 2 introduced a new "Xross" channel for songs licensed from other rhythm games such as O2Jam and EZ2AC. Notably, in-house artist SHK also composed music for the former; his song "Death Moon" made its PIU debut in this game.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_f711f899	comment	Rank Inflation: From worst to best: F, D, C, B, A, and S. Getting an S (or higher grades) requires not missing. Fiesta added an SS ranking for getting nothing but Perfects (the grades in such games go like this: F, D, C, B, A, S, golden S, and SS). The Pro series uses SS for both Superbs and Perfects. XX changes the scale a bit by making SS achievable with Greats, and all-Perfects now being an SSS. Also, grades now have two flavors: in full color when you get stage pass, and in broken grey with "damage" on it and a distorted Announcer Chatter when your lifebar hits 0 at any point in a stage. That said, the experience of getting any grade is never the same. Plus, it is possible to get broken grades in the Mission Zone. M adds the AA and AAA grades, and the grade system has been slightly modified to be determined based on a player's accuracy rate rather than whether they broke combo or not. As such, the grades from worst to best in the latter game go like this from worst to best: F, D, C, B, A, AA, AAA, S, SS, and SSS. Getting an SSS requires nothing but Perfects, similar to "XX". PHOENIX changes the scale a bit again by making it possible to get a "plus" by the grade (S+, SS+, and SSS+ for example) and like in M, it's determined by a player's accuracy rate. As such, a new plate system is added and is based on the combo (the plates are not shown or given when getting a broken grade): Getting a Rough Game (RG) requires 21 misses or above. Getting a Fair Game (FG) requries no more than 20 misses (between 11 and 20 misses). Getting a Talented Game (TG) requires no more than 10 misses (between 6 and 10 misses). Getting a Marvelous Game (MG) requires no more than 5 misses (between 1 and 5 misses). Getting a Superb Game (SG) requires not missing (similar to the previous games, but in a different way). Getting an Extreme Game (EG) requires not breaking your combo. Getting an Ultimate Game (UG) requires no combo freezes, a.k.a, a full combo. Getting a Perfect Game (PG) requires nothing but Perfects.

Pump It Up (Video Game) / int_fb09db1f	comment	Video-Game Lives: The Hearts system can be perceived as this. Each type of song correlates to a different number of Hearts (1 for Short Cut, 2 for Arcade/Standard, 3 for Remix, and 4 for Full Song), and if you successfully clear a chart (i.e. get an "A" or better) then you will lose one less Heart than how many listednote This does not apply to Short Cuts, you lose one Heart no matter if you pass or fail, else you will lose as many Hearts as listed (for example, clearing a Remix costs you 2 Hearts, but failing it costs you 3 Hearts). Gauntlet Mode in Pro 2 is a 4-song course that limits the amount of misses that you are allowed to get. The number of misses greatly depend on the difficulty of the course. Once the miss count drops to zero, then you automatically fail the course.
