* beatmaniaIIDX
* beatmania3 (legit "The Final")
* DanceManiaX (legit "2nd Mix: Append J-Paradise")

Do you play any real instruments?

MonMotha:
Used to play the saxophone (bari, mostly, also some tenor) and, eventually (kinda) the bass clarinet.  Pretty firmly high-school level, but I would say I was at least competent.  It's been about a decade since I set it down for the last time, though.  I could (and still can, to some degree) read sheet music.
Howard_Casto:
Hey aren't they trying to revive guitar hero this fall?  I can't wait to buy more plastic instruments I have no hope of storing.  :D
MonMotha:
I've heard rumors of that.  I may still have a guitar hero controller somewhere.  I wouldn't be able to play anything remotely approaching new, though.  Those tend to be console-only, and the newest console I have is a PS2.

I never really liked Guitar Hero.  The game mechanics were fine, and it has some nifty things that make it more "realistic" than Guitar Freaks (which is VERY much a "game" and actually plays quite differently than Guitar Hero), but I never liked the forced 3D note scroll that only took up some tiny fraction of the screen.  Sound Voltex (a comparatively new arcade game from Konami, Japan/Korea/maybe China only, like most of the BEMANI titles) has a similar note scroll and, while I find it a fun game, I still don't like the note scroll style.

I've got a number of console controllers for all of those games from before I acquired the actual cabinets.  Most of them are the standard consumer ones, but I have a full-size (ASC) pop'n music controller.  Considering I still don't have a pop'n music cabinet (I should get one, some time since the game is awesome) I guess that was a reasonable acquisition back in the day.  Let's just say that the console controllers are way easier to store than the whole arcade games.  Those things are HUGE compared to a typical upright.
