Back to 1998, when Konami released Dance Dance Revolution on the arcades, japanese gamers was truly shocked with this new genre of games and Japan was quickly taken by the DDR fever. Andamiro, a Korean software company, produce the Pump It Up series of arcade machines. Pump It Up is an arcade that appears from nowhere and quickly became very popular for those who play that kind of machines. This is an update of the series with 23 new songs, a new rule, some exclusive modes and various hits from the others pump's. This FAQ is related of the Extra version of the Pump It UP: EXTRA 2 - - UPDATES Version 0.8 - The first version (July 24, 2003). Version 0.9 - First update (September 21, 2003). Fixed many things, like the speed of the songs, name of the songs and grammar mistakes. Sadly, I don't even play Pump anymore so updates will became more and more sparse. Version 1.0 - Some clean up and a new e-mail. 3 - - COMMANDS / HOW TO PLAY A) Commands This FAQ is based if you know the basic rules of this kind of games and this section is only for explaining the basic of the PUMP pad setup. _____ _____ _____ _____ / 7 / / 9 // 7 / / 9 / /____/____/____//____/____/____/ / 5 / / 5 / ____ /____/____ _____/____/____ / 1 / / 3 // 1 / / 3 / /____/ /____//____/ /____/ OK, this is a basic layout of the pads on pump it up (well, not really....), the 7 and 9 are red pads and 1 and 3 are blue pads. The middle pad is yellow and have 2 foots on it. B) How to play Each arrow that appears on the screen has a similar design on the game pad (RED, BLUE, and YELLOW). You must follow up the arrows on the screen and press the pad on the exact time that it reaches the designed place. The arrows are synchronized with the music that is playing, so you will know when to press it. Pump it up: EXTRA has a new rule, exclusive to this version that is the HOLD rule. Basically it's a big arrow that you have to have to keep pressing the respective pad until that big arrow fades out. 4 - - PLAY MODES A) Configuration In Pump It Up: EXTRA there are some modes of gameplay exclusives to this machine; some of it is traditional in dance machines. After the How to Play screen: DOUBLE - REMIX / \ EXTRA HARD \ / NORMAL SONGS --- SONGS --- SONGS The mode select and the song select will appear on the same screen, the real advantage of it is that you can change modes between songs, unlike the other Pump games that you stick with one mode until the end of the game. There is no restriction by changing modes between songs, even if you only choose the NON-STOP REMIX modes. B) Selecting the modes To change the modes, step on the 7 or 9 buttons, to change the songs press the 1 and 3 buttons. To select a song, press the 5 button twice (just one to preview the song). The battle mode will appear only if 2 players are selected. C) Game modes NORMAL (Beginners step) The normal is the easiest mode available, with songs with a difficulty ranging of 1 to 6 circles. And so, this is the best mode for beginners. There are only a few cool songs, and steps are very low on freestyling technique. But everyone must start with something, right? Keep practicing. HARD (Professional step) On this mode, things get more difficult. The easiest songs in this mode can match the hardest songs on normal. More techniques will be utilized. And many songs will be exclusive on this mode. Difficulty ranging to 3 to 10 circles. DOUBLE (Twinrole step) The greatest mode on every dance game is the Double play mode. You will play with the 2 sides of the pads. Much more music, great freestyling technique and skill will be used by who plays this mode. The first times that you play this mode can cause confusion (and some light injuries too....^_^) but the glory of being a crowd-pleaser is rewarding enough. Difficulty ranging to 3 to 10. For freestylers, this is the mode to get down..... NONSTOP REMIX (Ultimate step) This mode consists of some songs that are full versions, or remix that combine 2 or even 3 songs. Of course, the duration of these songs is far greater than the normal songs (mostly 2:30 of the remix songs for the 1:30 of the normal songs). And so, you will be very tired before the song is over if you're not used to it. On Pump: Extra, you can play 3 (or 4 depending if you get the bonus stage) songs in the nonstop remix mode unlike the others Pump's that you only can play twice the nonstop songs. EXTRA EXPERT The Extra Expert mode is a mode exclusive on the Pump: Extra, it is similar to the Crazy mode, only that there is double versions of the songs. Some songs are exclusive of the Extra Expert (including the secret ones). BATTLE (Showdown step) Battle mode is a 2-player mode only that wins who have the better ratings on the end of 3 songs. All codes are possible within the battle mode. The battle mode did not explode, but you can't get the bonus song. 5 - - RATING / RESULTS / BONUS STAGE A ) The rating system The rating system for this game is Konami standard. There are 5 grades that you can get on the game: PERFECT, GREAT, GOOD, BAD, MISS. Perfect and great count for the combo system, but the GOOD grade will stop the freeze the combo but not interrupt it. BAD and MISS will cause the gauge to drop. For the hold rule, if you make the move for the step right, you will receive a perfect until the arrow fades that can vary to 6 to 15 perfects, so it's essential to a good score to practice the hold rule. B ) End stage result / Game over On the end of the stage, you will get a result for your performance. The result will be a grade that can be S, A, B, C, D and F (theoretically exists the E grade, but no one saw that...^_^). If you get any grade except F, you cleared the stage. If you grade is F, you get a stage failed and the game is over. S and A - " Yeah, I know U can" B - " OK, It's a Boo" C - " Hey, we need a B" D - " Oh, god......" F - " Hey, why you just get up and dance, man?" The conditions of the game over can be configured by the arcade setup. There is 2 ways to get a game over: Stage failed - Your grade was insufficient to clear the stage but you finished the song (Grade F). "Explode" - The game ends if the dance gauge drops to 0 and you can't even finish the song. The best condition is that only the bonus stage "explode", but the others don't. The worst condition is that the first stage "explodes". OBS: The Battle mode will last for 3 songs, even if both players fail a stage. C ) Bonus Stage The game has 3 stages on all modes, and depending of your final grade you can get a BONUS STAGE!!!!!!, that's right one free music for you play IF you can get a certain results on all 3 stages. The conditions for the bonus stage are below. Every mode - A or S on all stages. So, how can I get an S and A grade? S - All grades must be Perfect or Great, OR just only one good grade but with high combo and perfect percentage ( more than 85% of the total score). A - Must be less than 5% MISS of the total score. On the 2 players mode, the conditions to get the bonus stage are the same, but the best result of the 2 players is what the counts for the bonus. Example - Player 1 Player 2 First stage - S A Second stage - B A Third stage - A F On this example, they get the bonus stage. If any of the 2 players play the game alone they won't have earned the bonus stage. I don't know if the conditions of the bonus stage can be configured by the arcade setup, but is almost certain that is. NOTE : The BATTLE mode doesn't have a bonus stage. 6 - - SONG LIST / COMMENTS The song list will change with the mode selected. The list consists with only one song, to cycle to another songs use the 1 and 3 buttons. The new songs are on the right side of the list; the old songs list is on the left side of the list. The song list on this FAQ is divided on main songs and remixes songs. The remix songs is, obviously, only available on the remix mode. For each music, there is the name of the music, the composer, the modes available to play with the difficulty of that mode, and his BPM (beats per minute) that tells if the song is fast or not. This song list is arranged like the game. DOUBLE LET´S GO LOVE / LAZENCA, SAVE US WHAT U WANT/ TEMPTATION PEOPLE CREW / BLIND FAITH BIG MONEY/ PIERROT WAYO WAYO / E.

The song is good, much like Block rocking beats. EXTRAVAGANZA Song by : Banya Modes : Extra Expert (Level 3) BPM : 195 Similar to DDR Paranoia, this is a fast, merciless song that will test your limits. On difficulty side, only loses to Mr. Larpus.

TURKEY MARCH Song by : Banya Modes : Hard (7), Double (7), Extra Expert (Level 2) BPM : 150 This song can be the divisor line of good players to players that take pump seriously.

ANOTHER TRUTH Song by : Novasonic Modes : Normal (3), Hard (5), Double (5) BPM : 136 Everyone seems to like this song. But is a great music to practice jumping. On the hard mode 80% of the song is jumping. Mr. LARPUS Song by : Banya Modes : Normal (6), Hard (10), Double (10), Extra Expert (Level 4) BPM : 190 The hardest song on every mode. This is a frustrating music that will push you to the limit of the insanity, but you will be back for more sooner or later. You start saying " Mark my words, this time I beat this sucker " and so, 2 minutes later you are tired, sweating and shouting "this is &¨%$$% impossible" with the need to breaking the machine. FIRST LOVE Song by : Banya Modes : Normal (2), Double (4) BPM : 106 This music suffers of the "Run to you" syndrome that other songs also suffer. First love is a VERY cool song that is ignored because is too easy and without things to do. Yeah, try this on Crazy.....^_^ MU HON (the samurai song) Song by : Banya Modes : Normal (5), Hard (8), Double (8) BPM : 136 If the difficulty scares you, you're wasting a chance to impress your friends. This japanese-themed song is easier than it seems. Still hard, but not impossible.

With this tricks a whole new level of gameplay will open for you. The tricks should be made with the correct order to work. 2X arrow speed - 79795 (Great when beginning on hard) 4X arrow speed - 79795 8X arrow speed - 79795 No arrows - 79579579 (Only if you truly knows a LOT the song) Sudden - 55975135 (It makes the game harder) Random - 51535957 Vanish - 55795315 (The beat will fade as it's going up) Rush - 791379135 (the song will be 20% faster) Mirror - 55159357 (For doing a song looking at the crowd) Union - 13573159 (A 2-players double - Double Mode ONLY) Syncho - 55797955 (The 2 players will have the same steps - 2 players ONLY) Anti-syncro - 55131355 (The 2 players have mirrored steps - 2 players ONLY) Disable trick - 13131313 (Takes off any code that you put on) B) EXTRA CODES These codes won't change the way the game is played, but make some visual changes to the arrow. Boring, if you ask me, but there are some people that use it just for themes reasons, like using the Christmas arrows on the Wayo Wayo song. Christmas arrows - 19191975 Toilet arrows - 19191995 UFO arrows - 19191915 Cards arrows - 19191935 Pinaples arrows - 37373775 Sea creatures arrows - 37373715 C) SECRET SONGS I am, Holiday and Can Can are only available if you do this combination: I AM - Score A or S on the FIRST STAGE, using an EXTRA EXPERT SONG. I am will appear between Final Audition and Loner. HOLIDAY - Score A or S on the SECOND STAGE, using an EXTRA EXPERT SONG. Holiday will appear between Final Audition and Loner. CAN CAN - Score A or S on the 3 stages, and the last one MUST be an EXTRA EXPERT SONG. Can Can will appear between Final Audition and Loner. The easiest way to do that is playing OUR UNFORGETTABLE on double, if you have good double skills, will be piece of cake score an A (even I can do that, and so you can it too, I'm sure of it...^_^). Other song that is humanly possible to score A is: Cho Ryun - New world mix (single), Chicken wing (single or double) or Loner (single). And, before you ask me: YES, I've seen some people score A on EVERY extra expert song (even Holiday and Slam). But were talking about humanly possible, right? Not that silly boys and girls that plays pump every single day. And NO, there is no code, way or dipswitch to keep the secret songs on the game list forever. When the EXTRA machine arrived in my arcade, some people thought that if you cleared any secret song with an A they'd keep in the song list. Done that, nothing. Then they thought that if you cleared any secret song with an S they'd keep in the song list. Done that, same result. Then they thought that if you cleared EVERY secret song with an S ON THE SAME CREDIT they'd keep in the song list. GO TO HELL. I you want to play the secret songs, score A fool.. ^_^ 8 - - EXTRA / GENERAL RAMBLINGS This is the place that I will post general comments by everyone that wish to contribute.
