Intro of the game

Sometime in the year 2000, Konami has been teamed up with iNiS corporation, Hands On Entertainment Inc. and Oracion to develop a typing video game based on the beatmania series, it was known as beatmania Da!! (though, many people confused with the PS2 version of the game instead as beatmania Da!! Da!! Da!!). A sequel to this game, known as "beatmania BEST DA!!", was released in the same year, plus a PS2 version based on this game was released in 2002.

The game is based on the beatmania franchise. Similar to the arcade version, but instead it uses the keyboard as a controller for this version. Most of the songs are based on the arcade version, but modified to make it different for the keyboard.

For years, no copies of the game were uploaded/found on the internet, due to Japan's anti-piracy (file sharing) laws. However, a handful of videos about the game were available on the internet.

Update (August 13, 2016)

A trial version of beatmania Da!! has been found.
