omgggg Those first two are super fun to play. Four songs all at once is really nice, just hope they don't cost too much, and that the wait will now become shorter/more in line with FT Arcade's song arrivals!

What's the source for this? I see some buzz about Future Tone in Chinese and Thai, but nothing on Weekly Diva Station or the usual sites that cover magazine leaks.

Yeah, I had to look it up because I couldn't find anything on the usual sources, but this picture has been shown on a Nicovideo stream

It's possible the season pass thing was a mistranslation though and they only meant that a pack containing all the September additions will also be available, rather than buying things piecemeal.
Either way I guess we'll know more soon.

Yes, you would be correct. These buttons are not designed to be easily re-arranged like the large arcade controller.

Just opened my controller. This thing is nice looking. Was expecting something much much smaller since it was called a "mini-controller" haha, not that I'm complaining!
Also, holy cow at Play Asia's shipping speed. It was shipped yesterday from overseas, and I got it this morning in the US at like 9:30am.

Awww yeah. Day 1.
Been messing around with the Assign feature for a while now and still haven't been able to set it to the third button scheme option. The light starts blinking after holding the button down for 5 seconds, but stops after I hit anything else and the original button settings remains in effect. Anyone else been successful?

How does it feel???? I want to order one still if it's available, but I need some reviews first before I throw that much money at a peripheral.

Controller feels really great and solid. Thought it would be hard to get used to after using the DualShock4 for so long, but it only took a couple songs to get the hang of where things were. Feels very satisfying hitting big buttons for some reason. And the dreaded simultaneous notes and holds I am having a much easier time with.
Of note is the fact that the buttons are dome-shaped so they are raised up from the base. Really neat. Here are some pics, and also a size comparison to the Hori Rap4 controller.
I didn't figure out exactly how it's supposed to work, but I did find a way to get things (sort of) set.
Edited this post out, as my info was way off base, and Uncle Dukey has a perfect guide on the next page

So as soon as someone figures out exactly how the layout switch works, I really suggest that people playing Future Tone adopt one of the arcade layouts, with the controls in a horizontal line. After only a slight adjustment period, I found the layout makes a lot more sense than it seems to at first glance, especially knowing that the chords use visual cues tied to the layout in a way that doesn't work for the traditional Dualshock layout at all. Finding out that chords are physically spaced to match the arcade controls was a huge revelation to me.
I also made a horribly awkward video demonstrating what I've found to work thus far, don't like self-advertising, but I think showing may come across more helpful than text. That and after how much time I wasted trying to figure it out, if I can help any random person out in some way I'll feel okay.
I took camera lessons from The Hunger Games and the SHAKY CAM

Well, that's the controller the layouts have been designed for so it totally makes sense
I quickly gave up trying to play Future Tone with a Dualshock, I can't wait to receive my controller!
SEGA posted a video for new songs for Project Diva Arcade. We're getting:
-LOL -Lots of Laugh- (Mirai Version)
-Hand In Hand
Looking forward for the DLC in September, I need Shake It so badly.

Yesss, so looking forward to AgeAge Again! Hopefully Riria's in the next batch of DLC. Have they stated what their plans for DLC are? As in, how long are they going to support PS4 FT alongside Diva Arcade? Would we be getting LOL and Hand in Hand at some point even though they've only just been announced?
Hopefully the pricing's reasonable, since there's only four songs.

That's the idea. Been looking forward to finally being able to become proficient using the Project Diva Arcade layout.
Man, the controller is tempting... but I already have enough useless plastic in this house. I'm thinking of buying a CronousMax converter (as they apparently work with any DirectInput device) and seeing if I can jury-rig a Dao SVSE5 to work as I think it would work really well... and would also save some money (and space!). Just curious how well the sticks mapped to spinners would work -- I imagine there may be some problems on longer swipes when it rolls over from 1023 to 0 (and vise verse). Worst case I'll have to muck about with the firmware a bit.
Agreed. Really glad we're getting updated with any songs they add to the cabinet version. Really looking forward to playing Shake It!, LOL, and anything Mitchie M, as soon as possible. The Future Tone PVs for these songs are absolutely gorgeous.

Is Skeleton Orchestra in this game? I can't find it but I don't know if I just skipped over it.
Also, AgeAge Again is fantastic and I'm super excited for it. Now just get me Reverse Rainbow and I'll be set!

Hope this makes it to the PS4 version eventually. Also thank goodness LOL is the Mirai version.
Skeleton Orchestra was just added/is coming soon to the Arcade Version. Nothing for Reverse Rainbow that I know of yet, but I guess it is only a matter of time the way things are going.

It was recently added to the arcade machine but isn't in the home console version yet. It will most likely be part of the second DLC pack.

Cool - thanks!!
I'd like know this too. I literally decided in the last hour to bite the bullet and order one, and they're all gone !!!

That's a marketplace seller (with significant markup, at that). Amazon themselves, as well as many other stores have been presold out for months. It's way, way too late to get on this train; physical controllers aren't such a hot commodity that they can make significantly more than what is needed to cover preorders, so you really have to get in early if you want one.
StarCreator

None of the Amazons share login data. You'd have to make a new account. But again, this is a marketplace seller that doesn't allow international shipments anyway, so if you really want to go this route, you'll have to get a shipping deputy like Tenso to receive it and reship it for you.
Another place would be Yahoo auction, it is cheaper but you would have to trust the seller.

What would it cost to buy it there and have it shipped here?
I want a controller but can't read JP so I'm not sure HOW to work it. Of course, if Play-Asia or AmiAmi will get them back in stock, I can just wait it out.

High-Def Digest - 4.5/5
Despite some minor issues, 'Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X' is a lovingly produced, beautiful, and extremely fun rhythm game that stands as possibly the best on both PS4 and Vita so far. For those who haven't experienced the series before, there's no better time to jump in, and for those who have, this is one of the most refined takes on the formula to date. (PS4 NA version)

Yahoo Auction have a proxy called buyee like Tenso. so you can read more at their website

Of coz, you can always ask amiami and playasia first, may be they do re-stock later

Anyone ever buy from this place? Personally never heard of them but would put money down to order this new controller asap .

Haven't ordered from them personally but I know many people who do. They're fine.
This really has nothing to do with Future Tone. We have an import OT for DIVA X and a new OT should be showing up in the next few days.

Thanks. Put my order in asap. Was planning on getting this a little later but looking at the availability, can't afford that luxury. Wish Hori would sell a limited amount to the U.S. market.

This is the best I can find. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Official-Mi...452679?hash=item4b053d54c7:g:T7QAAOSwV0RXuu1j
It's actually slightly cheaper than what I paid for mine with shipping.

You're awesome - thank you. Purchased!
I totally didn't need this, but worst case, it appears as though these things appreciate in value if I decide one day to dump it. But with Diva X coming out in the US in a few days, I'll have my hands full.
How does this controller handle the slide notes? Do you have to use the little nubs? Also, is the controller lapable or do I need to get some sort of adjustable table to play on?
By default, the analogue sticks are for the slide notes. You can easily use this controller laying on your lap or on a flat surface. But that's all personal preference. Whatever works for you.

Speaking from prior experience with the first mini controller, You can definitely play on your lap, though, I had a much better experience with a table, as the controller did not rock back and forth in my lap.

Region 2 Japan Vita cartridge save data is compatible with Region 1 US PS4 disc, as long as you playing in same account.
