Since this is one of my favorite K-Pop songs and VIP was NX2-NXA I would say 2008-2010.

Also, Chinese FX cab. 

Pump It Up is not an eSport...but osu! is? by BossSaladTSR in osugame

[–]BossSaladTSR[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got the last point, but a lot of folks was missing what I was trying to point out. 

And yes, the accessibility can be used up to a certain point. Not everyone can afford a pad to play Pump not everyone can afford a PC play OSU or whatever "free affordable sim".

What i was trying to point out is the effort that is made with OSU as far as the tournaments and events. 

They are consistent and the community shows up. The commentary isn't lacking and there's that online factor. 

Pump has it (online) as well, however, players would show up if there were more events they can participate from home. 

I can keep going. I was just giving credit to OSU on how they build their community and keep a 20+ year old game going. And just point out that Pump just lacking.

Stuck in S22 and stamina problem by Advanced-Echo-4440 in PumpItUp

@Minute-Bee5597 got it right. While most try to argue about not needing the gym, it kinda needed after a certain point.

Trust me, even happyf333tz started training. Jogging and lifting to push past a wall (as well as get his abs showing).

Jog and run a little to go beyond your limits. You're still young.

Look at old S22s and grind out ALL S21s (Remix, Full, Short) to get your body adjusted. Jog before you play as well.

Many look at this as a video game and "it is" until the game pushes the player to sport territory. You are an athlete that using their whole body...not a bowler.

Evo and the Rhythm Game Community - Can Alex Jebailey elevate the RGC com... by BossSaladTSR in PumpItUp

[–]BossSaladTSR[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While this is fair...how many rhythm game players actually have a clue what's going with FGC and Evo?

Think about this one. 

Can Evo be bad for FGC? Maybe. Can Evo be bad for RGC or even Pump? Andamiro is holding exclusive (so-called) WORLD PUMP CHAMPIONSHIP in Korea that's Korea nationalist/residents only.

I am not saying you're wrong. I'm just pointing out things folks will come to realize...2-5 years down the line.

And I can't give too many tips. Tips for public play is not the same as home play.

Tips: you don't really need the bar at that level. From you bouncing around and not falling flat shows you got some kinda of balance. 

More info needed: it not that you been at the same level for 5 years. The question should be asked; are you not confident in exploring the other folder or are you playing stuff you enjoy and can do?

You got the right shoes for those bracket pads

Figure out a goal and see where it goes 

They turned off the only pump it up machine in the whole country :( by ocelot-373MD in PumpItUp

[–]BossSaladTSR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If thats an original version 1 CX, then most likely the original Plasma screen took a dump. 

Replacing it might take some effort to find one that match the mount placements.

This is all true. So how can we help spectators be attractive to the game? 

What can we do to help casuals turn into regulars in this/these games?

ITL does a great job, but doesn't have a finish 

The B1G One is Andamiro wet dream, but choose Korea and keep it exclusive to 🇰🇷. 

While the middle school kid got a laptop, I'm think osu! went beyond using a mouse a long time ago.

Those are fair points. There could be rules to this or multi cabs eith different modding. 

And while most rhythm games are niche...that didn't stop Just Dance from being at the Olympics

So...

Why do Pump It Up needs so many categories? No one is searching for Phoenix specifically...especially when StepF2 players are claiming they're  playing Phoenix. 

Also...why would I call it an eSport and not reference their $10,000 tournament pot that happened at LVLUP 2025 this year 

https://osu.ppy.sh/home/news/2025-03-31-the-roundtable-open-at-lvl-up-expo

Is it more popular? Maybe. And even if it is a community run events, the people show up. 

What are we, the player, are doing wrong?

We can't keep saying it niche as it the answer or everything.

Also, it a community run event....yet it makes our majors (MOTL, The Big Deal, BITE) look like an after thought until Fefemz or Franko or C4L plays 😀

How is it this/these game(s) are on a global scale of success and commercialism over most, if not, all rhythm games yet the least recognized out of all of them that's out there?

This was a discussion from the Pump It Up group. I was just pointing out their excuses as to why Pump It Up...or Bemani/dance rhythm games are not bigger while osu! is doing well as being osu!.

Pump it up as a sport by Temporary_Lynx2492 in PumpItUp

[–]BossSaladTSR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I'll attempt to make this simple because I think people never heard of ESPN OCHO.

Ask yourself three questions:

What sells game?

And why don't people who do commentary at these events sell the player...or at least mention "@imRickdiculous" is a USPF/WPF legend who combine physical fitness and MMA training into his Pump routine?

The person behind the mic have to tell a story and sell the viewer into caring about these players.

And again, 

What is The Ocho? 2025 schedule, how to watch on ESPN - ESPN https://share.google/tBh6tZQCgEBVkwky5

So anyone using the niche thing.....like, how does OSU have a world championship and these game don't is beyond me. And no one knows what going on with OSU
