An Old collaboration in BEMANI: Dreams Come True and True Kiss Destination

During the early years of BEMANI, Konami had a collaboration with J-POP bands DREAMS COME TRUE and True Kiss Destination. Konami made a spin off beatmania and Dancing Stage to showcase their songs in the arcades. A commercial of Dancing Stage feat. TKD for PlayStation here. Sadly, I haven't seen these in our local game centers years ago, but able to get the PlayStation port.

Interestingly, the Dancing Stage brand is originally for European market of DanceDanceRevolution, but they used it just for this collaboration, another is the Dancing Stage DISNEY'S RAVE.

Another interesting feature in the PlayStation port of Dancing Stage feat. DREAMS COME TRUE, The Greatest Hits Mode, where you able to swap disc using the DREAMS COME TRUE GREATEST HITS "THE SOUL" album and play some songs available by swapping discs.

Since then, they never had a collaboration with them or with other J-POP bands. Instead, they had a collaboration with Nintendo, DDR MARIOMIX for Nintendo's GameCube. Disney has started 

Sukiya's first Philippine store

Sukiya's first store in the Philippines. Opened last November 2021 in Glorietta 2 Mall in Makati City. It offers Gyudon as its main dish. Price range is affordable and the ambiance is somewhat similar to stores in Japan. Unfortunately, I wasn't able take photos inside as many customers are coming in for Lunch. It seems that Yoshinoya will have a new challenger for Gyudon rice bowl in the Philippines.

Please check their Facebook page for more information.

A high table in Sukiya. Good thing that they adopted the call button.

I ordered a Large Yakiniku bowl with fries and Miso soup with drink.
