Pop'n Music 4 Append Disc (Playstation) Secrets FAQ and Track List Written by: Ari Margo (Gamefaqs: Kythlyn) Version : 1.03 Copyright 2004 Ari Margo This is a free document that is not intended for commercial use. It is free to be distributed FREELY. It may NOT be used to make money in ANY FORM. I give my permission for this document to be modified and improved upon in a tasteful manner as long as my name remains on the document. Most of the information contained here was either discovered directly from the game or obtained via one of Konami's Japanese websites translated through Altavista's Babelfish. I created this to spare other Pop'n fans the trouble of deciphering poorly translated Engrish since no other FAQs were available for this game at the time of writing. This FAQ was NOT designed to be very in depth. It is merely to give importers enough information to get the most out of the game. If you need more in depth information about the Pop'n Music series in general, there are very detailed FAQs for other games in the series already available at GAMEFAQS. Enjoy.

Contact Information --------------------- --------------------- SECTION 1: TRACK LIST --------------------- --------------------- The list below contains all the songs in the game. It does NOT provide the real names of the songs, but the name that you will see when selecting stages, which represents the genre of the music. Before you begin play, go into the options menu and change SELECT to SHORT CUT. This will replace the normal Pop'n Music 4 menu screens with a much more simplified version. It is unfortunate that we won't be able to enjoy those graphics, but it is important because in this mode the stage selection screen is in English instead of Japanese. Songs with marked with an * are not available by default and must be unlocked (see secrets section). In addition, there are specific requirements to play the more challenging HYPER versions of the songs (once again, see the secrets section).

HOW TO UNLOCK SECRET SONGS VIA TIME RELEASE ---------------------------------------------- There are 8 Secret Songs in Pop'n Music 4. In order to unlock them permanently in Arcade Mode, they must be time released. There is no other way to permanently unlock them in Arcade Mode. In order to time release the songs, you must play Arcade Mode. FREE MODE WILL NOT ADVANCE THE TIMER! The only time the timer advances is when you are actually playing a song. Navigating the menus does not count. Watching the staff roll does not count. Only actual gameplay counts. Once enough time has elapsed, the secret songs will start becoming available in Stage 3. Time Release List: BRITPOP : 2 Hours HORROR : 2 Hours 30 Minutes POPS M-Mix : 3 Hours J-TEKNO M-Mix : 3 Hours 30 Minutes DANCE M-Mix : 4 Hours BONUS TRACK M-Mix : 4 Hours 30 Minutes SPECIAL ENDING : 5 Hours CLASSIC 4 : 5 Hours 30 Minutes ---------------------------------------------- 2. HOW TO UNLOCK SECRET SONGS VIA SECRET CODES ---------------------------------------------- There are also 2 methods of temporarily unlocking all of the songs. One is through secret codes, and the other is by meeting specific requirements. When you unlock the songs in this manner, they will only be available for 1 game in arcade mode, and then they will once again be locked. However, if you do chose to play the song when it is unlocked, it will be permanently available in FREE MODE, whether or not you pass or fail the song. Please remember though that free mode will not progress the time release timer to unlock the songs in Arcade Mode. Because I have not been able to find an accurate translation of the challenge requirements, I will not attempt to include them here because there's no point in publishing potentially bad info. If you don't feel like doing them (as some of them are VERY difficult), don't feel bad about doing the secret codes instead. They serve the exact same purpose and are there to spare you from the challenges. The secret codes must be performed on the Title Screen where you would choose a mode. Hold down SELECT and then enter the code. If you are successful you will hear a sound effect. Then when you play in Arcade Mode, the song will be available one time only in Stage 3.

High Speed ------------- If you want the notes to scroll down the screen faster, such as a High Speed mode in a Beatmania game, then after selecting ARCADE MODE, hold down the select button. You can then select between QUICK (High Speed 1) and TURBO (High Speed 2) using the Blue Buttons. -------------- 4. Hyper Songs -------------- In order to play Hyper Songs, you must first play every song in the game at least once. It does not matter if you pass or fail. Then, if a hyper version is a available, while picking a stage, hold down the select button while choosing. The following songs have Hyper versions: COQUETTISH PASSION BOOGIE KARAOKE OKINAWA NUDY PRELUDE CLASSIC 4 ------------------ 5. Instant Give-up ------------------ If for whatever reason you decide that you want to quit playing a song before it is over, just press start and select. ------------------ ------------------ SECTION 3: Closing ------------------ ------------------ ---------------------- 1.
