DrumMania
Another game in Konami's Bemani series. The controller is a set of electronic drums made by Yamaha, and probably the most authentic game in the series next to Keyboardmania. Links to Guitar Freaks and used to link to Keyboardmania.
Keyboardmania
Another game in Konami's Bemani series. Cancelled at 3rd Mix. The controller used is a two-octave Yamaha keyboard for each player, witch a pitch lever on the left or right side. Not as hard as Beatmania IIDX, but still a lot of fun. Links to Guitar Freaks and Drummania up through Guitar Freaks 6/Drummania 5.

Pop'n Music
Another game in Konami's Bemani series. Rather than actually simulate a real instrument, the controller is a total of 9 round bubble-shaped buttons. Capable of inflicting damage upon the player as they play the game, but probably the best game in the series. Extremely popular in Japan, but almost completely nonexistent in North America.

Guitar Freaks
A game in Konami's Bemani series in which you use a controller that looks like a guitar to make music. The controller has three buttons and a pick-thing on it. Also links to DrumMania and used to link to Keyboardmania.
"I played Guitar Freaks a few times, got frustrated because I could never figure out how to hold the controller right, and returned to failing songs on DrumMania."
