** [[https://namu.wiki/w/EZ2AC%20%EC%8B%9C%EB%A6%AC%EC%A6%88?from=EZ2AC Namu]] in Korean.
** There used to be a rudimentary English-language wiki hosted on Miraheze; it only had basic information on each game and fewer pages than the human hand has fingers. Due to inactivity it was automatically deactivated.

* ScrewedByTheLawyers: Creator/{{Konami}}, as mentioned, won a patent lawsuit against Amuseworld over the franchise's major similarities to its own ''VideoGame/{{Beatmania}}'', preventing the production of new cabinets. However, as you may have noticed, the game has managed to survive on software alone. Even the game itself seemed to be acknowledging that this wasn't the end, given that the Engrish on the ''7th Trax Bonus Edition Revision A'' title screen contained the message "[[SequelHook Our passionate spirits are still burning and won't be extinguished forever]]". Oddly, despite the Konami lawsuit, the final few versions of ''[=EZ2AC=]'' and ''REBOOT : R'' manage to get away with implementing early/late note indicators, which [[https://twitter.com/echospherics/status/1276229916195876864 were infamously patented by Konami]], although with some restrictions; this is notable because ''DJMAX Respect'' had such indicators only to remove them due to the patent and ''DJMAX''[='=]s rights owners have previously been sued for similar reasons to Amuseworld.

The arcade version's implementation is based more on how early/late indicators were done in VideoGame/StepMania (and in turn ''VideoGame/InTheGroove 2''), with triangles on either the left or right of the judgement.

** With ''VideoGame/{{DJMAX}}'', though there was overlap in the initial development team of both. What helps is the fact that [=ez2on=] was once aided by Neowiz, as seen in [[https://twitter.com/gloryday_/status/1351089076959637509?s=20 the [=ez2on=] money card for Neowiz PC Game Cafe.]] ''ez2on Reboot:R'', likewise, has some similarities to ''DJMAX Respect'' in terms of its approach, and especially its PC port ''DJMAX Respect V''.
