* CommonKnowledge: The game is commonly believed to have had its online services terminated in July 2018. This is only true of cabinets outside of Japan, which received an update that prevents the game from starting up if it is connected to the internet. The misconception comes from the cessation of content updates, sale of offline kits, and sale of conversion kits to ''VideoGame/BishiBashi Channel'', however there are still a few arcades in Japan that run the game online, and the player can still access their play data for the game on the [=eAmusement=] website. The lack of popularity that the game has in rhythm game circles (compared to the likes of ''VideoGame/SoundVoltex'', ''VideoGame/DanceDanceRevolution'', and ''VideoGame/{{CHUNITHM}}'') further contributes to the misassumption.

* SequelDifficultyDrop: ''1+1/2'' no longer has a LifeMeter but replaced with a pass/fail system that requires a player to score 700,000 points. Despite that, you can play all three songs even you fail your first two.



** Ironically, this was also the first non-Konami game that the aforementioned "BRAIN POWER" reappeared on.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: The game has had several updates in an attempt to draw in interested players:
** A major update after the original game was released tweaks lane colors so that they have better contrast and aren't as grating on the eyes. Additionally, options were added to toggle lane curvature and layout, so one could just play with curveless flat lanes rather than the curved W-shaped lane layout that the game is infamous for.
** ''MÚSECA 1 + 1/2'' simplifies Grafica elements and introduces a "pure" mode in which Graficas don't affect gameplay at all. For those who still care about Graficas, there's a "mission" mode where their effects come into play and where Grafica are unlocked directly instead of having to buy them through an [[RandomNumberGod RNG]]-dependent feature.
