Every Extend Extra (PlayStation Portable)

Prototype Info Prerelease Info

Unused Graphics#

Early Menu Graphics#

Inside of TITLE.TPK in the Japanese release only is a set of three graphics that could have been from a very early version of the game. According to the labels at the end of the .gim files, they were converted between October 12 and 13, 2005.

tes_title01

tes_title02

tes_title03

There are also two graphics exclusive to the Japanese release which are never seen.

e3mn_bg_star1

e3mn_bg_star2

Demo Leftovers#

Between the skins' graphic packages is a graphic that is a leftover from demo versions of the game.

Unused Sounds#

The following sounds can be found within SOUND\WAVE.

Common to Most Files#

charge.wav A sound that plays when charging up the explosion to the limit. This is a remnant from an early build of the game.

p_exp.wav A drum-like sound which is supposed to play when the player gets hit. This is a remnant from an early build of the game.

suikomi2.wav The title roughly translates to "Suction", so it may have been meant for a scrapped concept where either the player attracted the enemies or viceversa.

suidame.wav The title roughly translates to "Suck in", so it could have been used when the player or an enemy have been sucked.

e3.wav

A text to speech voice saying "Every Extend". Could have possibly been meant for the game's title screen.

SE_MON.TPK (Boss Rush/VS)#

Because minibosses don't appear in Boss Rush or in VS mode, these sounds are never heard normally. While a miniboss actually appears in the Demo, which plays when waiting long enough on the title screen, it doesn't play any sound when it shows up or is defeated.

Tojyou1.wav

Tojyou2.wav

Tojyou3.wav

1_mid_boss.wav

SE_PIN.TPK (Classic Stages)#

To do: This might be actually the max-charge explosion sound. Check in other drives if a sound with this filename is available as well and corresponds to that action.

boss_exp2.wav A sound related to a boss. It sounds similar to the one that plays when the aircraft explodes automatically after reaching max charge.

Move_nXX
These sounds would normally play whenever the player is charging up an explosion. This action isn't possible in the Classic stages, however, as the aircraft explodes immediately.

Move_n01.wav

Move_n02.wav

Move_n03.wav

Move_n04.wav

SE_FEE.TPK and SE_MAI.TPK (Stage α)#

As with the Classic stages, these two files also contain boss_exp2.wav sounds.

Exclusive to SE_MAI.TPK#

The Japanese drive has also some extra sounds that would have effectively replaced some of the text-to-speech voicelines with an actual voiceover.
{|class="wikitable" !Filename !Sound !Notes |- |quicken | |Used when collecting pink items |- |timextended | |Used when collecting yellow items |- |getready | |Used when the first aircraft is deployed |- |gameover | |Used when the last aircraft explodes without spawning a new one |}

Unused Drive#

The file SE_SON1.TPK contains a soundpack which isn't used by any of the drives present in the game as these are remnants from an early build. Only the sounds which they never show up in the game are labeled here.

The following sounds are recycled:

• BeautifulMove1/2/3/4.w, BeautifulBakuha., and BeautifulHassha. are recycled from Melatonin Drive.
• toujou1/2/3.wav and rest_alarm.wav are recycled from Big Bang Drive.
• ene01/02/03/04/05/06/07/08/09.wav are recycled from Saturday Night Drive.

While SE_SON2.TPK and SE_SON3.TPK also exist, the former is a duplicate of SE_SON1.TPK, and the latter is used for Nostalgia Drive.

MENU_SE (Main Menu)#

Nyoki.wav Found within the main menu sound effects file. The name is an onomatopoeia of "appearing" so it could have been either related to a notification when something is unlocked or a generic pop-up.

Unused Music#

The following sounds can be found within the folder SOUND.

ES1#

In this folder, there are two files of segment music which are never heard in the game, BA01_03_1.TPK and BA01_03_2.TPK respectively. They are part of the music that plays on the Demo, Boss Rush, and VS mode. A folder called MOD also has the files represented as segments of the song, but the two on ES1 appear to be unique, as they're absent in MOD.

BA01_03_1.TPK\Loop03_8s_1.wav

BA01_03_1.TPK\Loop03_8s_2.wav

SYS#

This folder contains a singular file, labeled SELECT.TPK, which contains a track used in an early build of the game. It is worth noting that this file is dated October 13, 2005, a whole six months before all other sound files.

SELECT.TPK\SELECT.wav

TIT#

An unused folder which contains two files, labeled BA01_01.TPK and BA01_02.TPK. Curiously, their contents are segments of the song Bird by USCUS, which would later be repurposed for the PlayStation Portable release of Gunpey.

BA01_01.TPK\BirdLoop_00.wav

BA01_01.TPK\BirdLoop_01.wav

ES2#

An unused folder which contains seemingly complete music data. Given the name, the calm nature of the song and the fact that it loops only when Loop20 ends and Loop01 starts, it could have been an earlier version of the Demo track.

Regional Differences#

Overall#

• The American and European releases feature a demo of Lumines II, accessible from the title screen.

Gameplay#

• When collecting a Quicken item, a "GET QUICKEN" text is displayed in the Japanese version, which was changed to just "QUICKEN" in other releases.
• The sound played when collecting a Time Extension item is different in the original Japanese release.

• The total ranking names are different between languages:

Stage α#

Stage α, which can be accessed by going in the lowest and furthest section of the branch path, is different in the original Japanese release compared to the others.

The Japanese version's Stage α is titled MAIAHI Drive, and appropriately features a remix of Dragostea Din Tei by qp. The bullets and the stage's boss, IeI, are also themed after the song's "Maiahi, Maiahu, Maiaha, Maiaha-ha" section. Perhaps due to licensing issues, this skin was completely replaced in other releases, now being titled DUB Drive and featuring an original song, You can feel it by USCUS. The bullets and the stage's boss, SquallteT, now feature a skull motif.
