Differences

There is a new "Tempo Line" in the game, with a sped up tempo and different graphics which was not in the GBA version.
This is the first game in the series to have better sound quality. The second would be Rhythm Heaven Fever and so on.
You could only play a certain amount of games before you would need to insert more money.

Trivia

The pictures surrounding the cabinet show the characters with their GBA appearances, not their Arcade Exclusive Tempo Line graphics.
