Transfer issues on players’ chests

Hi there, it’s Uchida.

Half of February has already passed.
Although it’s still in the middle of winter, the season is now gradually moving toward spring.
Around the time of the arrival of the warm season, ‘THAT’ will be finally released.
“Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3DX PLUS”, which is of interest to all of you!!
Although I’m in the position of creating the game, I’m truly looking forward to its release to play at game arcades.


Well, in this issue, I’ll talk about the information of interest to you.
Yes, it’s about
“Card Data Transfer.”

Main question straight away. “Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3DX PLUS” can transfer card data from the previous game series “Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3DX”!
……Well, somehow, long title names are hard to separate and understand. In short,
“Wangan Maxi 3DX+” can transfer card data from the previous “Wangan Maxi 3DX”!

As for a transferrable card type,
only a card currently being used in “Wangan Maxi 3DX” can be transferred.
The following cards cannot be transferred:
Present cards of “Wangan Maxi 3DX”
Discarded vehicle cards of “Wangan Maxi 3DX”　
Used cards of “Wangan Maxi 3DX”

I don’t think there are many, but the cards issued in location tests before Wangan Maxi 3DX release or the AOU show cannot be transferred either (they are categorized as cards which cannot be used).

Are you following me without any problem so far?
Now I’ll inform you about the contents to be transferred at a blast.

■ Contents to be transferred without any changes
  ▪ Card name
  ▪ Car type (The body color obtained during the card update is also transferred without any changes.)
  ▪ Level (A4, C9, etc.)
  ▪ Story Mode completion status (the number of consecutive victories as well)
  ▪ Horse power (825HP/DG, 600HP/B, etc.)
  ▪ The number of battles and outruns in Ghost Versus Battle Mode
  ▪ The number of maxi coins obtained
  ▪ Dress-up status (Obtained dress-up parts are also transferred without any changes)
  ▪10 Outrun Mode completion status
  ▪ The number of battles and outruns in VS Player Mode
  ▪ Mileage
  ▪ Racing Meter or Special Meter (only if you own one)
  ▪ Wangan R BGM, Wangan Maxi 1&2 BGM (only if you own one)

■ Contents to be changed based on conditions
  ▪ Unbeaten/Beaten in Story Mode　
All treated as “Unbeaten.”
  ▪ Dress-up level
      When dress-up level is 46 or lower, it is transferred as is.
      When dress-up level is 47 or higher, the levels are all transferred as 46.

■ Contents NOT to be transferred
  ▪ Title (You will start from “Wangan Beginner”)
  ▪ Time Attack Mode record

YOU! Yes you over there who’s thinking, “Well, I’ll wait and see how Wangan Maxi 3DX+ will go until its release.”　
Story Mode and Dress-up will be transferred, so don’t worry about anything and continue to play Wangan Maxi 3DX!!
For your information, all the data will be transferred as Unbeaten (card printing part will be changed from ● to ○). So, if you are thinking, “I want a Special Meter!!!!,” you should proceed with Story Mode to Episode 99. Then, you should complete Episode 100 at the same time the series is changed over to Wangan Maxi 3DX+ to get the Special Meter!
(The conditions to get a Special Meter in Wangan Maxi 3DX+ are the same as Wangan Maxi 3DX.)







And, there is more to add.
In this series,
the data from Wangan Maxi 3, the previous series of Wangan Maxi 3DX, can be transferred to Wangan Maxi 3DX+!
In this series, direct data transfer skipping one whole generation is available.
The transferrable card type from Wangan Maxi 3 is:
Card currently being used in Wangan Maxi 3.

The following cards cannot be transferred:
Discarded vehicle cards of Wangan Maxi 3
Used cards of Wangan Maxi 3
Also, cards from Wangan Maxi 2 or earlier series cannot be transferred.

■ Contents NOT to be transferred
  ▪ Title (You will start from “Wangan Beginner”)
  ▪ Time Attack Mode record
As for Story Mode, the transferrable contents are the same as the case from Wangan Maxi 3 to Wangan Maxi 3DX.
If you have a Wangan Maxi 3 card, which you are not using at present, you must transfer it during this time and then use it.



We designed the card data transfer this time under the concept that players can enjoy Wangan Maxi for a long time. We feel that there are some parts for which we may have pushed the boat out a little too far. But providing more items as extra will be better won’t it!



Well, I'll finish up here this time.
See you around.
