Contrary to its name, Dancing Stage Max is roughly the European equivalent to America's Dance Dance Revolution Extreme2.

Unused Graphics

At the time of this game's release, Konami reorganized its arcade and console subsidiaries, unifying everything under the Konami brand. As such, this screen for the former Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo branch is not used:

Touch & Step

These graphics are leftovers from DDR FESTIVAL.

Stage Counter

The stage counter splash screen's assets are still there, even if such a screen no longer appears.

The unused Freeze! judgement would make its last appearance in Dancing Stage titles here. Farewell, sweet prince.

Unused Sounds

Hmmm...
To do:
Doublecheck "Special Stage".

There are some announcer files, stored in DATA/SD.BIN, that go unused, as listed below:

Audio Transcript Comment
"Select Difficulty" As there is no difficulty selection menu in this game, these voice lines go unused.
"Beginner's Mode"
"Light Mode"
"Standard Mode"
"Heavy Mode"
"This mode is difficult!"
"First Stage" As there is no stage count splash screen, these voice lines are not used.
"Second Stage"
"Third Stage"
"Fourth Stage"
"Final Stage"
"Extra Stage"
"Special Stage"
