Konami's jubeat U'nit Cabinet Adds 120FPS and a Touch Upper Monitor

Konami Arcade Games is showing jubeat U'nit as a playable title, and a hands-on report describes what the new cabinet changes.

The cabinet changes target the parts of jubeat that sit outside the note chart: smoother video on the buttons, touch-driven song selection, and a lit top cube, which suggests Konami is competing on the machine itself as much as on the song list.
