* The Chinese version does not support Aime cards; the cab has no Aime reader. Instead, to login, players must use "passport IDs" given by the game when "registering", and enter the ID and password when logging in, using a UI similar to the one used when entering the player name.
* Chinese release of [[maimai:1st|maimai]], but with some some differences:
* Almost everything in version 1.00 has been translated into Chinese. This includes the names of note types and judgments, which are usually kept in English (which [[maimai DX:1st/China|舞萌DX]] did 7 years later). The only untranslated thing is the [https://emojipedia.org/white-flower/ 💮] icon.
** Cabinets are slightly wider than other maimai cabinets (location test cabinets were about the same as Japanese/Asian ones).
** Song titles in English or Katakana English are in English instead of Chinese.
** It does not use Aime cards. To login, players must use passport IDs given by the game when registering and entering the ID and password when logging in, with an interface similar to the one used when entering your name.
** However, songs added in versions 1.01 and 1.02 have their titles and artists in English, same as the Asian version.
** Five new exclusive Chinese avex Trax licenses were added in their own folder, "Chinese pop songs" (中国流行乐). An icon is added for the new C-pop genre, awarded for clearing all songs on any difficulty in the genre, similar to other genre icons.
* The Chinese version has 5 exclusive Chinese pop songs, in a new "Chinese pop songs" (中国流行乐) genre. All 5 singers were under the management of Avex at the time. The songs were not available on any other versions of maimai.
** JOYPOLIS songs are in the ORIGINAL genre.
** An icon is added for the new C-pop genre, awarded for clearing all songs on any difficulty in the genre, the same with other genre icons.
** It's mostly in Chinese, including the names of note types and judgments, which are usually kept in English (which [[maimai DX:1st (China)|舞萌DX]] did seven years later). The only untranslated thing is the [https://emojipedia.org/white-flower/ 💮] icon.
* The camera recording feature still exists, but the recorded footage is only stored locally, and played randomly when in attract mode. There is no way for the player to obtain the footage.
*** All song titles are in English instead of Chinese.
* The game program stayed at the first game while updates added songs from PLUS and GreeN. This creates some inconvenience:
*** Songs added in versions 1.01 and 1.02 have their titles and artists in English, like the Asian releases.
** This potentially makes it harder to deal with these newer charts, as the speed is still limited to 1~5, and the star rotation option is absent.
* Later updates added songs from [[maimai:PLUS|maimai PLUS]] and the day one songs of [[maimai:GreeN|maimai GreeN]] (minus unlocks). Unfortunately, this leads to limitations and drawbacks with the older hardware:
** Speed is still limited to 1-5, and the star rotation option is absent, making it harder to play some charts.
** Level 11 charts in GreeN are still labeled as Level 10, probably due to program limitations.

** While ver 1.01 brought difficulty changes mirroring that in maimai PLUS, ver 1.02 did not bring any difficulty changes for existing songs.

* [[39]] and [[Senbonzakura|千本桜]] are absent. An official [https://img.atwikiimg.com/www53.atwiki.jp/maimaicn/attach/24/3/45236.jpg Weibo post] suggested political sensitivities as the reason for the latter's absence, but the absence of [[39]] wasn't explained.

* 舞萌 cabinets are slightly wider than other maimai cabinets. However, at the initial location test, they were of similar size.
