Guide: Registering New Account & ID for Prime

12:17 PM 2 Comments

For those who do not know how to enable the usage of USB into the PIU Prime machine, here's a guide for how to register for an account and enable the USB to play with your game ID.

Now that Prime is online, it's never the same like registering your USB by plugging directly into the machine to auto registering. Now you can't auto register your ID from the machine, you MUST register in PIU official website. I will show the complete step to register for new account below.

Some of you might wonder if you can bring forward your ID from Fiesta 2 or before to convert into Prime ID. Unfortunately I couldn't find this method in their official website. I guess we can only wait until Andamiro produce the official notes on how to convert Fiesta 2 ID to Prime, or we can't use the Fiesta 2 ID anymore despite how much level we are in Fiesta 2.

I guess it's not surprising if we can't use the Fiesta 2 ID anymore, this is just my assumption anyway. Now the system is totally different. It's really easy to level up now compare to last time. I can level up to 15 within two days with average of 10 games for song level 15 to 17 for each day, without repeating playing songs that I play before. Back to Fiesta 2, level up to 15 take me 2 to 3 months depending how much new songs I'm playing.

Furthermore, there are lots of new features that I guess we can only access through the official sites. This includes the record of our scoring system which is directly recorded online right after we finish playing, provided that your machine is online. We no longer need to use Pumbi to update our score before our level and score is uploaded to the world ranking. As well as many more features like music train, favorites, item shop that are under preparation. I guess we will depending on the official site instead of Pumbi later. So our game ID will be using a total new concept, and it will totally different from before.

Okay, here's the guide to register the new account and enable the use of USB. Do follow each step carefully as all of them are compulsory and (unfortunately) you can't skip any of it.

USB FAQ

The machine couldn't find any prime.bin file in your thumb drive. Please ensure your prime.bin is inside the thumb drive. If you sure that the prime.bin is inside the thumb drive, ensure the prime.bin is not inside any of the folder, and try to remove any other files inside the thumb drive. Leave only prime.bin in it.

Q: When I plugin my USB into the machine, a pink panel message stated "Unregistered Access Code. Press the center step."
The machine couldn't read your prime.bin for some reasons. It's best to remove all files inside the thumb drive, format it, and let your prime.bin file alone in it.

Some thumb drive might not be compatible or readable by the machine. Try using a different thumb drive.

No worries. Just login in the official website and download the prime.bin again. Your playing score and records are all safe and updated in their website every time you finish playing.
