EDIT: OHOHOHOHOHHHHHH!!!!!!! Another idea for the use of characters! We could have some items be weapons and armors, then implant a whole new "battle system" to put say, Garenzo and irishknight against each other in turn-based fights to show off how many credits we wast... *cough* SPENT on our characters!!!!!! Probably not.

EDIT2: Ooooooooorrrr certain items could be "activated" and they automatically convert an "x" amount of goods or averages (or even boo's and misses) into perfects! For example:

I get 33 perfects on excite bike and 1 good and 1 average. ARGH! HOWEVER after the song, I can open up a special menu, click the item to activate it, then BAM I AAA'd the song. Of course, there would be a new rating called "Item AAA". The name for that is self explanitory, I'm sure.

Please, please, please tell me this was sarcasm?
