- This video can be shown on any Dance Dance Revolution (2013) cabinet via hacking. It is displayed in the background of the MOVIE background dance stage's black variant and is not full-screen.

- Its original DDRMAX video is shown when MAX 300 is played from the DDR SELECTION folder, and it eliminates all on-screen dancers.
- According to Naoki Maeda, "MAX 300 was a pretty crazy song in several meanings. I personally meant it to be a challenge for the players, but as I learned more players were surpassing it by the day, I thought I had to stop making high-BPM songs since I was "defeated," but I didn't learn my lesson and kept making more of them around 300 BPM, heh." [1]
- MAX 300 was in consideration by Ryu☆ to be added to REFLEC BEAT groovin'!! Upper's BEMANI MUSIC FOCUS event as part of his set [2].
