Interesting Little Things in DDR

in the intro to DDR 3rd mix, I recall there being a line that flashed underneath 'Dance Dance Revolution' that said 'you can play Let's enjyoi!', around the time the female goes "can you feel it?" I know of this because an arcade I go to has DS EuroMix 1, and that's pretty much 3rd Mix with shitty licenses that I've not played once because they're impossible to enjyoi...

yep, it's in Comic Sans too

it's in comic sans? holy shit it didn't notice that what the fuck konami you can't use comic sans unironically

---

they used comic sans for R3's banner too (and another song i can't recall atm)

---

i know a lot of early DDR interfaces use comic sans

---

like a good handful of tiger YAMATO songs use comic sans unless it's something "exclusive" found from a CS title

I'm pretty sure Paranoia, and all other 1st Mix songs, didn't get Maniac double charts until 4th Mix. Maniac double debuted in 3rd Mix, but the 2nd Mix mode wasn't mixed with the rest of the songs like 3rd ReMix mode on 3rd Mix CS, and even on 3rd Mix CS they don't have Maniac double charts. So by the time Paranoia got a Maniac double chart, there were several 9s and even 9s on double before it.

This can be seen in other mixes as well. DDR Max US has no Heavy double charts for the Club Version songs. You can select Heavy and it will say Heavy, but it's just the Standard (Another) chart from Club Version. Same for Cutie Chaser (Morning Mix) from Oha Sta. Same for Konamix and the Club Version songs it features. None of the Club Version songs got Heavy double charts until Extreme AC.

If time starts at the first step and ends at the last, GAMBOL is only 56 seconds long. I believe this is the shortest DDR chart in history, but I'm not certain. Any other songs you can think of that last under a minute?

---

E-Motion? Thats a pretty short song.

---

If your metric is first-to-last step, 5.1.1. is 57 seconds long. It also has the lowest number of steps in an Expert chart.

---

The time between e-motion's first step and last step is 58 seconds. I never knew a song of such short length was on EXTREME. That would've been handy when I kept trying to get to the Extra Stage many years ago...

---

E-motion is 58 Seconds long just for an interesting note... o_O


That song is very hard to time though.

---

Gotta love comic sans! XD

In the morning.



In the evening



In the night

I wonder if all of them having the same background design has to do with how they were each originally STEP BATTLE-only songs. Or maybe they were just lazy.

A Japan ver of DDR PS3 was going to be relases but cancelled for unknown reasons. (Profits and investments I assume)



In fact, there were pop up books that featured 3 liscenes from the DDR PS3 game although it showed X2 artwork.
So even if there was a japan version of the 2010 game, the liscenes (some) were going to be same. :/



Also there were 2 more DDR games for the iOS, but cancelled due to DDR S.
Naoki though B4U would've been B2U in his opinion.

more recycled graphics:

You gotta admit though, Its a good graphic cover.

What DDR version was that A Brighter Day jacket used for? It doesn't look like X2's jacket.
