Interesting Little Things in DDR

Wow, as recycling goes, that's quite an out-there way. And a quite brilliant one too.

Also in Pro Evolution Soccer 4's Practice mode, the BGM contains remixes of PARANOiA and Wild Rush.

There are bits and pieces of it throughout the song, but it really becomes apparent at around 1:00.

Secret Rendez-vous

Kind Lady had three slightly different S- stepcharts depending on which game you're playing.

Also, some S- charts from Ultramix 1 were redone for DDR FESTIVAL. Some of those were also redone for SuperNOVA AC.

And a second Double/Expert chart in ULTRAMIX.

DDR ULTRAMIX 3's title music is a remix of Freezepop's "Science Genius Girl".

"Spin the disc" was originally menu music in the first DanceManiaX.

Funk Boogie is the only (?) song to have an X-rated chart rated higher than the chart.

9?

(There is Paranoia D- and Stars [Retuned by HAL] S- but I'm talking about .)

Dunno if it counts, but Parodius Portable (PSP) had one of the songs changed for.... Brilliant2U

^^ The first stage of Jikkyo Oshaberi Parodius was a remix of That's the way (I like it), and got changed to Brillant2U.

There used to be a video of it on Nicovideo.

DDR Party Collection had only 5 new songs, 2 from Naoki, 3 from Sota. Sota wins even further when you see that the 2 Naoki tracks are actually by BeForU and TERRA. On the subject, DDR Party Collection was a CD game, not a DVD.

As well as DDRMAX JP.

On this note, GORGEOUS 2012's is rated higher than

DON'T CLOCK ME on the American DDR EXTREME is rated a 4 for both Double/Standard and Double/Heavy even though the Heavy chart is much harder (They simply cut and paste the step data from Double/Standard since that song has never had Double/Heavy steps before and forgot to update the difficulty grade).

Move Your Feet on the American DDR EXTREME contains the song's official music video in which Junior gives players the finger while jumping up and down. There are also two segments of the video seen on EXTREME which do not exist in the full version (Two dancing stick figures towards the end).

CAN'T STOP FALLING IN LOVE (SPEED MIX) from DDR 5thMIX is titled CAN'T STOP FALLING IN LOVE (VENTURA MIX) on certain Dancemania Speed albums.

LITTLE BOY (BOY ON BOY MIX) is actually a typo. The song is called LITTLE BOY (BOY OH BOY MIX). When questioned about it, Captain Jack himself said he had no idea why Konami made that mistake or why they never fixed it (The song was later featured on the console version of 7thMIX, the arcade version of DDR EXTREME with the same error despite having other typos and errors for other songs fixed).

The background image for IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT features a hexagonal PlayStation with two CD trays.

BABY LON is the only dancing character in DDR that never ages (He has been two years old for 10 years running).

In DDRMAX2 USA, the only song with all difficulties is KAKUMEI.

Actually, who made the mistake first was Dancemania: CAPTAIN'S BEST - BEST HITS AND NEW SONGS -

The Mission and LITTLE BOY's maxi single had the title right, though.

Gotcha. CJ was still referring to Konami, IIRC.

Well, talking about typos, another classic is the artist for MORE THAN I NEEDED TO KNOW in DDRMAX2. It's mentioned as SCOOTH, while it's really SCOOCH.

In the arcade data for DDR Solo 2000 there are some interesting things:

- Title screen image for "Dancing Stage Solo", and the following content in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish: Warning Screen, How to Play, Multi Play system, "Join Anytime", even button explanations. Did that game even exist?
- An alternate banner for the Nineball feat. Atomicgun&Julia version of Together and Forever.
- An alternate background for Wild Rush








Yeah, even the Bemani logo had been translated, of course. "Sound" Simulation?

i just remember the Song "MY FIRE" from the first mix, the banner doesn't show any subtitle....same with Have your never been mallow
(MY FIRE -UKS REMIX- and HAVE YOUR NEVER BEEN MALLOW -KCP MIX-)
the same thing happen with Nonstop Megamix Songs...

The notorious mix and revival 2001 remix of Theme from Enter the Dragon are the exact same song.

---

It was always the same song in the series, just got renamed is all. I can't remember which subtitle the Dancemania series used... it might have been the latter.

Bit off-topic:
Speaking of that, has anyone ripped the BGM of SuperNOVA CS? Stellar Master Mode has some pretty good songs.

Yes, the SOLO machines can link-up. I wonder if there's a video of the gameplay...

Some of the Steller Master Mode tracks are remixes of Konami Originals. I remember identifying 1998 from one of them.
