I believe this is where we see that SN2 is a complete US port, and they were lying about Cara Mia.

Konami came out with Guitar Freaks & Drum Mania before either of those were ever created. Now I guess they're essentially releasing it under a different title over here, though it's a bit "American-ized". But under no circumstances are Konami ripping off Guitar Hero.

nothing really special with it. It looks kind of boring if you ask me.
That just what I think. I'm sure others will enjoy it though.
Well they can't really do sue the people that made Guitar Hero, and Rockband, because if no one is famliar with it, then how would they know about it? hmmm. Yea.

Just because it's relatively unknown, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. And I'm pretty sure they're not suing Guitar Hero because they gave credit to Guitar Freaks for the original idea.That just what I think. I'm sure others will enjoy it though.

Yes, Guitar Hero's people is paying Konami royalties or something and Rock Band is not. Hence, why they're not being sued.

KONAMI is obliged to protect their patented ideas. That's why there's patents in the first place: to keep other companies from stealing your ideas and using them as your own.
... but there is gonna be a Dancing Stage Winx Club for the Wii...

A special area dedicated to the eternally popular Dancing Stage titles will also be showcasing DancingStage Universe 2 for Xbox 360 and DancingStage SuperNOVA 2 for PlayStation®2.
I guess DS HP2 is a no show this year.... but there is gonna be a Dancing Stage Winx Club for the Wii...

Just figured I would let people here know, my brother is attending the GC, and I've specifically asked him to get some photos, and possibly videos of the DDR games. He's a DDR player himself, not as hardcore anymore as I am, but he's likely to get some info in the end.

I think I spoke too soon:
Games Convention 2008 topic by konami.jp. It lists DDR HOTTEST PARTY, I really don't know what that implies.
