Wow... I never expect you to go "more deep" into the game's code. It seems as though Konami used some code from previous DDR games and integrated it into their newer ones (at least for DDRMAX to EXTREME 2/STRIKE IIRC).

Fortnutately, the debugging/symbol data is laid out (and this may be a "NO SHIT, SHERLOCK!" thing to say, I get that) where a sort of header containing the name of the compiler, and the full file path + file name precedes each function, and is followed by function name, and parameters, with such a header separating each function. For example:
MW MIPS C Compiler E:\usr04534\ddr\usam2\src\CS\lesson\les.c
SetLessonState
level
section
val
MW MIPS C Compiler E:\usr04534\ddr\usam2\src\CS\lesson\les.c
GetLessonState
level
section
Even if the functions are in the same source file.
I am seriously tempted to just copy and paste the leftover debugging data into a program I can throw together, to just strip the excess shit out, and give us the symbols for each game executable, it'd certainly save a load of time (especially with the mixes that have almost a full megabyte of symbol data left in the executable)..

I absolutely wanted to do this, as I really think this info will help with creating a readable disassembly - and help with figuring out how various parts of the game works.
I dunno why, but I wasn't expecting the functions to be sorted so clearly with their parameters, in such a way where I'd imagine I can fit them into place looking in IDA at functions, and their parameters, matching parameter counts (though there would be issues with this approach - what if a function has the sane number of params as another? Of course, then I could also combine this with using PCSX2Dis and stepping through the game / setting breakpoints for the functions I am trying to label to narrow down which function name goes where, etc).

i feel unrealistically powerful finding this stuff
one more thing, i have a question
on the data of most of the sys573 ddr titles, there's this "dat" folder with files labeled "E", "M" and "S"
i want to believe these contain preview/music/step data, respectively, but i can't verify it

Holy shit
HOLY SHIT
Are we looking at some garbled remnant of leftover data? If so then we're looking at tons of unused data lying within the DDR discs.

yeah, that's an unused banner in the 5thMIX AC data
it is the only remnant of presumably an earlier set of graphics for SANA MOLETTE NE ENTE
so far here's a list of things that i currently can/can't do
what i can
* view graphical/announcer/sfx/some text data of the sys573 games
* view graphical/audio/music/text data of the PS1 games
* view music/audio/text data of the PS2 games
what i currently can't (but that is not impossible, as others have done such feats)
* view music/chart/some other text/movie data of the sys573 games
* view chart data of the PS1 games
* view graphical/chart/movie data of the PS2 games

i wonder if those CD tittles you found were for unused songs

There's a possibility
Of the 3 unused CDTitles, i could rule in possible songs for two of them
Dancemania CLUB THE EARTH II - ORDINARY WORLD (considering how the freeze arrows look so poorly placed in the Difficult and Expert charts)
Dancemania SUPER TECHNO - the original NO LIMIT (considering how the "RM Remix" text is so poorly placed in the bg)
Dancemania WINTERS ROCK GROOVE - ?
there's a few lines of text in CARD.DAT in the 5thMIX data which seem to be a "masterlist" of some sorts, even including scrapped songs such as LIVIN' LA VIDA LOCA
it's compressed though, and i don't know a way to decompress it that doesn't require high coding IQ

Since you Mention Livin La Vida Loca, Im also Guessing Your Love would've been represent Super Techno since it appeared in the album (Also hoped Mr. Vain was Once Considered) but for Winters Rock Groove, i have a gut feeling that Love Sensation, Block Rockin Beats, White Lines, Two Tribes (Rob Searle Club mix) and maybe even Unbelievable were possibly considered as they would've been good candidates for a Winters Rock Grooves repOf the 3 unused CDTitles, i could rule in possible songs for two of them

KONAMI delayed Unbelievable's appearance all the way to SuperNOVA2. What a missed opportunity for 5thMIX.

About Dance Dance Revolution Best Of Cool Dancers.
While i can't view its graphical data (the results are very corrupted and messy), i can view text (which could mean i am still missing something for the extraction of the compressed graphics from the raw data). With that in mind, i found three listings with seemingly early difficulty values from different periods of development
Note that i opted to not include listed system bgms and the roulette option

not at @tikal's post this is late but no one said ordinary world was planned for 5th mix
it's a speculation

what i can
* view graphical/announcer/sfx/some text data of the sys573 games
* view graphical/audio/music/text data of the PS1 games
* view music/audio/text data of the PS2 games
what i currently can't (but that is not impossible, as others have done such feats)
* view music/chart/some other text/movie data of the sys573 games
* view chart data of the PS1 games
* view graphical/chart/movie data of the PS2 games
So far, there's tools for the following:
* 573 games: music, graphics, charts.
* Python2 games (Supernova 1 and 2): music, graphics, charts.
* PS1 games: music, graphics.
* PS2 games: music, graphics, charts. This applies to the whole PS2 lineup, from DDRMAX to X2.
* Xbox games: music, graphics, charts.
* DDR PC: Music, graphics.
There isn't a known way to get the following:
* PS1 games: charts
* DDR PC: charts
I personally haven't messed /asked for help with games for the following systems so I can't say for certain what is and isn't obtainable:
- Xbox 360
- PS3
- Wii
- Dreamcast

ok so
about the "dancing stage featuring" series
when i try to extract graphics from that using comptimfinder, most of the time they end up very corrupted
is there a solution to this yet?

I tried the same thing and got the same results. For some reason the PSX version's images came out fine when I did some test runs. Maybe CompTimFinder isn't optimized for the arcade versions...? I suspect CompTimFinder is an old program and hasn't been updated in forever.

altough comptimfinder works perfectly fine with the mainline series?
it just seems to be an issue with the "dancing stage feat" series as no other title seems to produce the same effects (well, Best of Cool Dancers had a similiar issue, but i managed to find a workaround)

So weird. The Dancing Stage featuring... series seems to use different engines from the mainline DDR series.

it's not like a "different engine"
it's more like a "there's lines of garbage data that keep corrupting the graphics"
i tried to do the same workaround i did with Best of Cool Dancers, but it doesn't seem to work here

Not to mention CompTimFinder hasn't been updated in forever so there's that.

The "Dancing Stage Feat... " games were created before the creation of CompTimFinder anyways.

one more thing, i have a question
on the data of most of the sys573 ddr titles, there's this "dat" folder with files labeled "E", "M" and "S"
i want to believe these contain preview/music/step data, respectively, but i can't verify it

The DAT files are the encrypted MP3 of the game.
E: Menu Music
M: Songs' Music
S: Songs' Sample Music
The step data is contained in CARD.DAT.

following this logic, i presume the things in the DATA0 folder in most of the sys573 GF/dm games are also compressed audio
reaching this conclusion, save a little something might have background audio data in the gf8dm7 data (keysound data exists)
so far, i haven't found a working tool to confirm this, though
