Hmm, I always did figure that there was some form of copy/paste steps from other Trip Machines. I would never have noticed that section though.

What do the first rap song ever recorded (Rapper's Delight by The Sugar Hill Gang) & SP-TRIP MACHINE (JUNGLE MIX) have in common? Not only are they both songs in the DDR series, (Rapper's Delight was in DS Fusion AC & Universe) but they one of the sound samples in the latter of the 2 can be heard in various points of the former. On top of that, Rapper's Delight also samples Good Times by Chic, which was included in Hottest Party 3.

---

I really can't see a connection between Rapper's Delight and Trip Machine (Jungle Mix), but Rapper's Delight and Good Times I definatly see it as well as Another One Bites The Dust and MIB.

I don't know if I am correct with this one, but when playing After the Game of Love on Konamix, it was completely instrumental but hearing it later on has vocals added into it.

Also, Where can I find the original piece of Ubertreffen?

that version known as AFTER THE GAME
while it's true title is AFTER THE GAME OF LOVE, KONAMI censored the song just like what they did to THE EARTH LIGHT or INJECTION OF LOVE (HINA MIX)
however, when DDR S/S+ came out, AFTER THE GAME was change to it true title but it's still instrumental...

edit: instrumental version came out first

Ahh I see what you mean. But what is it with DDR and their sexual innuendoes/references nowadays?

It's actually originally known as AFTER THE GAME OF LOVE (Power Dunkers Version) and it appears on the 4thMIX OST (iirc)

oh KONAMI and their song titles...

DDR Extreme 2 (only released for US PS2) has a mode called Dance Master Mode which is the same thing as DDR Extreme's mission mode, but the last mission in Extreme 2's mission mode is BUTTERFLY (upswing mix) with reverse, 1.5x, boost, and the butterfly noteskin active, all requiring a full combo. I am among just some who've completed this mode (mostly with a controller) . Some missions require at least a AA full combo in order to unlock X songs, but the final mission also gives you 500,000 credits to spend afterwards, but only once. The only things you can really unlock after that are costumes which are close to pointless.

Also, there is a DDR Extreme Arcade cabinet in my area, even though it's imported and bootlegged from Japan.

And also, please answer me this question:
which DDR was the 1st to acquire a song by the artist kors k?

I honestly don't really know the answer, but would really be helpful if I knew better.

---

I believe X2 marks the appearance of kors k, as I don't remember any of his songs or remixes being on older DDR mixes.

---

kors k actually debuted on Universe 3 iirc.

No, actually the song known as AFTER THE GAME is the original version. It's actually taken from NBA POWER DUNKERS 3 (hence why its extended version is known as the Power Dunkers ver.), game for which Yuichi composed music for.

The lyrics and vocals were added later, a similar case with IN THE ZONE.

---

That's correct, as he composed dirty digital, oarfish and Your Angel (with DM Ashura).

---

^ Kosuke just contributed vocals for Your Angel. He later remixed it for his album, though, but that remix isn't in any BEMANI game (yet).

---

which is why IN THE ZONE got the subtitle NPD3 style, despite bearing no resemblance to AFTER THE GAME OF LOVE at all.

btw, NPD3 = NBA Power Dunkers 3.

---

Correction DDR Strike is DDR Extreme 2 in other countries.

Yeah, but they're not the same…

Throw in Dancing Stage MAX then.

---

IIRC, DDR Strike may have only been released in Japan, and also, although DDR Extreme 2, and DDR Strike are the same game, here are some of the differences:
The only thing similar is the engine for Extreme 2 and Strike, but the soundtracks for either game are different. Some only being Asia exclusives, but yes they basically are the same game, but difference in overall soundtrack. Sorry if I missed that.

---

Since the soundtrack is basically the meat of the game, this is like saying that beef steak = fish steak because both of them are steak.
