DanceDanceRevolution (AC) (Japan)

Please don't take any insults I make to heart. This is the internet after all.

X3 has loads of new content -and- Dancemania revivals. There's no reason why there can't be both.

Remember, it's gotten to the point where an installment of DDR must now do EXACTLY what a fan says or else it is immediately a terrible mix

Thanks pie for pointing that out and excuse me while I hang my head in shame :p

On a related note we are a tough fan base to please, however we should all be happy that DDR is still alive and kicking. I'm sure most of us just want the surprises and excitement the last two arcade mixes have brought us.

Hope we won't get Bieber licenses from DDR II.

also




If we won't get any new western licenses this would mean the game won't be released on North America, like DDR X3 VS 2nd Mix.

---

Watch Bieber be the Encore Extra Stage that has to be PFC'd.
[/just kidding]

I seriously want to make a betting table to see what things people are betting on will or will not appear during the loc test, or if they want to go all or nothing, when the game is released.

ZIv, the next best thing to poker :v

On-topic now: It's killing me to know if they are literally rebooting the series (again) or they may just slap in DDR X4. If a reboot, I'm curious to find out what things they will try and put into this game that could be considered "new" and what they take out. Hell, I'm just curious how this game is going to turn out like the rest of you guys.

If X4, we can probably expect something in-between X2 and X3 with unlocking content and maybe a good chance for a cool, brand new ES system.

They should license music from Dancemania Party the promote its release in August! Or better yet, some upcoming Dancemania release!

Though actually, though should partner with EMI again, and use licenses from, and promote album likes V.I.P. IX, EDM, and EDM2. Some good, very appropriate DDR tracks there, with appeal to a global audience.

DDR STAFF BLOG revealed some details about tomorrow's location test:

It is also mentioned that in this location test some licenses have been removed as they finalise the licenses for the game.

Expectations lowered.

same. :/

inb4 VS 3rdMIX speculations lel


well upgrade cabs doesn't have this option anyway so
(also I like how Up+Down closes the current category since X2)


getting some of the latest CS jives I see. FC is not quite a bragging right anymore lol
I wonder how this will affect scoring and battery lives?

---

GOODs on DDR I (Wii) and II still gave 0 points. (Not so on PS3.)

Since apparently they follow Wii closely so I guess that's the case. (the only thing not following Wii is NYE's jacket lel)

---

Are they still releasing Wii Games even if Wii U's out?

While Goods continuing combo is not a crippling change (though will make EES easier) provided they keep scoring the same, I worry that they're looking to the CS games for ideas, which they should definitely not do.

I wonder if EES will become GFC or better; since they've shown they can do special requirements like the PFC for LOVE IS THE POWER -Re:born-, they can specify GFC's as well.

---

How would we know this?

I'm sure it'd be possible anyway seeing as Konami was releasing PS2 games from SuperNOVA-X2 even when the PS3 came out.

Probably. Most other consoles do for a couple years after the predecessor, so there should be no reason why not with the Wii, espcially considering how many units the Wii shifted.

---

I guess a blue full combo could be considered a "sub full combo" of sorts. It's not something I would've put in the game, but its not terrible I guess...
