Interesting Little Things in DDR

Centerfold 130 BPM Move it Remix is actually 129 BPM

---

The 1st end credits song for Dancing Stage Fusion (PS2) is a licensed song instead of a Konami Original. It's HEAVEN AND EARTH by POP! , it even shows the video on the top right.

Also! It seems that all the European version show lyrics for their licensed songs

---

The second part of the credits of Dancing Stage Fusion (PS2) has the original version of Silver Platform -I wanna get to your heart- playing in the background. In fact some of the other European CS releases have original/extended versions to popular DDR songs in the closing credits before they were officially released on future games with charts.

---

The background video clips in the North American PS2 version of DDRMAX are actually from the Japanese versions of DDRMAX2. Ditto for US MAX2 and JP Extreme.

Sadly I preferred JP MAX2's videos and scripts but that's just me.

---

In DDR Extreme (JP) CS, when you're on the break stage in endless mode and wait for 30 seconds or so, a song will start playing.

This song was apparently used for both the How To Play screen in DDR 2nd Mix AC and the Information page in the console release of the same game.
I recently found out that the song itself is called "Airport Terminal" and that it was made by Naoki who rehashed samples from 20,november to make it.

Just the PS2 ones. And not SN2.

---

In Step Up 3, two kids are playing what is supposedly a DDR SuperNOVA 2 machine, but the screen actually shows DDR Universe 3 instead.

---

Drew Campbell, also known as DKC Crew, apparently has quite the resumé. According to discogs.com, he was worked with The Lonely Island on their first two albums. One of the tracks he produced for The Lonely Island just happens to be "Threw It On The Ground", one of the trio's most well-known songs.

Guys, might I ask if there's a different full version of Freckles by Tiggy.
Because there's this:

And then there's this. Apparently, I haven't heard the 5th and 6th stanza here.

That is because it isn't the actual full version. It is most likely just an edited version from the Dancemania cut with the proper beginning and ending from the DDR cut...

Most of the tracks, especially KCP Remixes were never released and are exclusive to the dancemania nonstop series.

Oh so that's why every version of the song I've heard had been different.

---

While CAPTAIN JACK (GRANDALE REMIX) was sung by Frankie Gee and Liza De Costa, the song's BG shows Frankie with Maloy instead.

---

The version of Somebody To Love that appears on DDR UNIVERSE is formally known as Somebody To Love (Salt Shaker Remix).

The first 30 or so seconds (that was cut for DDR) is...a quote from Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas?

Taking It To The Sky has no down arrows.

---

There's a lot I could put here...
For now,
SILVER DREAM only has left and right arrows.

---

In DDR 5th Mix, End of the Century has its BPM indicated as 171. This was changed to 170 from DDRMAX2 up to DDR X (along with its single heavy foot rating from 8 to 9, although I doubt the BPM is correct after the change)

In DDR 3rd Mix, all of Butterfly (Upswing Mix)'s single charts end with the up arrow.

I haven't confirmed this with the beginner chart but it doesn't apply to its new heavy chart (featured in DDR 4th Mix Plus, which became a challenge chart in DDR Extreme 2. That chart ends with a left+right arrow.)

---

I remember Riyu Kosaka had songs that have the same melody as to songs present in Konami's Music Games.
One example is glacial, which has the same tune as HYPER EUROBEAT.

I know there's more, but I can't recall the rest.

---

these are things I found out yesterday while playing different mixes.
Dancing Stage ft. Dreams Come True's arrow scrolling is extremely smooth (perhaps smoother than DDR Extreme)
DDR ft. Disney Rave does not have Maniac Charts but there are maniac charts on the playstation versions of the game.
5th mix uses "Konami Original Remix" for every konami original, new and old (so old songs don't use ddr1st - 4th)
also alot of dancemania CD titles are in the game but they were taken out of DDR Extreme and replaced with the generic Dancemania CD title.
As for the Riyu Kosaka songs:
Don't Stop The Music / Can't Stop Fallin' In Love
Glacial / Hyper Eurobeat
Kiss Me / Hysteria
Lifeless / Still In My Heart
Remember You / Remember You
Victory / Crash

I think TyTigeriku should change the first post with all the stuff people have found~

---

I agree and seconded the motion to do so. This way we don't end up repeating half of this stuff.

yea, Its confusing, I don't wanna go through 90+ pages checking everything lol
ionno if anyone has mentioned this but, in Dancing Stage Fever, Afro shows on the left side when you scroll through the menu to "Game mode" and then an interesting version of Lady pops up when you scroll down to workout mode (or another menu~)
she has long red hair (or a red wig) and a crop top (like she wears) and its leopard print. :3
