Wondering what this is?

Look at the first picture there. Says something about DDR right next to a 3DS??? Could Aaron or someone
else tell us what it says?

Well, it seems this DDR game will also be a social game (Like the upcoming DDR game for smartphones in Feb 2012). Since its in the 3DS section, I'm guessing it is for the 3DS. I wonder how will that work.

That would be pretty awesome if they are making a DDR game for the 3DS.

I'm skeptic of the source material. Everything that's happened with the 3DS (poor launch, price drop, no 2nd circle pad) would lead Nintendo away from making any new 3DS models at least for a few more years.

I'd personally prefer a REFLEC BEAT game for the 3DS, seeing as they're both touch based. (Then again, there is no multitouch, so maybe REFLEC BEAT lite?)

not necessarily gonna be on the 3ds, the final fantasy game above it was announced for mobiles

It's talking about the social DDR game for smartphones that is set to come out next month.

The DDR one is the "Dance Dance Revolution" Social game/platform for Smartphones, for which the contents are released and downloadable (according to that article) "From this Spring"

The Final Fantasy one above that is different from the Theatrhythm game for the 3DS: (Yes, I know, Final Fantasy Rhythm Game)

There is a site for Final Fantasy Brigade but there is no real content on it yet:

DDR X is quickly becoming as overused as 4thMIX.

"Album art style" song selection would be awkwardly designed on an iPhone, though, and X is the most recent mix without it.

More games with downloadable content? I'm still waiting for those 67 other songs on DDR2010.

I won't mind the theme as long as Konami updates the horrid DDR S+ engine. If the TapMania team can make a smooth engine for iPhones then Konami definitely can.

You have to realize, though, that the TapMania team cares how well their engine runs enough to go back and tweak it.

But not enough to keep developing it for iOS.

Sorry, thought you meant Tapulous.

They're probably not developing for iOS because that requires approval from Apple.

They already have approval from Apple; TapMania is in the App Store.

They even said that in your link.

I'm pretty sure they actually said that there are certain limitations to the software that were imposed by Apple.

Right. What they wanted to do wasn't going to be approved, so they gave up. For something like that I imagine they wanted access to the file system in a way that made Apple say "nuh uh".
