Dance Dance Revolution[edit]

Dance Dance Revolution Solo[edit]

Unreleased games[edit]

Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix[edit]

Released as Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix.

Originally Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix was going to be a Windows title, sequeling Dance Dance Revolution which had been released a couple of years before.^[26] Screenshots of the game under development were released to video game news sites showing an interface that closely resembled the previous Windows game.^[27] Later in development the game was completely changed visually and released on the Microsoft Xbox.^[28]

Dancing Stage SuperNova 2[edit]

This game was never released. Reason: PlayStation 2 and arcade board blacklist issues.

The European arcade release of Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova 2, titled Dancing Stage SuperNova 2, was never shipped due to importation issues surrounding the PlayStation 2-based engine. The arcade release of DDR SuperNova 2 uses an imported Japanese PlayStation 2 to power the game.^[29] The import ban came after the release of Dancing Stage SuperNova, the second Dance Dance Revolution arcade released in Europe to use a PlayStation 2 engine.^[29]

A Dancing Stage SuperNova 2 was released for the European PlayStation 2 directly, but is based on the North American PlayStation 2 release of Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova 2 instead of the arcade.

Dance Dance Revolution Solo (International)[edit]

Only a test build existed in North America; this game never saw a full release outside of Asia.

Dance Dance Revolution Solo Bass Mix had a public test build in early 2000 in the United States at Konami's former test location Diversions in Chicago, IL. It was later replaced with Dance Dance Revolution USA.

Major differences from the Japanese build is the absence of 3 songs: 'That's The Way '98,' 'Together and Forever', and 'Get Off.' The Nonstop Megamix course including these songs were also not present. All other functions and hidden modes were available for play including Maniac mode, Ultimate Maniac mode, Nonstop Megamix, and machine link play.

Dancing Stage Solo is a cancelled video game for Europe. Konami filed to trademark the name on July 9, 1999. It was registered on July 25, 2000, but expired ten years after filing.^[30] This game's Caution screen, high score background and title screen were present as unused game data in the Asian versions of Dance Dance Revolution Solo 2000.^[31]

DDRMAX3 Dance Dance Revolution 8thMix[edit]

Released as Dance Dance Revolution Extreme. However, many images on the Internet represent a long-standing hoax.

Dance Dance Revolution (2014) (North America)[edit]

Only a test build exists, this game never saw a full release in North America.

The test build was available to the public on mid 2015 in select Round 1 and Dave & Buster's shops in the United States. e-Amusement functionality was available. The game was later replaced with Dance Dance Revolution A in the United States and Canada, making it the first Dance Dance Revolution release in USA since Dance Dance Revolution X2 and the first in Canada since Dance Dance Revolution X.

The USA location test of Dance Dance Revolution (2014) removed 22 songs found in the Japanese release:

• DDR (2014): 2 Konami originals from the U.M.U × BEMANI event
• DDR (2013): 6 licenses
• DDR X3: all 10 licenses
• DDR 2ndMix: all 3 Dancemania licenses:
  • 'Bad Girls' by Juliet Roberts
  • 'Boom Boom Dollar (Red Monster Mix)' by King Kong & D. Jungle Girls
  • 'Stomp to My Beat' by JS16
• DDR (1998): 'Kung Fu Fighting' by Bus Stop featuring Carl Douglas

Notes[edit]

1. ^As of 2017, two Canadian arcades imported Dance Dance Revolution X2 from the United States. One is an upgraded Dance Dance Revolution X cabinet, while another is a dedicated X2 cabinet.

• ^Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMix was updated after its initial release with a few new songs and the ability to connect to and play alongside Konami's DJ simulator games, Beatmania IIDX. While the official name of that version of DDR when alone was Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMix Link Version,^[33] when connected to the two Beatmania IIDX cabinets it was compatible with it was referred to by two other unique names.^[34]
• ^ Along with the 'International Versions' of Japan's DDR series, Korea specific versions of Dance Dance Revolution 3rdMix were released with a partly exclusive song list. Some of the Korean songs were later featured in the Japanese and international Dance Dance Revolution 4thMix, as well as the Plus and Solo versions. They have not been used in the DDR series since.^[35]
• ^ Due to a licensing mishap during the launch of Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix, the game was temporarily unavailable to Canadian players,^[36] forcing them to wait for Konami to secure the rights to certain songs and rerelease the game for all of North America.^[37]
• ^ The 'second release' versions of Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova and Dancing Stage SuperNova in North America and Europe were a game disc replacement to fix audio syncing issues with the initial release of the game. Along with bug fixes, the discs added new songs to both versions.^[38]
• ^ As of 2017, two Canadian arcades imported Dance Dance Revolution X2 and one imported Dance Dance Revolution A from the United States.

“StepMania” is a dance pad rhythm game for the computer that's similar to the popular arcade game “Dance Dance Revolution.” It requires a USB dance pad compatible to the 'StepMania' game. Once the USB dance pad is installed, the game needs to be configured to work with the dance pad through the input mapping menu.

Connect the dance pad to one of the USB slots on the computer. Most computers will automatically install the drivers. However, if the dance pad comes with a CD, specialized software may need to be installed.

Use the keyboard arrow keys to navigate to “Options” on the main menu, then press the “Enter” key.

Navigate to “Config Key/Joy” on the “Options” menu and press “Enter.” This will open the “Input Mapping Screen” with a list of commands such as “Left,” “Right,” “Up” and “Down” in the middle column of the screen.

Use the keyboard arrow keys to navigate to a command.

Press 'Enter' to select the command, then press the corresponding arrow button on the dance pad to map the command to the dance pad controller. For example, select the “Left” command on the computer screen, then press the left arrow button on the dance pad. A visual confirmation of the button assignment will appear on screen in the right column.
