DDR Extra Mix


The Dance Dance Revolution series started on November 20, 1998 and has grown to a large set of games in the franchise. This list of Dance Dance Revolution games documents every game released to the general public (only), including systems, formats, and regions for which the games were released.

These lists are sorted by platform of release, then region, then best-known release date, then regional or renamed version title, if any. Releases that have sold more than one million copies or have been re-issued as Greatest Hits are colored orange.


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. Screenshots of the game under development were released to video game news sites showing an interface that closely resembled the previous Windows game. Later in development the game was completely changed visually and released on the Microsoft Xbox.

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. 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.

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.

The test build was available to the public early 2000 in Chicago, IL at Konami's former test location Diversions. 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" (Nineball), 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.
