Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMix (ダンスダンスレボリューションセカンドミックス Dansu Dansu Reboryūshon SekandoMikkusu?), sometimes abbreviated as 2ndMix (セカンドミックス SecandoMikkusu?), is the second game in the Dance Dance Revolution series of music video games. It was released as an arcade game by Konami on January 29, 1999. Although only officially released in Japan, arcade units exist worldwide. It has a total of 38 songs: 11 from the original Dance Dance Revolution arcade game and 27 all-new songs.
The core gameplay and scoring system of 2ndMix is the same as the previous version of Dance Dance Revolution.
The arrows in 2ndMix do not have different color-cycles based on their time signature. The "Vivid" arrow colors familiar to players of later mixes were not introduced until the club versions.
Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMix Link Version (ダンスダンスレボリューションセカンドミックスリンクバージョン Dansu Dansu Reboryūshon SecandoMikkusu Rinku Bājon?), released on April 21, 1999, introduced the ability for players to save high scores and play custom step edits using their PlayStation memory cards. A player would first need to format the memory card with "Link Data" using the home version of 2ndMix, and then insert the card into one of two slots on the front of the arcade cabinet. Link Version includes 5 new songs, in addition to the full 2ndMix song list. After the release of Link Version, Link Data features had been implemented in every future DDR version until Dance Dance Revolution SuperNOVA (which was originally said to contain support for PlayStation 2 memory cards, but the functionality was removed), which has new network support over e-Amusement for saving statistics and unlocks.
