List of DDR games

(copied from Talk:Dance Dance Revolution)

I created List of Dance Dance Revolution games, and replaced the Releases section with a link to it. This decreases the article size by about 5kb. I'm planning on adding much of the details from the old table as sub-bullets on the list. I also still need to link many of the titles on the list.

The release dates were obtained from several sources: the old Release table, the individual DDR articles, the Japanese DDR article, the KLOV, MobyGames, All Game Guide, DDRers' Stompin' Ground (with help from SysTran), and the DDRUK Songlist Project. In case of conflicting dates from different sources, I used the release date that was listed on more sites, or reduced the date accuracy (e.g. March 2001 instead of March 21, 2001).

I added Dance Dance Revolution: Super Nova to the North American section per the annoucement on DDR Freak. I put a release date of unknown since we don't know, but it's probably going to be 2006 as they're talking about location testing already. Lightdarkness 21:19, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

I do not think DDR Supernova should be included in the list at this time. Based on the information that was released, the game is not sanctioned by Konami. As this article (implictly) refers to Konami DDR games, Supernova should not be included in the list at this time unless further detail is available. SYSS Mouse 03:59, 13 January 2006 (UTC)
I'd imagine it'd have to be sanctioned by Konami since they're using the Dance Dance Revolution trademark. Benson is just the company that has made the cabients in the past. Although, I do agree that maybe we should hold off on listing it here until more official word is given. - Lightdarkness 04:11, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

RFC Response

Konami does not have unique rights to wikipedia. All verifiable information that one who might be interested in reading if they came to this page should be on the page. This includes a Dance Dance Revolution game by a different publisher. Hipocrite - «Talk» 20:21, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Konami is still very much behind the project if it exsists, Benson (or Betson, I can never remember) just makes the cabenits, and always has in the past. I'm still reluctant to have it there, as I recall when Bemanistyle released info about DDR Extreme 2, and a screenshot, then several other sites picked it up only to be later found out false. But I'm not going to lose sleep over this. --Lightdarkness 21:30, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Overhauled DDR game list

I have overhauled the DDR game list page because it was way out of date, inaccurate, and had zero citations. In addition I cleaned the code, added the DDR game template, added notes to explain certain aspects of the game releases, and link and redirected each title appropriately. This list was a loose mirror of the list on the main Dance Dance Revolution article and now that it has been brought up to speed it will replace that other list completely, taking many needless lines of text off the main page to allow room for more relevant information. Since the main article linked to this page already, it shouldn't be difficult for people to find what they're looking for. AeronPrometheus (talk) 10:48, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Good to see that somebody is still maintaining this exhaustive list. Nice work. Poiuyt Man talk 22:31, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

This game is intended for sale and use in South America

March 14, 2008, This is as good as this page is going to look as far as I can tell, I cannot fathom anything or any release that has been missed. However, I have a back of the mind concern about Konami's sudden support for the South American arcade market. SuperNova 2 is listed by the game itself as being legally and officially released to ALL of the Americas. This is the first time I've seen this and it's possible that previous arcades could have also been released for the bottom half of this continent. Can anyone else confirm if other arcade releases have had this done? My first suspicion is the first SuperNova, but I no longer have access to one to check. Just watch the game demo mode until the disclaimer screen pops up. --AeronPrometheus (talk) 07:42, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Merge proposal

I think the unreleased games list should be merged here as it is short enough to fit. Jonathan Hardin' (talk) 12:51, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

"short enough to fit" is an inadequate reason for a merge.  æronphonehome  17:25, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
the unreleased game list does not have enough reefs to sustain it's own article plus it doesn't make sense to make it into an article. if anything the list would be merged to the main article or the list of DDR games. So i also agree to the merge.Bread Ninja (talk) 18:38, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
How many references does a Stub-class article need in order to be considered "sustained"? When I created the list I made it a separate article because it didn't make sense to just tack it onto the bottom of the list of video games. The list is of games that were not released, or announced as one thing and released as another. Putting that information in a list of games that DO exist seems contradictory. The two lists are best presented in different styles. Because the list of video games are releases that do or will have their own article not much beyond the title and release information needs to be conveyed and makes sense as a sortable table. Readers can click through and get additional information. The list of unreleased video games exists because some games would otherwise have no mention at all. So that list makes more sense as paragraphs with prose explaining why said game got cancelled or re-purposed. Putting these two styles together in the same article would not look good. And while the list of unreleased video games will probably not get much bigger (I have info about a couple more titles and need to add info to some of the titles already listed but I'm focusing on other areas of DDR series of articles at the moment), the list of video games will keep growing (there are already several titles not accounted for and I plan to overhaul the way the list is structured). Short term and long term this looks like a bad idea and doesn't improve either article's quality.
It would be nice, however, if instead of doing drive by deletion and merge proposals if you fellow editors would help me organize and flesh out these raggedy articles. I really am the only one consistently improving them these past few years, and I'm tired of telling people "wait a moment" because I can't do it all at once.  æronphonehome  19:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose Two of these games were released with different names meaning these are effectively working titles. Another had its development switched from one system to another, it's still the same game, just a different version. The other was released, just not in Europe. The title is misleading and the list is an unnecessary content fork, these details can all be covered in their respective articles. If it was just a list of unreleased games then I would support merging to this list, but as it stands I'd say the content needs merging to relevant articles or deleting if it is duplicative. Someoneanother 20:50, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
Lists are duplicative by design. Why have a list of US Presidents? Every single President already has an article. By the Manual of Style, lists are relevant and useful. The reason why the information in the list of unreleased video games is not on their respective articles is what I stated above. Though I see what you mean about Dancing Stage SuperNova 2, I guess that would better suited just for its article as the game did in fact get released. There was a lot of hullabaloo about it not being released in Europe after it was expected and thought it was worth a mention. Also my second paragraph above applies to you too, wanna help me out?  æronphonehome  23:17, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
I strongly disagree with the way these lists are set out so certainly won't be spending time on them. A single, properly formatted list could deliver everything currently on offer and more, but I'm not going to try and convince you or anyone else of that, the time could be spent elsewhere. Someoneanother 02:46, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

pl, 1)a stub article is nowhere near notable, sometimes not even start-class. 2)like the other person said some of these unreleasaed games belong int heir respected article of the original version of it. 3)this article is a list based completely on games that haven't been released. this article itself is bad and don't know how it even became an article. One all of these games are released the article itself will be useless unless one or two games release. either way if it were merged to their respected articles it wouldn't change much, it will only mention that it was released.Bread Ninja (talk) 00:57, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Revise

The original release dates and countries could be combined into the same box and another column could be added for each game's Metacritic score, if applicable. I am no longer watching this page—ping if you'd like a response czar 13:59, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

I am unsure how to add this in

DDR Max and DDR Max 2 was released in the USA on PS2 and the chart does not reference that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:642:4400:9F00:98F3:8B4C:2768:6FCB (talk) 21:09, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
