Konami is making a DDR game for the wii up to 4 players compatible, uses DDR mats and Wii remotes + nunchuks. The DDR mats connect to the gamecube ports so DDR:Mario Mix pads are supported in addition to whatever pads Konami churns out for the Wii. In the early demo some arrows will be replaced with controller motions. Also yet again Konami is thinking about what to use Wiiconnect24 in this game.

I'm not a huge DDR fan but once being a supervisor at Playdium, I know several people that are.

Adding controller motions sounds too complex for me personally, but I'm guessing there are many DDR pros that might like the extra challenge.

And the actions you can perform with the Wii Remote and/or Nunchuk could be more exciting than a similar game on a competing console with inferior motion controls *coughSixaxiscough*.

This could be the hottest party (at least, involving dance pads and clothes), indeed.

Kairon, your keyboard is NOT a dance mat!

As for the classic Battle Mode gameplay, Konami has a few new ideas to go with the Wii controller as well, allowing players to gesture with the Wii remote to taunt, add possible improvisation to the steps, or actually send more arrows over to other competitors by gesturing in a throwing motion.

*Grins a grin of Grinch-like proportions*

KDR_11k · « **Reply #5 on:** February 02, 2007, 08:11:47 AM »

They forgot "using the Wiimote gestures as an excuse to hit your opponent in the face".

Kairon · « **Reply #6 on:** February 02, 2007, 08:13:40 AM »

They should have a dance-off "follow" competitive mode, where players execute their own freestyle made-up-on-the-spot dance moves, then have their opponents see those same moves on the screen as arrows and try to replicate them!

Or do they already have that?

YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I enjoy DDR and even though I wouldn't buy this game it's a HUGE deal. This is Konami going all out making a game that doesn't require Mario to sell. That is major major major.

Ceric · « **Reply #8 on:** February 02, 2007, 08:16:17 AM »

Personally I hope they bring back the mode where you share an arrow bar and the arrows are different colors. On for the left player, one for the right, and one for both. It's only in the original but it's great.

Boo for wired Dance Pads.
Also I hope there is a classic controller mode because I am a Controller Ranger on the game. I like playing DDR a lot more with my Gamepad then my Dance pads.

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #9 on:** February 02, 2007, 08:25:42 AM »

FINALLY, some REAL support from Konami!!!

Has 4 player DDR ever been done before?

Now if only we can get Capcom to wake the f*ck up we'd be all set.

Flames_of_chaos · « **Reply #10 on:** February 02, 2007, 08:28:47 AM »

Well S_B the first DDR 4 player game will be DDR:Universe on the 360.

Louieturkey · « **Reply #11 on:** February 02, 2007, 08:29:47 AM »

This excites me to no end.

Oh Kairon, would you edit your "WHEAAAAAAAA..."?
It's causing my view to stretch big time.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #12 on:** February 02, 2007, 08:30:54 AM »

I recall Bloodworth once said "Make me scroll right and I'll hunt you down"...

Ah, thanks.

Wasn't sure.

Another showpiece for Amerika's talk shows after Wii Sports.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #15 on:** February 02, 2007, 09:16:15 AM »

Yeah! The same day they reveal Dewy and I'm questioning Konami's true intentions for support and we get a "normal" DDR. The fact that the Cube mats work just makes it that much cooler. You figure they would want to make us buy all new mats but they didn't. The best part is if you own Mario DDR then you already have a mat for player two when you get this game (I assume it will come with a mat).

I actually thought Mario DDR was an ideal crossover but I think it is a better sign that Konami feels they can sell a DDR for the Wii without putting Nintendo characters in it.

Kairon · « **Reply #16 on:** February 02, 2007, 09:27:57 AM »

Yeah, I was actually TURNED OFF by Mario being in the DDR game... whodathunk?

Wait a sec... mats.... could we get a track and field game on the Wii now?!?!?!?

*shrug* ironically DDR Mario Mix was my favorite of the series because the hokey Story and how it mixed Dance and Mini-games.
I enjoy and own the rest(Well not the XBox ones and Disney Mix (You know how hard that is to find at a reasonable price?)). (Also own all 2 cube games that use the mats...)

Do you have the DDR for the GBC? I think that was only a Japanese release. Did that come with a dance pad? o_0

Good news. Namco and Capcom are next, believe it.

Edfishy · « **Reply #20 on:** February 02, 2007, 09:41:25 AM »

I rather enjoyed Dance Dance Recolution: Mario Mix(And still do, almost a year after purchasing it) and am very excited to see not only that Konami is developing a quality Dance Dance game for the Wii, but adding exclusive Wiimote controls to boot!

Yet another surprise announcement for me, and another hole in my pocket book!

Hocotate · « **Reply #21 on:** February 02, 2007, 10:44:55 AM »

I'm all over this. Now all we need is ZOE3 and Suikoden and Sony can have metal gear for all anyone cares.

Fantastic news, though I'm not sure why they bothered to give a hands/feet-on demonstration of this. They haven't even decided how they're going to use the motion control.

Kairon · « **Reply #24 on:** February 02, 2007, 12:39:30 PM »

It's amazing that they already have a prototype to demo that works on the Wii considering they only started work a month ago!
