I never actually owned any DDR game but I've played DDR on other consoles such as Xbox and PS2. I was excited to play it since but was really disappointed at the track list. The songs are mostly bad sounding covers with cheesy background videos. There's also the lack of techno/electronic dance music which is the style I like (i.e. Butterfly or Heaven which are in previous DDR releases are examples). The graphics are boring and some songs have weird music videos in the background. If you're a DDR fan, don't buy this, you'll be disappointed. If you've never played DDR, then you might like it since you don't have any other DDR games to compare this horrible release with.......
I obtained DDR HP2 yesterday. My first DDR game and looks to be fun for exercise. I read the manual and it said to make sure to plug the included dance mat into the correct old-style Gamecube port on the Wii. What the manual does not tell you is that if you plug into the wrong port, you will still be able to work the menus with the dance mat. Hence, I plugged into the 4th port instead of 1st port and wondered why the mat was "broken" because it would not register any movement during the actual games. Switching to the correct port solved the issue. Some reviews mentioned broken mats and I wonder if this was the issue. Make sure you are really using port 1 on the Wii!......
I've been interested in this game since I saw people playing it back in 2001. I'm not real big into video games, and so I didn't have a Play Station, or any of the other consoles that you needed to play it at the time. But now I have a wii, and so I finally bit the bullet and purchased this game. There is a bit of a learning curve. The first song I tried, even on beginner, seemed awkward and difficult. Although I think I have good hand/eye coordination, I've never had to wokr on my hand/foot coordination until now. Even still, I found the game so entertaining that I played it for around 3 hours. By day two I had progressed from beginner to basic and was getting good scores on songs. It's also great exercise, as I was sweating quite a bit and my legs were pretty sore the next day. But it didn't "feel" like exercise, if you know what I mean. It didn't feel like a chore, it was fun. I love the songs. I wish you could download more off of the 'wii channel' or something. That would add some life to the game, but I suppose they'd rather you just buy another game. Even the older songs that are 'before my time' have been remixed to make them faster and more easy to dance to. I also like that you can customize the game, by turning off the hand markers, or turning off the jumping if you have joint problems. Over all, I definitely recommend this game, I'm so glad that I bought it.......
I have purchased several "active" wii games to go along with more traditional exercising. I like to do different things on different days so as to not get bored and have EA Active (love it) Gold's Cardio (love it) My Fitness Coach (hate it) Wii Fit (love it) Outdoor Sports (like it) Wii Sports (love it) and Wii Sports Resort (like it). I have wanted to buy a DDR to kick the exercise up a notch and when Amazon had it on a Gold Box I was so happy I bought one and another for a gift. It arrived today and I have played it for at least 1-1.5 hours totay and I LOVE it! I am in my upper 40's and have 60 pounds to lose and this is a great program to add to my "wii fitness" regiment. Even on the very easiest programs it is challenging and after a few songs I start getting pretty sweaty! The last time I had my young'uns to Chuck E Cheese there were a couple of teenagers doing the DDR machine there and they were awesome. I plan to dance and dance and dance my a$$ off and next time I go there I hope to have lost all my weight and get on the DDR machine there and put on a show of my own, ha! The songs are ok, but even the ones I don't know or really like that much don't bother me because I just think the "dancing" keeps me entertained. The mat works really well, very responsive, the game is easy to use, I highly recommend this as a very fun game! ......
This game is really really lame. If you have ever played a diffrent version of DDR you will be utterly dissapointed by song choices. The gameplay to get more songs is really confusing. I just want to get rid of this game.......
