Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix

released on Jul 14, 2005

Boogie down with Mario in his own dance party. Players shake their things to more than 25 dance-flavored songs, from classic Nintendo themes to familiar favorites. With five difficulty levels, dancers of all abilities will be able to get into the groove. The special "Workout" feature tracks the calories burned while playing. Someone has stolen the Music Keys and released the music they held. Without the Music Keys, the unstable power of the music is wreaking havoc on the land. Mario must recover them before the chaos destroys the entire Mushroom Kingdom! The path to the keys is simple: Left, Right, Up, Down, Right, Down ...Characters include Mario, Luigi, Toad, Waluigi, Wario, Bowser. Players clear levels by performing the correct steps. Once they clear all the levels in a particular world, they'll collect a Music Key. Collect all the Music Keys to win. Players control Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix by stepping on different arrows on the Action Pad (included with game). Players can finally experience the thrill of stomping Goombas and other enemies firsthand. As players clear songs, they will unlock more songs, minigames and difficulty levels.

As a proud Nintendork, this version of DDR pleases me. The fam & I had a lot of fun with it when I was a kid. It's nothing to write home about, and its arguably inferior to most other DDR games mainly due to how watered-down the difficulty is, but it's still fun. Decent remixes of classic tunes combined with timeless DDR gameplay. Worth trying out of pure curiosity if nothing else. Plus, having a ridiculous dance-off final battle with Bowser will never not be hilarious.

Yes I had Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix and two dance pads. No I did not keep it. Yes I have looked at the prices on eBay since then and regretted getting rid of it.
This game was absurd. Love seeing Nintendo doing goofy shit like this. Something really great about seeing Mario and Waluigi cutting it up in a dance battle and moving in ways no Mario character has moved since.

I can't say I particularly enjoy this even compared to other ddr games, but there are some certified bangers on the soundtrack that can't be ignored.

First DDR ever owned. Pretty fun memories from it.

as someone with Normal (obsessive) amount of knowledge about the Mario Series but had this as a bit of a blind spot, this felt like meeting god
