Isn't Just Dance based off a reality TV show or something? Or does it completely stand on it's own?


I don't think it is based of anything.

However there is a Wii-Dancing Game "Dancing with the Stars", which bases on a TV-Show with the same name. (Maybe you have mixed up these two ...)

I knew about that one.

 

It's just hard to believe some came up with a dancing game that has nothing to do with some other form of media. Glad to see it's selling well though.

DDR wasn't based on other media.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

DDR was made back when people could think up original game concepts without tying it into a pre-existing franchise.

this is what I think, theirs alot of girls who own a wii and seen the commercial and bought it and i think a few girls seen it on tv and got a wii and got the game and I think If nintendo got a game on the level of halo and at the same time advertised all their their hardcore games at once wii sales would pickup for hardcore gamers and the game like halo on wii would sell and push wii in a direction that we all would like.............

You didn't specify only this generation, and are generalizing about this generation anyway.

I've had two girls at my university talk about this out of the blue when I mentioned I have a wii. They even posted a video of them playing it on facebook (one of them). It's huge with women.

Games on Xbox have guns on the right side of the screen. Simple.

That's most people being right-handed, not existing franchises. That's not simple, that's not even getting how originality and unoriginality works.

I don't care. I'm a shitty troll. All systems post 2004 suck. Always.
