[Arcade] DDR SuperNOVA

Since no one bothered to post a new thread about the upcoming DDR Arcade release, I'm taking the time to do so.

Anyway, I pulled up an update from sometime last week that shows some new songs that I suppose are confirmed to be on the mix.

chaos / D≒SIR returnes / ?/?/?/? / ? BPM

Now please don't ask me to translate the Japanese text, because I have no fucking idea what the hell the translations are. The only one I DO know is a song by Terra, which is called "MUGEN". I forgot if it's the ??? BPM or the 171 BPM.

Anyway, they're planning "Drivin' " and several Super Euro remixes that I've previously played on StepMania, I'm definitely more interested in this mix.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Last time I checked during the whole preview video, MUGEN was a 10 footer. I might be mistaken. But I can't wait for this. As much as I love ITG, I <3 DDR also.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, I read somewhere that Mugen was considered at 10, but that does sound rather ridiculous. I remember downloading a simfile for it, but whoever created the file said that everything but the Challenge steps were "Official Steps".

Highly impossible if you ask me for those Heavy steps to be 10-footer steps. The chart said it was either a 7 or 8. I can't remember, cuz I'm not at my computer and won't be for the next few days.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'm improving my stamina with ITG2 while waiting for that new DDR mix. I expect so much from it. I even may go back to DDR exclusively, who knows...

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I never really switched to ITG2 since I rarely get to play it. I do enjoy the game a lot, but DDR will always be superior for me, especially since I'm not strong enough to pass all those Expert charts on ITG, maybe an 8 or 9 here and there, but not really a whole bunch.

How ya doing, buddy?

Hopefully, this helps a bit:

I'm seeing a lot of good stuff (I think that the new BeForU song's are infinitely better than the old ones... 'cept for DIVE, of course). But why the hell do we need another Britney Spears cover???

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I'm very familiar with Himawari thanks to Ultramix 3. Of course, right after I heard it on the game, I went and found the full version, which is better.

Wasn't Chikara on DDREI Tournamix 4 or something?? (also sounded awesome)

I don't really care if Toxic's in the game or not, because there's another 300+ songs for me to play. Of course, I might play it if they make it sound good like they did for Genie In A Bottle (my personal opinion, anyway). But from what I heard, Drivin' (one of my personal favs) is supposed to be a 9-footer on Heavy, so I might be too busy with that song to care.

Couldn't they add Dream Possession by Des-row?? Such a pretty song... compared to all the others I've heard from them. They sound ok, but it's nice to have a soothing song every once in a while.

Most amazing jew boots

I've actually never downloaded any of the DDREI Tournamixes... Back when DDR America was up was when I was having torrenting problems. But CHIKARA's a pretty old song, so I wouldn't discount it being in a fan sim.

I agree, Dream Possession is a very nice song. Dan Dan Doh seems more out of place in DDR than Daikenkai was.

Something I missed before - AA and a Healing Vision remix being on the same list scares me. Lately, new remixes of DDR songs have been sucking lately, ne? (Most of the Euro mixes are pretty dated.)

How ya doing, buddy?

I have a simfile for AA that someone gave to me. The song sounds wicked awesome (again, my opinion) from what I can say. The Healing Vision remix doesn't really concern me, as I never really cared too much for the original and HVAM (still gotta pass that MF on Heavy).

Lee, you think AA is scary? Wait til you come across AAA and AAAA like I have: AAA sounding even better than AA, but AAAA not quite fitting my style. Plus, the simfile is near impossible, almost like Vertex ALPHA, which also sounds wicked.

I actually listened to that Toxic remix, and I gotta say it's got its good moments in the song, mainly the trance-like parts. It's something I would probably play once every dozen rounds or so.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

AA just really sounded... sloppy to me. Plus, I'm terrible in IIDX so my experiences with it there were... really bad, to say the least.

The reason I typically avoid fan sims is because I don't want to waste my time downloading impossible simfiles. There are a lot of good fan mixes out there, I just haven't heard a lot of them.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Drivin' a 9-footer ? Cool. I just hope it will look like the [2] one[s] I downloaded (one in Tournamix 4, plus another on bemanistyle). I never succeeded to make my CF pad to work well with Stepmania (it's a little offbeat, I dunno why), so I never had the chance to try it in real.

I never played any beatmania nor heard anything from that series (except the past crossovers and some simfiles found on the net). Can I hear that AA ? and the others, AAA and AAAA, are they real or only stupid fan remix ?

Most amazing jew boots

Unfortunately, I don't have the files with me, as they're on my computer 150 miles away, but you might be lucky enough to find them on Bemanistyle.

As far as I remember, AA and AAA were made by DJ Amuro, not sure about AAAA. I may be mistaken.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I like the sound of "Fascination Maxx" and "Healing D Vision". Thos should definitely prove to be murderous.

I was hoping for something new from Orange Lounge or something in the vein of Des-Row's Dai-Ken-Kai. Oh well, we'll see.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Have you actually heard the tracks or are you just speculating from the names?

Des-ROW has two tracks on the posted list, and one Dan Dan Doh is in the same vein as Daikenkai. I'd have to agree on wanting to see more ORANGE LOUNGE. I'd actually like to see some more 2MB remixes... those were always among my favorite songs.

A and AA were Amuro. AAA was a remix by DM Ashura. Haven't heard of AAAA though.

Really? I agree that the main piano part of A is much better than any piano in AA, but I like AA's strings and synth a lot more than A's. I find it much easier to listen to. Then again, it took me a good hundred or so tries at LEAST to pass A on IIDX, so I may still be quite tired of it.

FELIPE NO

Just speculation...of course I'm going to be eager to get Fascination Max and Healing D Vision when they're out.

I can't believe there's more than just "A" now! Looks like I haven't looked at the songs in the mixes for a while now.

Is there an orignal version Orion.78 somewhere yet? I don't like the civilization mix, but I love the Ameuro mix. Although the Ameuro version may actually be the original.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

yes! Chikara and Himawari on this mix (along with a few noted others) have this mix completely sold for me.

yes it was. I could upload it sometime very shortly.

How ya doing, buddy?

They're probably the slower versions... Hell we got a different version of Little Boy on MAX2, so imagine the possiblities!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I wish they would add more fourth mix favorites back like Cat's Eye and the stuff we've never seen from the UK Console releases... a lot of those songs had excellent steps and sounded excellent as well

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Here's that simfile of Chikara that I said I would upload.
Enjoy, for now at least.

Videos of Chaos and Healing-D-Vision (both on heavy) are up here.

They both look pretty dumb, but more so with Chaos and its 3924 stops.

TIERRA BUENA / WILMA DE OLIVEIRA / ?/?/?/? / 115 BPM

Tierra Buena! Wow, that song's gonna be in there ^_^

Makes me want to play some Guitar Freaks/Drummania haha.

Looking at the video. Chaos seems like a straight-forward song, but with all those stops, it makes it look hard. I think Konami is running out of ideas.

How ya doing, buddy?

The song is really great. But it's only a 6 on Heavy, I think.

I must say that the Chaos steps are officially the dumbest things ever. Healing D Vision or whatever it's called looks and sounds like a fanmade simfile. Which, I guess, is both good and bad.

BUT, the character models are very nice. There's even some ass-shakin' action, which is a big improvement from whatever the hell the characters were doing before. (Sue me if these improvements are old - the newest US console release I've played is EXTREME.)

Jam it back in, in the dark.
