Mini consoles have been in vogue since Nintendo kicked off the trend in 2016 by releasing the NES mini. A scale replica of the original console loaded with classic games. Nintendo has followed up with a mini SNES since then, and other developers, including Sega, have followed in Nintendo's footsteps. While there are still a lot of consoles yet to be shrunk down to size, what you likely didn't expect is for a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dance Dance Revolution arcade machine to get a mini versio♉n you can play at home, but here we are.

The Dance Dance Revolution Classic Mini was revealed in 2023 and has been created by ZUIKI (). Details on exactly what the machine is and how it will work have been hard to come by, not only because they've been slow to be revealed, but because when they are revealed, they've been in Japanese. Not only do we now know a lot more about the Dance Dance Revolution Classic Mini, but we also know it will be getting a US release 🎀and you can pre-order it now for $499.99 through the link in the box below.

Yes, that's a lot of money, but this is a pretty special bit of kit. The console itself is a 1/5 scale replica of the original Dance Dance Revಌolution Machines that first appeared in arcades 25 years ago. That means unless you're a borrower, you won't be able to use the machine in the same way we did in the early 2000s. There are two ways you can play the Classic Mini version - either by using your fingers on the 1/5 scale replica, or by hooking it up to a TV or monitor, dusting off your old dance mats, and playing them properly.

Compatible dance mats🧜 will need a USB connection. Your crinkled, 20-year-old PS2 ones aren't going to cut it.

Tracks Pulled From The Original Dance Dance Revolution Trilogy

The throwback feel is completed by the confirmed track list for the Dance Dance Revolution Classic Mini. Again according to Time Extension, 35 songs have been confirmed for the mini arcade machine replica so far, all of which have been pulled from the first three Dance Dance Revolution games. The highlights include Tubthumping by Chumbawumba as well as Dead End and Paranoia from the original DDR machines. The pre-order listing doesn't mention any tracks featured on the console, so 📖it's not clear if the setlist is complete or even if ZUIKI plans to add to it in the future.

The Dance Dance Revolution Classic Mini is a 1/5 scale replica of the original arcade machines that first started to pop up in arcades in the early 2000s. The replica can either be played with your fingers, or you can connect it to a TV or monitor and play it 𒆙the old-fashioned way with compatible dance mats.

The Dance Dance Revolution Classic Mini won't be released in the U📖S until October 31, 2024, but you can place your pre-order now and guarantee you get one. There's no mention of how many of these will be made, but since the project started life as a Japan-only crowdfunded project, I can't imagine there will be an endless supply of them should they end up being as popular as I'm expecting them to be.
