Talk:AC DDR WORLD

LCD-based cabinet requirement

First DanceDanceRevolution arcade game to require an LCD-based cabinet, shipped with DanceDanceRevolution X or newer, as CRT-based cabinets are unsupported.

• Where was this mentioned or stated? As far as I know, the main website for DDR WORLD has not mentioned any information about cabinet specs. / Edit: Obviously, the old cabinets (CRT models) won't run the upcoming game since they're discontinued, but still where was it stated that it requires an LCD-based cabinet? - Sweets (talk) 10:55, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
  • I think, we should do the same thing as it has done with CastHour (something like "SD image resolution is discontinued"). --Artyomich (talk) 04:09, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
• The problem with the bm CastHour comment is that in the case of DDR, DDR World doesn't just discontinue the SD resolution, but also CRT cabinets as a whole. It is possible to remove the CRT monitor on a DDR cabinet, replace it with a proper widescreen LCD monitor, and then set DDR A3 (and possibly other versions from X to A20+) to run in widescreen 720p. Even in that case, however, Konami does not support these cabinets with World or online A3.
  I updated the article with the best wording possible. Please let me know if you have any concerns. --LABcrab (talk) 07:28, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Some ridiculous trivia...I noticed that WORLD doesn't say "Here We Go" when gameplay starts. Is this the very first version of the game with this behavior? My recollection is that literally all previous versions say "Here We Go," except during stage 2+ of courses.
