DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX
Release Information
- Release Date: March 27th, 2001.
General Information / Changes
- Introduces new songwheel interface, displaying song titles in bigger fonts, but subtitles and artist names in smaller fonts for each song.
- First DanceDanceRevolution game to feature LONG VERSION songs.
- LONG VERSION songs can only be played on the second to last stage in a playthrough. It counts as two whole songs when played.
- First DanceDanceRevolution game to list BPM changes in a song.
- First DanceDanceRevolution game to feature stops in a song.
- First DanceDanceRevolution game to introduce AAA rating when achieving perfect full combo, instead of AA which had been used since DanceDanceRevolution 4thMIX.
- First and only DanceDanceRevolution game with a windowed demo loop to display warning screen, KONAMI, and BEMANI logos, and Dancemania albums, except the title screen, tutorial and demonstration song.
- First DanceDanceRevolution to feature a different in-song interface, with the top and bottom parts of the screen cropped to make room for score counters and a bar. This would continue to be used in the arcade series until DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA.
- Announcer saying "Dance Dance Revolution" returns (but in new tone) since DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX when selecting 2ndMIX MODE.
- Last DanceDanceRevolution arcade game to feature dancing characters until the release of DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA.
- The NONSTOP course mode introduced in DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX was removed.
- First mainline DanceDanceRevolution game to run at 60 frames per second. (Dancing Stage featuring TRUE KiSS DESTiNATiON first featured 60 FPS, in 1999.)
- Last DanceDanceRevolution arcade game to have the announcer used from the original DanceDanceRevolution title.
- None of 5thMIX's new licenses (except for the Dancemania-made remix CAN'T STOP FALLIN' IN LOVE (SPEED MIX)) ever appeared in another Japanese arcade DanceDanceRevolution release.
- Selecting difficulty during the song selection screen has been returned, replacing separate difficulty menu which had been used since DanceDanceRevolution 4thMIX.
- All of the game's song banners (new and old songs alike) are taken from the respective song's in-game background.
- Songs from 5thMIX revived in later DanceDanceRevolution games would gain unique banners then, though.
- Song backgrounds for each song now always appear at the beginning and end of every song. This carried over to all future DanceDanceRevolution titles up to DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.
- For the first time in a DanceDanceRevolution game, most of the old songs introduced prior to DanceDanceRevolution 4thMIX were removed. Previously, roughly one licensed song or so was removed in a new version of the series.
- Of the 87 songs that 4thMIX retained from 1stMIX to 3rdMIX PLUS, only the 20 most popular songs at the time of release remain in 5thMIX.
- All 14 new songs in 4thMIX PLUS remain in 5thMIX.
- 48 of the new songs in 4thMIX remain in 5thMIX, leaving SAINT GOES MARCHING (REMIX) as the only new song in 4thMIX to be absent from 5thMIX
- EXTREME and subsequent games revived most of the KONAMI originals missing from 5thMIX. In addition, EXTREME revived several licenses, including SAINT GOES MARCHING (REMIX).
- First DanceDanceRevolution game to show play style indicator in song selection, stage result, and overall result of all stages.
- New songs: 40
- Total songs: 122
