Trivia
- MEGALOVANIA was added to DanceDanceRevolution A3 on May 19th, 2022.
- MEGALOVANIA is the first song in the DanceDanceRevolution series to include Shock Arrows outside of the CHALLENGE difficulty.
- Its Double CHALLENGE chart has the largest GROOVE RADAR of any DanceDanceRevolution chart with a total size of 776 (196 STREAM, 112 VOLTAGE, 245 AIR, 104 FREEZE, and 119 CHAOS).
- It also has the highest AIR rating of any chart, with 245, beating the previous record of 224 set by POSSESSION (20th Anniversary Mix)'s Double CHALLENGE chart from DanceDanceRevolution A20.
- With 266 Shock Arrows, it also has the highest number of Shock Arrows of any chart.
- Its CHALLENGE charts are the first charts rated Level 18 in the series to be available by default upon release.
- Its Double CHALLENGE chart has the largest GROOVE RADAR of any DanceDanceRevolution chart with a total size of 776 (196 STREAM, 112 VOLTAGE, 245 AIR, 104 FREEZE, and 119 CHAOS).
- MEGALOVANIA originates from the video game UNDERTALE.
- Two early versions of the song appeared in the EarthBound Halloween Hack (a ROM hack of Earthbound for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System) and the web novel Homestuck, respectively.
- MEGALOVANIA features gameplay footage from the Japanese localization of UNDERTALE in DanceDanceRevolution, which is full screen and eliminates any on-screen dancers.
- The same video was also later used in the GuitarFreaks & DrumMania series.
- MEGALOVANIA's Single CHALLENGE chart had a section where players had to jump and hold both arrows while holding a third arrow, creating a "hand". This was fixed on May 31st, 2022 by shortening the length of the Freeze Arrow.
- MEGALOVANIA also appears in TAITO's GROOVE COASTER, BANDAI NAMCO's 太鼓の達人, and SEGA's CHUNITHM.
- MEGALOVANIA was added to GITADORA HIGH-VOLTAGE on August 10th, 2022.
