DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX PLUS
Release Information
- Release Date: June 21st, 2000.
General Information / Changes
- Songs from 2ndMIX MODE no longer have COUPLE charts. Instead, they were replaced with UNISON charts.
- First PLUS release in the DanceDanceRevolution series, which adds 17 songs: three new Dancemania licenses, all seven Korean licenses from VER.KOREA, and all seven CS songs from 2ndReMIX and 3rdMIX CS (the latter of which was released on the same day as 3rdMIX PLUS).
- All of the VER.KOREA licenses are written in Latin Script instead of Korean, and have a generic "Korean Dance music" label.
- The announcer doesn't include PLUS when saying the game's title during the opening credits.
- First DanceDanceRevolution to have all three difficulties available on the same song selection screen.
- Due to this, the game mode STEP STEP REVOLUTION, introduced in the original DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX was removed completely from 3rdMIX, and its charts were added as the MANIAC charts.
- Three game modes available: 3rdMIX PLUS (default), 3rdMIX, and 2ndMIX. To access any of the modes, simply press 1P or 2P song selection buttons thrice or twice on the title screen.
- Play modes for all three game modes are SOFT, NORMAL, and NONSTOP.
- SOFT functions like it did in the original 3rdMIX but now supports 2ndMIX songs.
- NORMAL is essentially a renamed MEDIUM mode from the original 3rdMIX.
- NONSTOP functions like it did in the original 3rdMIX but now allows up to three different difficulties to be used. The difficulty can be switched using the same step codes as in NORMAL mode.
- The four AMD remixes that were hidden in 3rdMIX are available in 3rdMIX PLUS by default.
- If playing on 3rdMIX, the songs are hidden just like in the original game.
- The three new CS songs from 2ndReMIX (think ya better D, LOVE THIS FEELIN', and TRIP MACHINE ～luv mix～) can be played in either 2ndMIX or 3rdMIX PLUS mode.
- The three songs now have Double MANIAC charts, but these can only be played in 3rdMIX PLUS mode. These charts are not available in 2ndMIX mode.
- Final DanceDanceRevolution game until the 2ndMIX MODE in DanceDanceRevolution X3 VS 2ndMIX to feature names for difficulty levels.
- On-screen lyrics only appeared in 3rdMIX MODE.
- Last DanceDanceRevolution game wherein a player on SINGLE can be switched at any stage to VERSUS or DOUBLE.
- Total songs: 88
Staff Information
- Producer: Yoshihiko Ota
- Sound director: Naoki Maeda

Courses
NONSTOP
Songs with a ※ are only available when playing with one credit and when the player selects either VERSUS, UNISON, or DOUBLE.
These NONSTOP courses are included in every mode.
Like with 3rdMIX, CAPRICE and ROULETTE courses are not listed, due to their choosing songs at random. Another course can be created when loading a MEMORY CARD to the cabinet, the order of the songs are selected by the memory card.
