Unlike most BEMANI series, DanceDanceRevolution's menu layout tends to change a lot based on what version you are playing. Also unlike IIDX and pop'n music, DanceDanceRevolution has dedicated menu buttons. All DanceDanceRevolution cabinets have at least left, right, and start menu buttons. Cabinets that were sold with [[AC DDR X|DanceDanceRevolution X]] or later also have up and down menu buttons. The directional menu buttons are used to navigate menus, and the Start (green) button to make selections. Cabinets with eAMUSEMENT support also include a numeric pad (00 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9). | Unlike most BEMANI series, DanceDanceRevolution's menu layout tends to change a lot based on what version you are playing.
