== General Information / Changes==
== General Information ==
*DanceDanceRevolution 1st is also known as version 1.0 and Internet Ranking version as version 1.5.
* First BEMANI game to run on KONAMI's PlayStation-based System 573 Analog hardware.
* The music selection screen is a jukebox-like menu with CDs cover representing each a song.
* The original DanceDanceRevolution is also known as "version 1.0".
*First game with Single, Double and Couple as play style options. Double requires a code to activate.
** Since [[AC DDR X|DanceDanceRevolution X]], both versions (original and [[AC DDR 1st IR‎‎|1.5]]) are combined into a single folder, labeled '''DDR 1st'''.
*First game with 3 play modes: Easy (1 song only but with no game over), Normal and Hard.
* The game features promotional materials related to the Dancemania series during the opening credits. This would continue to be the case until [[AC DDR EXTREME|EXTREME]].
*First game with 2 dance levels: BASIC, ANOTHER (DIFFICULT). MANIAC (EXPERT) was added with the Internet Ranking Version.
* The game features an announcer which was used until [[AC DDR CLUB VER.2|DanceDanceRevolution 2ndMIX CLUB VERSiON2]].
*First game to use a foot rating with a scale of 1 to 8.
* The music selection screen is a jukebox-like menu with CD covers, each representing a song available to play.
*First game in the series to have an EXTRA STAGE system that would not return until [[AC DDRMAX|DDRMAX]]'s release.
* Three play style options are available: SINGLE, DOUBLE, and COUPLE.
*Only one modifier was available: the TURN option MIRROR which required a step code to be entered on the dance stage.
** DOUBLE requires a step code to activate.
*The default and only arrow color was FLAT.
* Three play modes are available: EASY, NORMAL, and HARD. The modes primarily differ in the songs available for selection.
*The possible step timing are Perfect!!, Great!, Good, Boo or Miss....
** EASY mode allows for only one stage. It will not end early if the dance gauge reaches zero.
*The possible rank result for a song are SS (all steps Perfect), S, A, B, C, D, E (failed).
** NORMAL and HARD modes allow for three stages but will end the game early as soon as the dance gauge is empty. An EXTRA STAGE can also be earned in both of these modes.
* Introduced [[AFRO]], [[LADY]], [[KONSENTO:01]] (コンセント1号) and [[OSHARE-ZUKIN]] (おしゃれずきん) as characters.
** The Single BASIC charts of BUTTERFLY and KUNG FU FIGHTING vary depending on the mode. The game uses slightly easier variations when playing on EASY or NORMAL, whereas it uses the standard BASIC charts for HARD mode. The easier variants were not used in any future games in the series.
* The Internet Ranking Version update is the most common version, and includes two new songs and some UI updates.
* Two difficulties are available for the songs' charts: BASIC and ANOTHER.
** Versus play was added and it requires a code to activate.
** The difficulty is selected via a step code when choosing the play mode.
** Single MANIAC (EXPERT) and Double ANOTHER (DIFFICULT) charts were added.
** Only DanceDanceRevolution game where the gate transition effect uses different colors depending of the difficulty and mode played (a darker shade of yellow/white for ANOTHER, as well as light blue for DOUBLE).
** The foot level names were changed, they stayed the same (with the addition of Catastrophic) through [[AC DDR 3rd PLUS|3rdMIX PLUS]].
* The difficulty is rated in a foot rating scale of 1 to 7 for all the dance levels available on each song:
** Successfully hit arrows disappear and display a flash on the receptors. The original release made no visual distinction between hit and missed arrows.
** BEGINNER (1 foot), AVERAGE (2 feet), NOVICE (3 feet), EXPERT (4 feet), PROFESSIONAL (5 feet), MASTER (6 feet), HERO (7 feet).
** As the name suggests, Internet Ranking codes are displayed after the game. These allowed players to compete for high scores online.
* Only one modifier is available, the TURN option MIRROR, which requires a step code to be entered on the dance stage.
** The original release used the 1986-1998 KONAMI logo in-game (one of only five Japanese BEMANI games to use it, the other four being the first two ''beatmania'' arcade games, the original PlayStation ''beatmania'' home port, and [[PnM_AC_1|pop'n music]]). Internet Ranking Version uses the 1998-2003 KONAMI logo.
* The default arrow color is FLAT, and the default arrow design (later called CLASSIC) has a V-shaped cut on its tail end.
*Total songs: 9 songs (11 songs for Internet Ranking Version)
* [[AFRO]], [[LADY]], [[KONSENTO:01]] (コンセント1号), [[OSHARE-ZUKIN]] (おしゃれずきん), [[DISC Beings|DISC-A and DISC-B]] (輪っか) are the only selectable characters. By default, AFRO is player 1 and LADY is player 2.
** During gameplay, the selected character appears on screen dancing in front of animations.  
** Unlike future games, the animations that are played are determined by the current stage and the characters used.
** To identify the choreography used by the dancer, the game shows on screen the type of dance currently in us, which is a feature only found in DanceDanceRevolution and its Internet Ranking Version. The list of choreographies is as follows:
*** HIPHOP, FUNK, LOCK, CAPOEIRA, JAZZ, SOUL, HOUSE, HOPPING, WAVE.
* The possible judgments for stepping are PERFECT!!!, GREAT!!, GOOD!, BOO!, and MISS.
* The possible rank results for a song are S, A, B, C, and D.
* First game in the series to have an EXTRA STAGE system. This system would not return until [[AC DDRMAX|DDRMAX]]'s release.
* Total songs: 9

Only by playing BASIC SINGLE mode can the player play the EXTRA STAGE, which gives access to one song on ANOTHER difficulty. To access this extra song, the player must choose a specific song for the FINAL STAGE and clear it with a full-gauge (MY FIRE for Normal mode; PARANOiA for Hard mode).
