Song Connections / Remixes

• The GuitarFreaks & DrumMania series uses a rock arrangement of MEGALOVANIA, instead of the original version of the song used in DanceDanceRevolution.

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.
• 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.
  • Alongside the addition of MEGALOVANIA, the [*GITADORA ni UNDERTALE ga arawareta] (【＊GITADORAに UNDERTALEが あらわれた】) event started on the same date and will end on October 10th, 2022, allowing the players to unlock UNDERTALE-themed customization items by obtaining 30 points. Each song played awards 1 point, but playing LONG version songs and MEGALOVANIA award 2 points instead.
