Emphasis on the 'MENTAL'.

i mean.... Rythem and Police for 3 minutes?.... insane!

Honestly though... they need stuff from video games ported over... like they did with the Gradius theme in DDRU2 that was an awesome song... and the step edit masters for STep Mania have stepped a hell of a lot of video game music that rules....

I want to get a ITG theme for SM..... i would find that funny anyone have a link for one?.... possibly a link for one for a really old release? (the one on my xbox )

Me and Dancefreak were the FIRST two people on the WORLD to play on the SuperNova!!!

We got there at 9am, before it had even officially opened, so we had a WHOLE hour to play on it!

First things first it has a KILLER theme, its bright red with lots of wireframe, has EVERY 10 footer except max period, PLUS all the originals from DS Max/Extreme 2, and a large handful of new songs, the first thing you notice is the new select mode screen, you have single versus and double plus an unknown 4th option where the symbol is two arrows facing each other, im assuming its unison or battle but dont quote me on that, I'll find out later.

Anonther thing you notice is that after you select a style you can choose :
All songs
Tutorial
Easy
Medium
Difficult

Pressing down on difficult reveals nonstop and challenge mode!!!!!
none of these modes are selectable except all songs.

Song select screen:

Think DS Max but red and wired, the first song is long train running but its the Xtreme version, not the bus stop version. Ive noticed a shortage of licenses so far but ive been told they are still working on them, and all the licenses are in fact dancemania, they have toxic by helen and what a wonderful world by beatbox and someone else.

Options screen:

All the usual mods BUT on the select skin for your arrows its default is vivid, right on that you get flat, right on that you get rainbow which is basically solo, right on that you get NOTE! you can also turn all jumps off or just have them as single steps and little has now been renamed to CUT.

Gameplay screen:

You have like a 3-D wireframe dancefloor with a random cyber dancing character, like baby-lon with a headset on, all the older songs have the original videos so far, like your rain and tommorow.

Restults:

Again not much to say here, no marvelous as of yet and the perfect window is huge, I AAA'ed one of the new songs, (Red zone) on basic 6 (First AAA in the world XD) but I noticed its stil 5th mix grading

The good stuff:

LOTS Of new ko's, there is a 10 which barely qulaifies as a 10 more like an 8 because me and ricky (Tsugaru03/Stardragon04) FC'ed it barless first try.

The songlist spans OVER 300 SONGS approx! Thats got to make you all happy, no sorting yet though but I assume they will implement that later.

New songs that I can tell you about:

Long train running - Xtreme
A Love like this - Pandera
Toxic (Company edit) - Helen
What a wonderful world - (Beatbox ft DJ Miko)
Curus - D-Crew
Dragon blade - Kozo Nakamuro (I cant see the spelling very clear on the video)
Happy * Angel - Jun
Mugen - Terra (10 Foot but shouldnt be)
Nijiiro - Cant see the artist
Red zone - Tatsh and naoki
Xepher - Tatsh
konako no nanatsu no okwaini - Asaki
Moon - Dj Taka ft erika
No. 13 - Taka (Respect for JSB)
Centaur - Jimmy Wekcl
Ska Ska No.3 - Again I cant see the artist
Murmur Twins - See above
Fly away -Chiyotio
Innocence of silence - NC Ft nrg factory (We think this is the DS Max Backgroudn music for select a mode

Calico Cat rock (Mikeniko rocks official name )

Ki-Se-Ki - be 4 you

Doll - Terra
Isputureusti (DDR Version) - Akira yamaoka oh and if we spelt that wrong, we tried.

Unconfirmed :

We assume max period is on here but as an unlock because when we recorded the first songlist some songs werent there than on our second credit.

The extra stage :

Now we know the limit is 7 foot AA it might just be anything on expert but 7 is the lowest I've tried. and getting extra stage gives you the most BS Max song ever, rating in at about 2 minutes 5 seconds, worthy of a 13 foot ITG style, the bpm keeps changing from 400-200-100 with stops everywhere and over 600 steps!

Fascination MaXX!!! - 100-200-400

This song is stupidly hard, nobody has passed it yet, only me and ricky have seen the ending because it was on fail end of song when we got in, we can say that the final run is at 400 bpm with jumps thrown in at random.

A Quote from the leaflet that Konami has been handing out: "Supernova is sure to blow the competition away!!"

Oh, and there's also plans for a Dancing Stage Super Nova home version Very Happy
