- Hey I hope you enjoyed the video! This took me quite some time to make but it was really fun for me. I came into this project thinking I would find five games at most but it's crazy how much of an influence Just Dance has had on the gaming industry! Not only then but even now. If I've earned your subscription please consider subscribing as I'd love to reach 2k this year! Have a great day and thank you for reading. 🐼💙
[GAMEPLAY AND MUSIC DOES NOT BELONG TO ME]
fun fact: ubi actually tried to file a restraining order against the publishers of get up and dance
and failed
I didn't even know there were so many JD rip-offs lol. Definitely a much needed video that (I think) no one had ever done. Good job!
also the Big Time Rush game looks straight out of a 2001 PC game lmao it looks SO BAD
Thank you! That game is so badly made it's sad lol
I'm still watching the video and I don't know if you mention it or not, but if you didn't, I think you should have mentioned the Pretty Cure dance game that was released in 2013, Pretty Cure All Stars Everyone Gather Let's Dance. It's not that big of a Just Dance clone, but it *was* released at the height of Just Dance's popularity so I guess it could be seen as cashing in on the trend. It does have bonus points of being an official Pretty Cure game so it uses official choreos for most of the dances, and it does have an unique gimmick of having multiple different combinations of characters/coaches for the songs. It does make me wish Ubisoft collaborated with Toei and Bandai to actually bring Pretty Cure to Just Dance, given they're still cranking out ending themes with official choreographies and Ubisoft put out that Yo-Kai Watch Just Dance spin-off from a couple years ago.
I just so happened to look that up. Wow, i guess a Pretty Cure just dance does exist for real. Tho I'm having doubts a song from the show would ever be in the game. Unless if it's DANZEN! Futari wa Pretty Cure if a Crunchyroll season was ever planned similar to the Disney season
There's 12 songs, all from the anime
PRECURE MENTIONED
4:58 “I’m not sure what kid would enjoy this” *looks at my childhood and whistles awkwardly*
21:21 they copied even the extreme version choreography of kill this love from just dance 2020
I have played both Dance Central and Just Dance. I have to say that I do prefer Dance Central over Just Dance as, like you said, you can choose between difficulties and coaches. I own the first three installments of DC, as I only have an Xbox 360 and not an Xbox One or so.
The Nickelodeon dance game you mentioned is actually fun to play. We borrowed a copy from the library back in the days and we loved it.
You know I really wanted the K-Pop Dance Festival game? I loved it back then and I wanted a copy of it 😢.
One thing that I've always loved from Dance Central is the "Rehearse mode", which has slow motion and recording functions to compare ourselves with the character and see if we're doing a move correctly. In addition, it has a "coach" type (voiced by Usher), who explains every move to be performed. I know there isn't footage from it, but I think that should've been mentioned here as well, as it was a helpful mode that every dance game must have, mostly for hard choreographies.
Btw, thank you for featuring my footage from 1:36 to 1:52 to explain the menu functions. Nice video.
I think the rip-off problem that the JD trend had is the same problem that answers why the music videogame genre is nowhere to be found nowadays. I mean, its the same thing that happens when DDR, Singstar & the Guitar Hero/Rock Band rivalry were big at the time.
These C-class studios think that only replicating whats popular, only investing in a good songlist and then just making the most halfass game just to getting people into buying this, making them think that is the real big game that everyone is talking about, when its not, is going to making them rich.
This is a big problem in general in the casual gaming industry, and the reason why Wii was full of shovelware at the end of its run. I mean, many of the games featured on this video were on Wii so 🤷.
I remember when there were a billion plastic mats attempting to replicate DDR as ghetto Simon Says or had the audacity to be played FOR DDR on consoles.
Everyone wants to strike gold/oil but have zero plans lined up.
@fortunes_youtube I am from the Just Dance generation and I never grow up with the DDR series, but I remember having as a 3-4 years old child a bootleg copycat of the game (i think they gave us that game because of my older sister), not a console version of the game because I only get a console per se (a PS2 btw) when I was 6, but a real ripoff of the game in a mini console. And from what I remember, it was the most loathing thing I ever played as a infant. Even I remember the NES 30 games on 1 console ripoff we had with more nostalgia because it had very good emulations of games of that era, especially I loved playing Circus Charlie when I was a child.
@@3X3Arg oh wow that is a mess. I think I have a good idea what it may look like because I saw many ripoff games when I tried to find an official DDR mat on Amazon (and especially Alibaba)
I still like Dance Central. But they wanted to make a dance game that lets players dance free-handed.
I don't know dance central
honestly the idea of using a smart watch to track your movement is actually pretty cool, and i'm surprised that ubisoft hasn't tried to do something like that yet
true true it is really smart!
*whistles* wow I actually grew up with Nickelodeon dance on the 360- Just the original though, I never knew there was a sequel until a couple years ago
I just never enjoyed it as a kid though but not for the graphics, but rather I was scared shitless of the Kinect-
Small me was like: I fear no graphics, but that. thing. *pans to the motion sensor* IT SCARES ME.
Honestly hooroo dance is the only good just dance rip off and it didn’t even have a bad songlist, the only bad thing about it is VIP
2:01, the one problem with dance central is that they don’t play the entire songs, but just dance does
I knew you would bring up Horro dance!
the comments on the channel are hillarious
Ikr! Loll
@@Just.Jasper
Why can I translate to your comment
Fun fact, just dance was originally going to be called we dance
It just sounds like a flop, bootleg dance series 😭😭😭
@@elijahtorres2688 it is, but was just sharing some trivia
@@Draven_starboy yeah, I am aware of the beta name (since I saw a ton of the beta elements throughout the series). I just thought the old name was funny lol.
@@elijahtorres2688 yeah, glad Ubisoft went with the more unique name it did
FINALLY SOMEONE MADE A VIDEO LIKE THIS
Someone had to do it! Lol 🐼💙
3:56 you’ll never believe it
With them taking only girl in keep dance, they didn't just take Only Girl, they took Redoo's remake of it.
Yeah I made a note of that at the bottom but you have to pause to read, thank you though!
I would love to see a K-Pop dance game made today.
Real
they would have to have a huge budget for the songs alone
@@gabesvideosofficial If hooroo dance can afford a GIDLE SONG we could technically
this ate so much! hooroo dance is quite quite weird bc i played it the other day
I dont think sharing songlists isnt a real indicactor of a rip-off. After all, the songs picked fot these tend to be popular big hits or made up songs so its inevitable for those kinds od similarities
honestly, watching this has made me really now appreciate the production that goes into jd!
At least Dance central hit gold and was good though
16:59 I had the first games in the series
fr and I still have it on my xbox 360
I have none and I'll never play it
Growing up I played High School Musical, Victorious (because of siblings) and Nickelodeon Dance (mainly cause I was a Fresh Beat Band fan at the time)
Holy Hell, I grew up with Country Dance. Obviously, I think it’s absolute crap now, but it was my gateway to real Just Dance games, so I have a small soft spot for it.
my mom always played zumba when we had the wii back then, it was kinda fun but we played played it for like, one day, then we stopped
Honestly, I feel like "these songs were already in JD" is less likely due to ripping off, than it is "oh these songs are really freaking popular, let's pick songs lots of people like!!"
The Nickelodeon characters look like they’re people in costumes.
No, the Nickelodeon Characters are made in 3d.
how are some of these routines easier than the easiest Easy rated map in JD
i remember 100%ing nickelodeon dance on the xbox 360 in 2020 and never playing it again after that
Dance central will ALWAYS be that girl
Real tbh
Nah I don't like it
the k-pop one isn’t really bland, but all those dances are from the original MV lol
21:56
Him saying that he can’t compare any songs for keep dance
Baby shark: OK I PULL UP
It was some kind of weird remix though so it wouldn't have matched up
@@Just.Jasper ok, makes sense
what about kill this love 💀😭
@@anuhspongbub there was only 2 videos of gameplay I could find and neither of them showed kill this love
@@Just.Jasper oki
7:41 Are those Just Dance 1-styled pictos?? 😯
IDK They look like stick figures
Dance central is more professional. The moves are more intricate. Just dance is more approachable for sure but again if you want a more hardcore game then I'll stick with Dance Central.
I pick the Just Dance Series and Nickelodeon Dance
In my opinion, I like all just dance rip-offs except for Nickelodeon dance games
HOW DARE YOU 😡😡 NICKELODEON DANCE IS MY FAVORITE GAME AND YOU HATE IT?! YOU'RE CRINGE
@@HalleWomack NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! IT WAS MY OPINION!
THE K-POP DANCE GAME AAA I FORGOT ABT IT I SAW IT ON YT TRYING TO FIND JD WIIU
JD WiiU icon
get up and dance is actually kinda loved in the community, you can search and find some remakes (with new just dance pictos) and mods!
Danz Base is a pretty weird Dance Central Clone. Found it on a cruise ship and it was surprisingly good.
did you know that konami (the same from DDR) actualy made an dance game with more JD type of gameplay? it was dance evolution, it had a arcade version and a xbox 360 version, and now there is dance around, that is a dance evolution sequel kinda off, but more anime-ish (there was even hatsune miku if i remember it correctly)
and DDR for wii actualy had a coregraphy mode with the dance pad (but way better than we dance)
Dance evolution mentioned
HELP THE KEEP DANCE IS JUST STEALING SOME FANMADE JD'S
The way that just dance 2025 has different difficulty’s for dances and poker face is kinda ironic
Actually all the choreos of the Everybody Dance have 3 difficulty each
Just Dance is the dance game that started it all
20:37 wait why is that dance kinda good?
Do Not Play Keep Dance! That Is The Worst Japanese Rip Off Of Just Dance Series! 20:49
Off topic (kinda?) but the only thing I'll say is that I hate ubisoft for not releasing any other Hip Hop Dance Experience cause that game was sooo good...
i think the reason for such crappy rip-offs are the massive costs you need for everything like almost every coach in all of the 40 songs have diffrent outfits every year also the amount of time and effort you need to just make a concept for a song is incredible. I think that many big companies are not into that, they would rather make a quick cash grab that satisfies their wallets. At this time and moment i think just dance is by far the best dancing game of all time and the only game that comes close to that is dance central especially dance central 3. Those two are the most enjoyable to play for me.
I remember Aleechi danced to Baila Latino 😂😂😂😂 It was soooo hilarious!
Just get Just Dance and save money and time
20:07
that is dynamite
This dudes on high
The big time game could be the reason of the replacement of the songs of big time rush in just dance kids
AI voice... WHY?!
Why not? :/
maybe they can't record their voice or just don't feel comfortable putting their voice on the internet
@@AverokageMashups exactly 👍
oh hey
Anime game use to be the official horoo dance channel
In the mel b game they ripped of Just Dance 1 avatars
7:54 lmao
im sorry but what was that dance 😭 15:59
Cory Martin left da chat
I have just dance 2024 on my Nintendo switch
Isn’t dance on broadway also a crappy game (no footloose means no show)
its by ubisoft so probably why it wasn't included
Do more please
We dance is a beta name for jd, lol.
What about naming coaches part 2
Don't worry it'll come!
21:32 Like semen now
I hate all rip-off dance games except Nickelodeon Dance
15:10
Dance central feels like one tbh, it's not terrible but some of the dances are an oof
i have played everybody dance and it's horrible
HEY
THIS MF USING THEM AI SCRIPTS!!!!
No, these are all my genuine thoughts and opinions on these games that I took a little under 2 weeks to write out. The only thing ai generated in this video is the text to speech voice I used.
I think he just uses an ai voice instead of his voice
