Nintendo GameCube Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix (USA)
4Dance Dance Revolution with Mario (ダンスダンスレボリューション ウィズ マリオ, Dansu Dansu Reboryūshon Uizu Mario?), later released as Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix in North America and Dancing Stage Mario Mix in Europe, is a 2005 music video game developed by Konami and published by Nintendo for the GameCube. It is the first Dance Dance Revolution game to be released on a Nintendo video game console outside of Japan.
Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix predominantly features characters, music, and locations from the Mario franchise. The game is bundled with the dance pad controller.
The game opens with Waluigi stealing the four Music Keys, who can grant wishes, from Truffle Towers. However, when he tries to open the door to the room containing the Music Keys, three of them scatter across the Mushroom Kingdom, and the fourth one is kept by Waluigi. From a distance, Toad watches these events unfold and rushes to tell Mario or Luigi, depending on which character the player chose, who then rushes off to retrieve the missing Music Keys.
The keys are recovered by completing tasks for other characters who have found the scattered keys and then defeating them in a dance challenge. These characters are, in order, Waluigi, Pirate Lakitu, Blooper, Hammer Bros., Wario and Freezie.
Toad and the player's character then return the Music Keys to Truffle Towers. Soon after, Bowser steals the keys, but is followed by Toad and the player's chosen character. They enter Bowser's Castle to recapture the Music Keys, and are promptly challenged by Bowser. After defeating him in a dance-off, Toad and the player's character return the Music Keys to Truffle Towers for the final time, as the game's ending sequence plays
The music featured in the game was featured with the level number, song name, and origin so players new to this game, or those unfamiliar with the songs can refer to the music that the song came from.
