The DanceDanceRevolution Classic Mini crowdfunding project began on October 10, 2023 and is a popular project that has raised over 81 million yen in support.

This game console is a remake of the DanceDanceRevolution cabinet, approximately one-fifth the size of the original, measuring 39.9cm high x 32.5cm wide x 35.7cm deep, and features a 5-inch monitor.



The game software includes three titles: 'DanceDanceRevolution', 'DanceDanceRevolution 2ndMIX' and 'DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX'. You can select and play them from the dedicated game launcher. The original DanceDanceRevolution was a music game played with your feet, but DanceDanceRevolution Classic Mini is one-fifth the size of the original, so you can play with your hands as well as your feet.



You can play games on the built-in monitor, or connect it to a TV with an HDMI cable to output the video. By connecting the 'Dance Dance Revolution dedicated controller' to be released by Konami Amusement, you can play games using your feet as usual.



DanceDanceRevolution Classic Mini will be available for pre-order from Friday, April 26, 2024 at ZUIKI STORE , the official ZUIKI EC site, with a retail price of 49,500 yen (tax included). It is also planned to be available at electronics retailers.
