For a plump plumber, Mario sure can boogie down. Yesterday the US version of Dance Dance Revolution with Mario arrived, and in a first for any DDR title, there's a full storyline mode where Waluigi stole the Music Keys. Without these, the unstable power of sound is wreaking havoc on the land, and Mario himself must recover them before the chaos destroys the entire Mushroom Universe! As you complete the levels, you'll unlock 12 fun filled mini games, like running as fast as possible to jump up the flag pole classic NES style, catching bananas falling from the sky, or playing Whack-A-Goomba. Another all new addition is the Gimmick setting, having you dance while at the same time avoiding (or sometimes aiming at) classic Mario obstacles on screen like Goombas, Koopas or hammers.

Players can have fun getting into shape with the special 'Workout' feature, which tracks the calories burned while playing, or dance with a friend on split screen multi-player. There's 29 different dance-flavored songs included, from classic Nintendo themes to familiar favorites. The line-up boasts those from Super Mario Bros. and others in the series, to Mario Party 5, Mario Kart 64 and Double Dash, Donkey Kong, Wario World, Paper Mario RPG, Dr Mario and much more. Full of colorful graphics bursting with unmistakable Mushroom Kingdom charisma, and with no noticeable loading (just a million "warning" screens, haha), Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix certainly has that polished Nintendo Disney-like quality. All the pre-orders have been shipped already, and new orders are welcome anytime.
