Hello, everyone. My name...my REAL name...is Alex Williams. I am currently a writer for the 411Games website. A few of you might remember the interview I conducted with Order of Chaos a while back before Ultramix was officially released. Anyway, now I wish to do a full-blown feature on the history of the game for the site, and I'm looking for any help I can get on the subject.

As of right now, the feature is in its preliminary and planning stages. I'm currently working on arranging all the games in chronological order. Once that is done, I'll be writing brief descriptions on (hopefully) each entry in the DDR series. Some entries will contain more information than others (ala Extreme gets more coverage than Disney Rave). However, while my knowledge of the games are high, there are gaps in the knowledge I must fill and mistakes I must correct. That is why I am asking the community here at DDRFreak to help me with my research. Anyone who helps contributes information will be credited in the final product, guaranteed.

The first thing I need is clarrification on the release dates of the games. The post below contains a complete (or near complete) listing of DDR and Dancing Stage games in what I believe are the years of their releases. Some games I have release dates for, others I do not. I want to make ABSOLUTELY sure that I have an accurate list of games in chronological order. So, if people could supply me the release dates I'm missing (at least the month will do if the exact date isn't known), or correct any mistakes on the list, I would be greatful.

Eventually, I'll need things like game screenshots (mostly for the older titles) and information on some of the more obscure games. However, I'm not officially asking for them just yet. When I need items, I'll update this post specifically asking for them.

Thank you all in advance, and I appreciate any help you may be able to give.

Some minor errors/things I remember:

DDR 1st Mix (Arcade, Japan) was released in Oct. 1998
DDR 2nd Mix (Arcade, Japan) was released in Feb. 1999
DDR 4th Mix (Arcade, Japan) was released in Aug. 2000
DDR Max (Arcade, Japan) was released in Oct. 2001

That's to the best of my memory, anyways.

List updated to fix errors/update the changes.

This is great so far. Keep them coming! (And if any "exact" dates could be scared up, that would be even more helpful.)
