概况

• First BEMANI game to run on KONAMI's PlayStation-based System 573 Analog hardware.
• DanceDanceRevolution is also known as "version 1.0".
  • From DanceDanceRevolution X, both versions (1 and 1.5) are combined into a single folder, labeled DDR 1st.
• DanceDanceRevolution has the first introduction video of the series during the opening credits.
• The game features promotional materials related to the Dancemania series during the opening credits. This would continue to be the case until EXTREME.
• The game features an announcer which was used until DanceDanceRevolution 2ndMIX CLUB VERSiON2.
• The music selection screen is a jukebox-like menu with CD covers, each representing a song available to play.
• Three play style options are available: SINGLE, DOUBLE, and COUPLE.
  • DOUBLE requires a step code to activate.
• Three play modes are available: EASY, NORMAL, and HARD.
  • The modes primarily differ in the songs available for selection.
  • EASY only allows one song, but the game will not end early if the dance gauge empties.
  • NORMAL and HARD allow three songs but will end the game early if the dance gauge empties. An EXTRA STAGE can also be earned in both of these modes.
  • The Single BASIC charts of BUTTERFLY and KUNG FU FIGHTING vary depending on the mode. The game uses slightly easier variations when playing on EASY or NORMAL, whereas it uses the standard BASIC charts for HARD mode. The easier variants were not used in any future games in the series.
• Only two dance levels can be selected: BASIC and ANOTHER (DIFFICULT).
  • The difficulty is selected via a step code when choosing the play mode.
  • Only DanceDanceRevolution game where the gate transition effect uses different colors depending of the difficulty and mode played (a darker shade of yellow/white for ANOTHER, as well as light blue for DOUBLE).
• The difficulty is rated in a foot rating scale of 1 to 7 for all the dance levels available on each song:
  • BEGINNER (1 foot), AVERAGE (2 feet), NOVICE (3 feet), EXPERT (4 feet), PROFESSIONAL (5 feet), MASTER (6 feet), HERO (7 feet)
• Only one modifier is available, the TURN option MIRROR, which requires a step code to be entered on the dance stage.
• The default arrow color is FLAT, and the default arrow design (later called CLASSIC) has a V-shaped cut on its tail end.
• AFRO, LADY, KONSENTO:01 (コンセント1号), OSHARE-ZUKIN (おしゃれずきん), DISC-A and DISC-B (輪っか) are the only selectable characters. By default, AFRO is player 1 and LADY is player 2.
  • During gameplay, the selected character appears on screen dancing in front of animations.
  • Unlike future games, the animations that are played are determined by the current stage and the characters used.
  • To identify the choreography used by the dancer, the game shows on screen the type of dance currently in use. Showing the dance type is a feature only found in DanceDanceRevolution and its Internet Ranking Version. The list of choreographies is as follows:
    • HIPHOP, FUNK, LOCK, CAPOEIRA, JAZZ, SOUL, HOUSE, HOPPING, WAVE
• The possible judgments for stepping are PERFECT!!!, GREAT!!, GOOD!, BOO! and MISS.
• The possible rank results for a song are S, A, B, C, and D.
• First game in the series to have an EXTRA STAGE system. This system would not return until DDRMAX's release.
• Total songs: 9
