You know, I never understood the hype for the Just Dance series. I never had even played one of these games, so I thought to myself, "Hey! I should try the first game!" I booted it up, played for about 10 minutes and realized that it's definitely the first Just Dance game. I didn't understand how it was this game that spawn a series with a vast number of these. I realized that this was a Wii dancing game. Of course everyone loved it. Everyone had a Wii. However, it's just so lifeless. The menus make me feel nothing when I pick a song. These songs are for sure a time capsule. The motion controls are laughably bad. Even if you follow the moves perfect, you'll miss. I understand it's a Wii game from 2009, but this was a mediocre Wii game at the time, and now it's a soulless game that everyone forgot about as they're playing the new one, which I'm sure is the same game with more modern songs and better controls

I appreciate this game, because it is first in the series. And the most horrible one. The budget was veery low. I like the songs and the dances, they are not too hard, because it's mostly basic moves, sometimes too repetitive. The tracking doesn't work most of the time

Quizas en la actualidad esta edicion pareceria obsoleta pero para ser el primer volumen nos presento buenos exitos y coreografias. Estableciendo el legado de esta franquicia de videojuego bailable.

Catálogo decente de canciones, bailes sencillos pero divertidas. No obstante quiere que el juego sea una maravilla. Ya qué tiene un enorme problema: sus controles, hice bien los pasos qué supuestamente eran fácile, pero no me registró bien el movimiento. También su menú luce... "Decente" pero apagado.

[RU] Первый блин комом. Но какой! У игры много отличных (даже мемных) песен, а также весёлых хореографий. Да, графон никакой, а управление ещё хуже. Но игра даёт неплохой экспириенс. Ну и в придачу у неё есть бессмысленные режимы, в которые нету смысла играть (потому засчитывает ужасно)

The first Just Dance game ever made. The only game to be released in the 2000s. This has to be good, right? NO! The graphics are horrendous, the soundtrack/features are lacklustre, and the controls are ABYSMAL! Most of the time, when I do a move the best I can, I get Xs! This is way more shovelware than an actual quality game. No wonder this game has a 49 on Metacritic. I hate it. Get it away.

A game that broke so badly that it ended up being a complete legend of the genre.

Bad Scoring it’s biased against you. Not fair for getting highscores even if you dance perfectly

I do the moves in the exactly how the game does it but it is unresponsive to what I do. I never win because the game is so random when it comes to the movements even when I do the moves exactly the way they are shown on screen.

I better set my self in going to the Disco with my friends and girlfriend rather than playing this. This is a reason why some software developers still don't understand to work with the WII games. In Fact the game doesn't even have a big music list , giving the option to throw it in the antique stuff . Also, the movement aren't readable , well, most of them, so is easy too cheat.

Multiplayer this game and you'll have laughs, laughs and guess what? MORE LAUGHS!
The game makes you DANCE, not just step here or there, dance! The only bad thing in this game is the ausense of level choise and the fact that the game comes with all song unblock! There's no purpose playing singleplayer to unlock things or "fight" with another dancer :(

Just dance is pretty awesome ! You have have a wide range of songs they you know nearlly all of them. It picks your moves up so accuratley. If you like to loose weight I could tell you it made me loose weight more than the 'Wii fit' because when I came off it and went on the wii fit I lost my weight to my target.

The official reviewers dont understand what this game is all about. You start up the game and you just dance. There's no modern unlocking of things, there are no controls other than holding the wiimote. You just have fun and dance. Very well done for non-gamers and people who just want to dance and not be bothered with anything else. Lots of fun when family gathers around.

I play a LOT of games, and there is no denying that in technical terms (graphics, responsiveness, variety) this is pretty poor. On the other hand, it achieves exactly what the Wii is supposed to achieve: getting people off the sofa and engaging with their friends and families through games. Today I had 3 neighbours and 4 kids all dancing and hooting with laughter for about an hour. Priceless.
