The unlock code for the DDR extreme give me such good memories. There was a DDR in my city that hadn't any secret songs unlocked, so i proposed to the owner about the possibility of unlock them all by a code. As they were ok with that, i printed the instructions and went to the arcade during the estabilished date. I remember that the whole city DDR community AND a techincian of the arcade company were present during that event. As i unlocked all the songs, the technician asked me to give him the paper sheet that contained the instructions, so he could do that in all the arcades they had. As thanks, that technician gave me an insane amount of tokens.

[@coten]

secret codes that can only be entered through strange input combos in the operators' settings menus are pretty common, from what i've seen! consider how those types of codes, and all of the game content hiding behind them *from the very first day the game would have been playable,* could be used to extend how long a game would stay fresh and relevant to arcade-goers, without having to update the hardware or software. it's hidden in the test menus for good reason: there's no chance that a random player is going to unlock that stuff without the key to the coin door, and even then, they need to know some ridiculous input codes to get what they're after! any arcade game's developers and publishers could just keep those unlock codes totally secret, until some time had passed since the game's release. then, they could quietly inform the games' owners about the hidden menus and codes in a letter or memo (possibly over several steps, like unlocking fighting game characters one at a time), and the owners could proceed with the unlock when they were ready, not when a player had figured out the secret or had played for long enough. naturally, the unlocked content would renew players' interest in the game, and therefore, the game would get a bump of extra *revenue* long after it was the hottest new thing on the floor - something that any arcade owner would want to have happen. kinda like a DLC release in the modern day, but again, no actual updates to the game's software - just something that was always there, being uncovered.

[@elllieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

Wouldn't it be easier to just set an abitrary counter that unlocks a new song for the whole machine every X plays/coins?

@@elllieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yeah! DDRs MAX, MAX 2, and EXTREME did this kind of thing! The more the machine got played, the faster songs would get unlocked. It was basically a communal experience, seeing what else could come up next on the song wheel!

It's funny seeing how a lot of basic features, such as hard difficulty and speed mods, were all hidden behind secret codes. I really wish the song codes for Extreme were easier to access- That's the DDR cab I see the most outside of Round 1, and I'm never able to get permission to input them. A bunch of my favorite songs are locked behind the code too...

[@Tsukiru]

I wonder how many other arcade games have cheet codes like this, of anything as weird as opening the operator menu, secret menu, and needing a secret code. For whatever reason.

[@mightygaming1365]

I recently had to enter a secret code on the operator menu of a Sega Naomi to unlock Gouki (Akuma) as a playable character in Capcom vs SNK. There are plenty more arcade games with codes like this.

[@ChoboUnjeon]

PIU also had a bunch of cheat codes entered on the pad until 2010 Fiesta where it was simplified into 4 codes and the rest was thrown into a modifier menu.

[@ZX3000GT1]

Soul Calibur has unlockable characters, unlocked the longer the machine is played.

[@rompevuevitos222]

There can be a couple of reasons -The devs wanted to be funny, happens more often than you'd think -The code was reserved for special events, allowing the publisher to organize events with the exclusive content in any arcade, without the need of making and shipping an special version. -It was planned as a form of "DLC". Making it some sort of challenge for the fans to uncover or simply selling new content that was already in the game, by providing the secret code after someone paid for this "DLC" (arcades are old and they used to charge money for less). Or simply offering arcade owners to pay for the upgrade -Or the most common: debugging

I have the theory that the PS1 secret mode was not meant to be found, but rather there was a tool the devs had that could activate the combination automatically. This could have easily been used for events or the tool could be sold as pseudo DLC. For example: releasing a new exclusive dancing mat for the PS1 that would unlock Manic mode when used. But the only thing it did was execute this combo by itself

[@nate567987]

Definitely did that Disney's Rave code at my local arcade. Disney's Rave is just such a unique mix that everyone needs to try out at least once and having Maniac unlocked means if you're an expert player, you're not stuck with only Basic and Trick. Note that Doubles does not have Maniac charts.

[@silverhawke]

i just wanna state arbitrary code execution (ACE) more precisely: it's essentially using glitches to gain the ability to make the game (or the console) run code that is injected by the player -- effectively this is the most broken a (playable) game can be, as you can overwrite its programming with literally anything else. ACE videos look like they're inputting random stuff and that's because you have to write machine code in some way into the memory, for the machine to execute it. they may use a data structure to precisely arrange machine instructions (e.g. Pokemon Red's bag arrangement), or just straight up take input from the player (i believe Super Mario World has a technique that utilizes this)

That was a trip way back then, when people thought that Maniac mode in the Disney games was a Disney Mix (US) exclusive with how easy it is to get it unlocked. It was literally "clear all songs on Trick". Granted, there was a bit of a difficulty jump with the imports from the mainline games in Disney Mix (B4U and My Summer Love comes to mind). And yeah, the weird gallop jacks in IASW Ducking Hardcore MSP (let alone the weird rating system for Maniac) ended up not being a KOA (Konami of America) thing

[@iconiclit8945]

KoJ still struggles with making good charts (the Golden League Challenge Charts in A3 for example tend to be misses like Give Me), KoA actually had better charts than them through the later Ultramix games and Universe series

I wonder why these cabinets all had something as basic as the hard difficulty locked behind a cheat code, or in some cases behind an undocumented cheat code in the freaking operator menu that the general public at your average arcade does not have access to. It’s absolutely fascinating stuff yet such a baffling design decision.

[@BinaryHedgehog1]

I know you’re focused on arcade version’s ns, but some CS games also have cute cheats. -Ultramix 1 and 2 have an unlock all songs cheat done by doing the Konami code in port 4 while in the credits. -Normally you have to play online to unlock Kosento and Zukin in UM2, but they can be temporarily unlocked by holding X and Y on port 4 in the options menu, though they’ll lock when the game is shut off. - UM3’s unlock all songs cheat involves doing the credits minigame with mirrors inputs for a few seconds. You can also unlock a song by booting the game on Christmas -UM4 has a very involved unlock all songs code where you have to highlight main menu options in a specific order with specific spacing.

oh my god the PSX Disney's Rave code.... yeah I remember the day someone figured out that was even IN the game (funny enough around the same time he also found the much easier equivalent code for the AC version) also I know the guy that stepped that *ridiculous* code as a chart! I never knew the other dancing stage spinoffs had equally as convoluted codes in the other games.

[@hlavco]

I always found it strange how Konami would put up obstacles to playing hard modes in the earlier games, when those are the modes that give the games the most replay value. And for some of the spinoff home versions, they would exclude hard charts entirely, which certainly isn't a move that would help sales. By the way, the arcade version of DDR SuperNOVA2 also included post-release song unlock codes that the players could input on the main screen. Unlike SuperNOVA, which forgot to include a method for American players to access the game's boss songs outside of Extra Stage.

[@cduke08]

I work at a local arcade who has a DDR machine with a custom software (can’t remember the name, will update when I remember) that has every DDR game, and over 5000+ custom songs. And whenever we need to reset it, it takes over an hour to load all the songs.

[@KiraSlith]

That sounds like some kind of crazy, illegal 3rd party (probably Chinese made) upgrade board. If you ever get the name let us know, it'd be way more convenient than needing a bunch of cabs, or a pile of difficult to store parts.

[@Pepperly]

My rhythm game corner had a Stepmania and then In-the-Groove cabs between DDR 5th and Extreme at different points (and before that there was a 7th mix there) that had existed for a few years until The Flooding. Stepmania was great because it ALSO had all the DDR songs and a zillion custom songs too, but the in-the-Groove cab that replaced it seemed lackluster in comparison.

I remember for DDRx on ps2 if you went into sorting songs by alphabet and selected D. R. O. P. S. you'd unlock sunkiss drops but the remix version early

[@turingsghost]

i actually had a Supernova 2 cabinet in decent condition at a bowling place near my house. i was aware of Round1 when i found it, but the nearest one was 45 minutes on a good day (the route went through Atlanta, though, so there was basically never a good day), so for the longest time if i ever just wanted a quick practice session that was my best bet. and let me tell you those codes were a BITCH to input. this isn't covered in the video but for Supernova there were certain songs that were supposed to be unlocked throughout the course of the game's lifespan, sort of like they are in modern times, but shit was rudimentary and downloading content wasn't an option so the charts and all were actually on-disk content that could unlock by either communicating with the server OR when the arcade's operator (or some rando) inputs some LONGASS codes. (they were doubles codes, too!) notably a lot of these songs were SN2's "boss" songs and this was still when the skill ceiling for DDR was being moved around a lot so of course you're going to want them for practice. THING IS there isn't a singular code for unlocking everything; every "stage" of the event had its own unlock code, and they all had to be entered IN ORDER. someone left the cabinet at the 3rd stage of the event before giving up, so i had to input every other code myself. also you have to put them in while under time pressure! there's only a small window in the demo screen where the code actually counts, so if you take too long you have to start over after that screen comes back around after a solid minute or so! so that shit took me a straight hour to do and it's time i'm not getting back.

This video reminded me of the infamous unlock code for the song Memories on the US PS2 version of DDR Extreme. For months on end people were frustrated about not being able to get a certain completion reward (I believe it was called Dance Master Mode but my memory is fuzzy). It was eventually discovered that Memories was in the game data but it was inaccessible. Someone on the DDRFreak forums who claimed to be a Konami insider assured people that the way to unlock the song would eventually be revealed, but as time went on people kept calling BS on that claim. The unlock code was eventually revealed, over a year later if I'm not mistaken, through some weird promotion with (I think) Burger King of all places.

this may be my favorite youtube video of all time. it so perfectly nails my interests that i honestly just wish there was more of this, idk if it’s the cheat codes or just the weird quirks of arcade games in general, it’s the same shit that makes Tetris The Grandmaster fascinating to me. there are so many odd quirks and cheats and none of it makes sense and it’s so interesting

[@Sevenigma777]

I've never once played this game but I do have memories of being on the NJ shore boardwalk and being in crowds of people watching others play this game lol

[@nacho8bc]

so glad i found your channel!!! been loving your videos on rhythm games and i'm looking forward to getting my hands on a bemini controller from you guys so i can get back into beatmania :)

[@technicolor965]

Your singing absolutely cheered me up, thank you

[@kobra9957]

i LOVE the sound design in this video

[@Deadude_]

I love the ddr related stuff and off topic stuff! Keep it goin kkclue

[@Coolio_Ash]

I wish I was good at these games. I always saw people going absolutely nutty on the pads back in the day they looked so goddamn cool

Hearing clue's singing is making me smile so wide

Disney's RAVE's Maniac code makes Raid 2020's skip level code look like the Konami Code

[@cosmicjenny4508]

And here I was thinking that the Unlock All Songs cheat in Guitar Hero III was difficult. I'd much rather hold a GRBO chord all day than have to go through that two-controller bullshit DDR Disney wants from me.

[@arbi9506]

Unlock All Songs on GH3 is super easy though. I've always found the GH2 cheats to be harder personally

[@WriggleNB]

Bemani games are pretty cool

[@UltraPoyoColt]

I really enjoy seeing you cover older DDR arcade games, espically with cheat codes and Japanese versions. I LOVE THAT! Thanks for covering this.

[@UltraPoyoColt]

But hold up… do you have access to EVERY DDR game in this video? It looks like you do. Cool!

[@ImaDireWolf]

i love so much these bemani vídeos hope you keep doing them

[@edwinmiller912]
