Another reason why the game sputtered away: This was Naoki's pet project and he had his falling out with Konami within the first year of the arcade release.
@@otaking3582 No it didn't. The 360 S and later models had a dedicated Kinect port. That's why a separate USB adapter was made for original 360 models.
I'd love to see you cover the Dance Evolution-like genre. Dance Central, Danz Base, Dance aRound, etc. I guess the latter two might be tough to be comprehensive on since they're still active.
Microsoft still releases and produces new Kinects, if I'm not mistaken precisely for more industrial applications. I therefore doubt that the lack of support for the hardware is any reason. On top of that, we have excellent AI solutions now that are good enough to provide the same, if not better, tracking quality the original Kinect did, with normal cameras. For the Kinect, the depth image was required for the AI to properly detect anything, it basically matched the body outline to a pose. Newer solutions such as mediapipe are fast and reliable enough to replace the Kinect. If anyone wants to make an osu!-like DanEvo Fangame, hit me up. I'm a C++ and Rust programmer, but I'm not scared of C# or Unity.
I remember that awkward E3 presentation for this game back in 2010. Shame I wasn't aware of this game 10 years ago when I did have a Kinect, because I've grown into J-Pop content since 2018.
Our man Naoki was done dirty at that time lmao For context: Naoki Maeda is one of KONAMI's music legends, a lot of contributions under DDR and recently was involved with rhythm games like crossbeats.REV, SEVENS CODE, and the like.
A little thing I noticed: the game had the option to either go offline or stay online but receive no more updates, I remember seeing a DanEvo cab running online back in 2019 at a mall in Thailand on real e amuse servers
@@losermanwins4338 no problem! you can always look through remywiki for some info, its very helpful ^^ on the page for it, you can also find a link to the (archived) site at the very bottom

This is honestly one the most interesting series I have ever watch. Keep doing such high quality content!
i wonder if dance around will become what danevo could've been
No. Nothing will ever be iconic like dance evolutuon.
If you have a 360 Kinect and a usb adapter, you can run this on Windows!
Omg how
Adapter? But the Kinect uses USB. As long as you download the necessary drivers, you don't need any adapters.
@@otaking3582 The 360 Kinect doesn't have USB, it needs a usb adapter.
@@eink-reviews No, it used USB like pretty much every 360 and PS3 peripheral.

At this rate, DanEvo is a sub-genre.

Dance Evolution,, I really miss that game so much,,☺️☺️😆
Awesome content here my man.
My buddy and I were very impressed.

its surprising charming and fun, i normally play pump but this is at my arcade and I'm really getting into it :D
Wait, that last version actually exists at my local arcade. Unless it's a slightly different version.
@@np6822 Round One arcades usually have those. They're in major areas. Like mine is in the big mall where I live, for example.
Din don dan is so gooooodd!!
5:33 aye that's animal Kaiser in the background I love that game

Does this mean offline version can't let you log-in to check tour account?
I'm quite suspicious if Evo is still alive.
@@viviantan1034 you were never able to check your account on an offline game and maybe it's changed but i recall there was a secondary option
@@NiceCZcamsr And what kind of option is that?
@@viviantan1034 to stay online but never receive any more updates
@@NiceCZcamsr Sounds familiar...
Has been one of my biggest special interests since was a toddler
Keep up the good work man!!
Dead rhythm game? I just discovered this rhythm and loving, with that cute Japanese singing voice mmm.
Another dancing game? (Also nice video)
I'm not late today.
yea and now we have dancearound
Dancearound will never be as iconic as dance masters.
Awesome video and channel bro! Can't believe you don't have more subs given this immense production value. Keep up the good work!
neat series! :-) can you talk about pop’n stage next :o?
Pop'n Stage is a bit sparse on info but it is on my list to cover in some capacity. Thanks for the suggestion!

That barrier where you can float in the ait is a cheat, must be removed.
even if i can buy the machine i would say no, because most of the song that i saw have girly dance
Why let that stop you?
