Release
The game was released in North America on May 15, 2006, with the first confirmed sighting at Disneyland in Anaheim, California at the Tomorrowland Starcade. Its release in Japan was delayed slightly so that the game software could be updated to fix the reported timing issues, and was later released with an extra song (the aforementioned remix of Flow) in late July 2006.
Music
The arcade release of SuperNova contains 304 songs, of which 120 are all-new additions to the game. The arcade release of SuperNova 2 contains 357 songs, of which 62 are all-new additions to the game.
Sequel
Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova 2, sometimes abbreviated as DDR SuperNova 2, was released on September 25, 2007 by Konami to the North American PlayStation 2 audience. SuperNova 2 features the standard gameplay modes as well as new modes to challenge seasoned players. The soundtrack ranges from classic Konami Originals to new pop and dance standards like music from Justin Timberlake, Gwen Stefani, Ian Van Dahl and Goldfrapp. Also featured is EyeToy support for additional gameplay elements as well as mini-games using the camera and online play through the PlayStation Network allowing players to face-off with other players across the country. Released for the PlayStation 2 before the multi-regional arcade version of Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova 2, the game gave American players a peek at the refined game engine and graphical improvements that were to come. The game was well received as a solid addition to the DDR lineup.
Reception
The PlayStation 2 release of SuperNova and SuperNova 2 received mixed reviews. For the first title, GameSpot and IGN each gave it a 7 out of 10 rating. Eurogamer gave Dancing Stage SuperNova a 6 out of 10.
