1.0 FAQ Description
--------------------------------------

Although the original Dance Dance Revolution arcade game did not rely much
on unique or creative character designs, the newest titles have grown to include
quite a distinct bunch of personalities. And, with each new version we receive,
the characters are shuffled back and forth (within home and arcade releases of
any particular title). As of this moment, there are a total of thirty-two unique
character personalities in the game. When including variant costumes on these,
there are over fifty character models to choose from. The purpose of this FAQ is
to either introduce or explain the characters to players of the game (veterans
or newbies) and keep an orderly roster list of them all (and besides, before 3rd
Mix was out, the game never even told you the names of these characters).

The "generation one" includes the characters from the first DDR game.
Generation two includes those characters who were new to DDR 2nd Mix. Generation
four, then, obviously includes the characters who were new to DDR 4th Mix. And
so on. The current trend is for each new game to include four new teams (each
with a male and female character) for a total of eight new characters per
generation. For each home console DDR title that is released, the game has
always been sure to include every character from the previous games along with
the new generation. And, characters from previous versions tend to carry over
and be used in the later titles (even in the arcade).

The generations will be listed only as the "newcomers" for each title. They
will be numbered one to eight, according to their naturally selectable order. As
for the selectable character list, for each specific arcade or home console
title, those will be listed in the final section. In this "game title character
select" section, the entire list of selectable character "models" will be listed
for each DDR game (which, in most cases, involves a secondary or third model of
a few key characters). The "master model list" at the end sorts every character
model to appear in any DDR game, alphabetically.

GameFAQs (www.gamefaqs.com) for hosting this FAQ, along with more great
gaming info than most any site out there. Keep up the good work, man. Without
GameFAQs... where would we all go for detailed game help? Sure, lotsa places
have great code archives, and some TRY to keep all the best FAQs. But who
succeeds? Only one, my friend ^_^ Jeff "CJayC" Veasey does an astounding, daily
job of organizing these entries (and he writes his own wonderful FAQs). I must
also give a hearty thanks to Al Amaloo, the maintainer of Videogame Strategies
(vgstrategies.about.com). He has completed perhaps the best and most extensive
archive of codes and tricks (www.gamewinners.com) and written extensive guides
for games that would go otherwise un-covered. And what makes these two men (Jeff
Veasey and Al Amaloo) so special... is that they provide an invaluable service
to the gaming community out of the goodness of their heart. They work hard,
every day, without the help of any major affiliate. Bravo to both of you!

The wonderful patrons of my own message board, the OtherWorlds Shrine
(www.tows.org) which is sometimes the only refuge for the true gamer. Along with
my friend SineSwiper, we keep the shrine alive as a place for gamers to
respectfully speak and get together while online. The friends that I have made
there have meant the world to me, despite how my "real life" sometimes drags me
offline for days at a time. Either way, here's to ya'll... and I won't mention
any names (as there are too many of you to possibly remember them all now. And
you'll kill me if I miss any, hehe). The place has been around for years, and I
guarantee that it will always exist as long as there is an Internet.

The select few of my OFF-line friends who love gaming almost as much as
myself, and keep me inspired to keep on playing. Tacchi, you're as obsessed over
games as me. We've been gaming for well near two decades. We're getting old,
dude. And Crystal, well you can kick most of our sorry arses ^_^ Steffannee...
you introduced me to Will in Rival Schools! Scott, you've been a pal through it
all, despite how you suck at games ^_^ Kathryn, your love and understanding will
always be cherished (yes, call me sappy). And Alex, you've been there since we
were infants, when the NES was only a dream in the semi-near future. Chris,
you're one of my dearest friends (as well as one of the most eerily unique).
Your love for the Butterfly song and the goofy dance you do... will always bring
a smile to my face.

And of course, thanks go out to Lynn and Donna! You two are a few of the
only people who love Pop 'n Music (and Bust a Move of course) as much as I do.
Every time we meet is a cherished moment. And, speaking of music games, I owe a
world of thanks to Malcolm. His friendship has meant a ton to me, and he's one
of those few folks who plays and works hard at ALL the music game series just
like I do (Beatmania, Dance Dance Revolution, Pop 'n Music, Bust a Move, and the
countless other Bemani titles as well). And to the fans of music games,
worldwide, i offer the greatest thanks of all. Our demand is what keeps this
amazing genre of games coming back to us every month.

Konami, Sony, Sega, and all the great companies and people who made the game
possible. Without them, we'd never have been introduced to this wonderous world,
beautiful characters, and a style of gaming that changed our lives. These Bemani
games, like Dance Dance Revolution, are perhaps my favorite genre out there
right now. It gives those folks with a "rhythmical sense" a way to convey that
sense through gaming. And besides, it beats having another cookie-cutter RPG or
fighter to deal with.
