Hand Gestures and New Gimmicks Although loaded all the familiar mat mashing DDR fun, in utilizing the motion sensing capabilities of the Wii Remote, DanceDanceRevolution Hottest Party 2 also brings new moves to the floor in the form of Hand Gestures and Gimmicks. Hand gestures require players to keep time to the rhythm of songs, beyond the step pattern they dance to, by shaking the Wii Remote or Nunchuck. In effect this adds a third dimension to the traditional front to back/side to side gameplay, resulting in an even more full-body experience. In addition, if players so choose they can also up their difficulty level through Gimmicks. Through these players can briefly alter the game's UI--for example delaying the appearance of on-screen arrows--forcing them to rely on their rhythm instead of screen prompts and in the process pick up major bonuses. Key Game Features:
All-new soundtrack includes smash-hits from the last 4 decades as well as Konami originals, boss battle songs and videos.
Dance mat included with game.

The New Hottest Training Mode Finally, DanceDanceRevolution Hottest Party 2 also includes a new lesson track system.

As "left,right"..."front, back" etc. are called out all dance floor newbies have to do to place their feet accordingly on the mat and there you have it. You've joined the DanceDance revolution. So, whether you are new to the DDR universe, or a master of the disco ball, get ready to become the life of the party, the Hottest Party, with DanceDanceRevolution Hottest Party 2 for the Wii gaming system.

I gave the Wii Dance Dance Revolution to my 9 yr old grand daughter for Christmas. A few days later I asked her if she had tried it yet. Her eyes lit up and she said she really really liked it! She is a bit of a book worm and I gave it to her hoping that it would get her up off the couch and provide some physical activity to balance her day.
Hottest Party 2:
My kids have played with this a few times since Christmas. They are 8 and 11. Their biggest complaint is that the screens/narrator talk and go to fast. Maybe they will get used to it as they play it, but so far they get frustrated and quit. It is a neat game that I think they will like, but it may take a few more tries.
Dancing Fun:
Bought this for the grandkids - ages 6 and 4 - they love it and it keeps them active!
Lots of fun:
Wife's christmas gift. She loves it! Menu not the best I have seen in the Wii games if so would have given a 5 star
