Unused Graphics

Various unused graphics can be found in DATA/FILEDATA.BIN on the game's disc.

Mode Select

A graphic for Joint Premium, an arcade-only functionality. It also goes unused in the Japanese Dance Dance Revolution Extreme PlayStation 2 release.

Song Select

A shoshinsha mark graphic, possibly intended to be displayed in songs with a rating of 2 or lower in Basic, as is in Dance Dance Revolution 5thMIX and its home port.

The memory card icons from the arcade Dance Dance Revolution Extreme, although recolored to fit Party Collection's theme. Doesn't change its unused status, though.

Another leftover from the arcade release, in which are displayed edits saved in the machine's flash memory. It was also recolored for this game.

This sorting banner is a leftover from Dance Dance Revolution Extreme.

While graphics for such a function exists, it's not possible to sort by series in this game.

Gameplay

The unused "Freeze" judgment makes another appearance in this installment.

Demo Leftovers

These graphics are leftovers from the demo of the American release of DDRMAX.

Placeholder Banner

An obviously placeholder banner.
