![]() After the initial jokes about embarrassing ourselves and being awful dancers, we started the dances. The hard level builds once more and makes the moves more complicated.Įach song – despite my complete lack of dancing skills – was so much fun. ![]() While the movements are only tracked through the hand you’re holding the controller in, it’s hard not to shimmy your shoulders or move your feet as your character does. The medium level gets slightly more difficult, involving more leg movements. Easy was, indeed, quite simple with a variety of hand motions. There is a fourth, extreme level, but we hadn’t played enough to unlock that. We danced to one song on each level: easy, medium and hard. The game is played similarly to the Wii version, you hold a controller in one hand and follow the moves of dancers on the screen. Don’t get me wrong – I appreciate the diversity and having a variety of genres, however personally I always find Just Dance more fun when I know the songs. While some of that may just be that I don’t listen to a lot of current pop music, it was probably also due to the large number of artists and songs from other cultures in a variety of languages that were featured. I recognized only a few titles and hadn’t even heard of many of the artists featured. When my husband set up the game, however, I was floored. While it was a long time ago, I remember at least recognizing every song included in the game. However, it also included classic songs, such as “Superstition” by Stevie Wonder, “Jailhouse Rock” by Elvis Presley and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” by Boys Town Gang. Back then we played on Nintendo’s Wii console and the list of songs on the game included pop hits such as “Call Me Maybe” by Carly Rae Jepson, “Disturbia” by Rihanna and “Super Bass” by Nicki Minaj. ![]() I have vivid memories of Saturday night sleepovers in high school where my friends and I would spend hours playing Just Dance 4. Now I’m no stranger to the Just Dance franchise. ![]() However, given the vast amount of free time I’ve found myself with recently, he’s convinced me to try several new games, this week was Just Dance 2020 on the Nintendo Switch console. Something always prevents me from giving a chunk of my time to a video or computer game. Normally when my game-obsessed husband begs me to play video games with him I’m too busy, I have a lot of work to do or I’m wrapped up in one of my own interests/hobbies. In my house, we’re heading into week three of working from home full time. ![]()
