Master Hydraffe: I already touched upon that. Being a promotional routine does not mean the routine has to suck. We've had plenty of promotional routines that didn't. "You Make Me Feel..." was one of the highlights of Just Dance 4, in my opinion, and it started its life as a promotional routine. "Make the Party (Don't Stop)" was good. I thoroughly enjoyed "Movement is Happiness (Find Your Thing)", "The World is Ours" and "Taste the Feeling". Say what you want about the Coca Cola songs, but none of them can be accused of being lazy or badly made routines.

I also think that "Chiwawa (Barbie Version)" was well done. Sure, it was simplistic, just that was more of a JD2017 thing than a promo thing (in fact, most promo songs have been more energetic and hard than the classics of their games).

And this time, Ubisoft is doing a promotion for themselves (and Nintendo). They're using their own IP, so I think it's likely they'll put some extra effort into it. They wouldn't want to make themselves look bad, now would they?

They also have a good track record with their own material. Most Ubisoft originals, especially as of late, have good routines. "Sugar Dance" and "All You Gotta Do (Is Just Dance)" are two of my favourites this year. "Make the Party (Don't Stop)" was fun and energetic and good party song.

Am I expecting the best routine we've ever seen? No. But neither am I expecting pure crap. It'll probably be at least serviceable, but I think it'll be at least good. People just need to put their feelings about the Rabbids aside. The last time people screamed their heads off about how the Rabbids were going to ruin a franchise, Ubisoft cranked out "Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle", which got 85% on Meta Critic.
