Step by Step

"Step by Step" by New Kids on the Block is featured on Just Dance, Just Dance 3 (as a DLC for Xbox 360), Just Dance: Greatest Hits, Just Dance Now and Just Dance Unlimited.

Original
The dancer is a man, wearing a light blue hat with an orange stripe, an orangeish redish t-shirt, a light blue pair of overalls and sneakers. He also wears a light blue wristband on his left forearm and an orange wristband on his right forearm. He looks like a farmer.

Remake
Every feature that was originally blue is now green, and the orange parts are pink. The outfit is made to look more realistic.

Just Dance
The background is basic blue, with light blue blocks at the bottom, and light blue animated lines streaking during the song. There is a pink shiny floor.

Just Dance 3 and Just Dance: Greatest Hits/Best Of
The background is now much more detailed, with lots blue and purple panels moving and sliding around. The floor is now very reflective, with reflections of the panels on it. It also has loud cheering sounds at the start and a blue spotlight on the coach, who appears with a horizontal line effect.

Just Dance Now
The background is a bit different than JD3. The background is now mostly dark blue, with dark and light blue block floating up and down. There is also a light directly above the dancer. There are lots of white, yellow, and purple floating dots.

Gold Moves
The remade routine has 3 Gold Moves:

Gold Moves 1 and 2: Put your hands on your head, during "You're always on my mind". Gold Move 3: Punch the air with your right hand with your left hand on your right hand. It's the last move of the routine.
