Rating Summary: This is a dance simulation game in which players follow on-screen cues to perform Broadway dance routines. Players can choose an avatar, and learn dance steps by following the movements of the dancer on screen. Some of the female costumes are somewhat revealing (low-cut dresses, showgirl costumes, lingerie-like outfits with garter belts, etc.). Song lyrics contain lines such as "Look at my a*s, look at my thighs, I’m cat nip to the guys" and "She wasn’t what you’d call a blushing flower . . . As a matter of fact she rented by the hour."

Trivia[]
- Dance on Broadway is the first animated-like game in the spin-off series.
- Dance on Broadway is the only game in the series to only support 4:3 aspect ratio.
- The Wii version uses a menu based on the first Just Dance game.
- Effort ratings are exclusively in the Wii version.
- Similar to Just Dance 2, pictograms slide in from both sides of the screen to triangles that turn on and off to the beat.
- The triangles do not flash like in the other games, but rather turn on for a beat then turn off for the next then on and off and so on.
- However, unlike Just Dance 2, lyrics are displayed in the top left corner rather than in the bottom-center between the two triangles.
- In addition, lyrics highlight word by word–this feature did not appear in the main series until Just Dance 3 for the PS3 and Just Dance 4 for the other consoles.
- All the routines were choreographed by Chase Brock from The Chase Brock Experience.
