Revision as of 16:36, 28 July 2018
Just Dance 4 is a dance/rhythm game developed and published by Ubisoft. It is the fourth installment in the series and the first to be released on the Wii U. The game was released on October 2, 2012 with the Wii U version being released on November 18, 2012.
Gameplay
Players are judged on their ability to mimic dance moves performed by on-screen dancers. Players can choose the song they dance to and score is kept depending on the amount of accurate timings and movements.
New features and modes in Just Dance 4 include a dance battle mode, expansions to the game's Just Sweat mode, and unlockable bonus routines for specific songs.
Players can unlock 'Dance Quests', with each song having up to six missions that can be completed. To complete these quests, players would have to follow specific criteria and movements to clear them.
Dancer Cards can be created by players which display their most frequently played songs, their highest scores, and online and offline challenges. Online leaderboards are available for the Wii U, PS3, and Xbox 360 versions of the game.
Another new feature is the new visual; The excess neon used on the clothes of the dancers previously have been removed, and clothes are shown in their natural, more realistic state. Also, the dancers’ color schemes are no longer gradient. Backgrounds are also more detailed and animated, rather than the simple backgrounds used in previous games.
Special Editions
Just Dance 4 Special Edition
There is a special edition of the game which only adds one song; Umbrella by Rihanna, as well as an Alternate Version to the song, can be unlocked in-game. However, the Special Edition is only for the PAL Wii due to Umbrella being on the default tracklist for all other consoles.
Wii U Version
The Wii U version of Just Dance 4 has its own special additions and features as well as having the most exclusive Mashups. For the first time in the series, a game mode can support up to 5 players at once. Puppet Master Mode allows four players to dance on-screen at once. The fifth player uses the Wii U Gamepad and becomes the Master of Ceremonies. The MC has the ability to switch dance routines in real time. The other four players must perform the moves decided by the MC.
The Wii U operator also has the ability to create custom choreographies on Puppet Master Modes and choose the next song. The Wii U controller allows light painting, which can be used for writing/drawing things on the screen for the other 4 players. It is also possible to display the lyrics on the gamepad.
Also, 3 exclusive songs are included, Ain't No Other Man, Domino and Want U Back in the Wii U. (Want U Back is a DLC on the other three consoles.)

Trivia
- The DLC instruction manual is seen to contain fake DLCs like Brand New Start which has the Jungle Drum dancer, Alright and Katti Kalandal. On the DLC instruction manual for the Xbox 360 version, it shows Brand New Start with Kids in America dancer.
- This probably is because the only first DLC released was Part Of Me.
- Just Dance 4 is the last game in a row to have a song by Britney Spears, as they have appeared every game in the main series except for Just Dance 2014 and Just Dance 2015.
- On the PlayStation 3 version, if there is a DLC downloaded to the system, the scores won't be seen next to the dancer(s) like in the other consoles. They have to be seen through the leaderboard.
- The effort ratings have been removed from the game, and they have been absent from every game in the main series since.
- This is the first game where the lyrics are highlighted on all consoles. The highlighting color is usually the same color as the coach's glove or the pictograms.
- Battle Mode was first introduced to the main series in this game.
- This would appear for the last time on Just Dance 2014.
- On the NTSC boxart, Umbrella and Moves Like Jagger have different color schemes but Umbrella's color scheme is from the bridge, when she turns golden.
- No Mashups in this game have gold moves (including console-exclusives). This is currently the only game where this happens.
- There are 33 total Mashups in the game. However, only the Wii U version holds all of them. The Wii and Xbox 360 versions have only 12 of them each, and the PS3 version has 24 of them.
- There were going to be 36 mashups (Istanbul (Not Constantinple, Superstition and Umbrella) were planned to be in the game but got cut.
- Just Dance 4 has the most new routines in the series. There are:
- 50 classic routines.
- 10 alternate routines.
- 16 brand new DLCs.
- On the Wii U version of the game, there is a notification that will appear at the bottom-right corner of the song list saying that there are 64 Mojo levels. However, there are only 62 gifts on the Wii U version.
- On the rest of the consoles, its maximum level is 33.
- Light painting and karaoke is not available while playing Puppet Master Modes.
- On the Wii U, Want U Back has got Dance Quests, while the DLC version does not have them.
- In the beta version as seen in gameplay footage, the pictogram bar was going to still have the flashing triangle where the pictograms fade, as seen in the previous three games, instead of a rectangle.
- Also, the Gold Move effect from Just Dance 3 is used along with the sound effect from this game in the beta version. It was also used in Just Dance Wii 2.
- On the PAL boxart, Mr. Saxobeat has different color schemes.
- The On Fire feature, which was used to give you more points if you get multiple "Perfect"s or "Good"s in a row, has been removed from the game. It has been absent from every game in the main series ever since.
- The game files contain a video of various people from the development team dancing randomly and wearing various costume accessories. This video is formatted like other coach videos in the files. This was likely made for testing purposes.
- On the title screen in the Xbox 360 version, the coach from Disturbia shows the pose that the player has to do (by raising his or her hand) to activate the menu control.
- You're the First, the Last, My Everything plays during the Credits.
- If The player continues the song after pausing, it'll go on to the countdown starting with 3. The speed depends on the song's BPM.
- The countdown was also used in Just Dance Wii 2, but with the countdown starting at 4 in both normal gameplay and Breakdown Mode.
- The logo for Ubisoft Paris, Ubisoft Pune, Ubisoft Romania, Ubisoft Reflections and Ubisoft Milan and the loading screen is different in the Wii/Wii U versions than in the Xbox 360/PS3 versions.
- Also, the results music is different in the Wii version than all other consoles.
- In the Xbox 360/PS3 versions, the logo for Ubisoft Paris, Ubisoft Pune, Ubisoft Romania, Ubisoft Reflections and Ubisoft Pune has 5 star sound effects representing 5 stars and the 5 colored star appears when loading the game after launching. On Wii/Wii U, the loading screen shows some boken particles flying from left to right on the bottom.
- The Xbox 360 version’s Menu is purely different then all other consoles.
- The Wii U version’s menu has a different Back button and loading icon.
- Just Dance 4 is the last game that runs on 60fps on Wii. Starting from Just Dance 2014, games run on 30fps on Wii while on all other consoles games run in 60fps.
- This probably happens because Just Dance 4 has a lot of graphical UI elements and the game would stutter sometimes (when a song is paused and one scrolls through the menu).
- The game was supposed to have Medley, but it was removed for unknown reasons.[2]
- The Gold Move sound is not played on Wii Remotes, instead they vibrate when a player correctly does a Gold Move.
- The lyrics is closer to the edge on the Wii.
- Starting with this game, the lyric lines are generally longer than in previous games.
- Just Dance 4 is the first game to be available for 8th-gen consoles (Wii U). The previous three games were only available for 7th-gen consoles.
- The Xbox 360 version of the game does not have a crown above the leader’s name. Instead, the leader will have gold arcs below their name and Kinect silhouette.
- An Autodance will not be recorded when playing a DLC song.
- As of January 31, 2019, downloadable tracks will no longer be obtainable for the Wii version of this game due to the discontinuation of the Wii Shop Channel and Nintendo WFC Pay & Play services. The ability to add Wii Points has been removed on March 26, 2018.
