Just Dance Wii (also known as ジャストダンスWii) is the first game of the Japanese edition of the Just Dance video game series for the Wii. Released in Japan on October 13, 2011, it is the first official entry for the Just Dance series in the Japanese market.
This edition was published and edited by Nintendo, but developed by Ubisoft Paris as a third-party developer, with the song list featuring popular J-Pop songs for the Japanese audience, as well as songs from Just Dance 2, including one DLC, and two songs from the first Just Dance. The game is developed in the style of Just Dance 2. Features such as "Just Sweat", "Medley", "Non-Stop Shuffle" are present, except the online shop.
This is the second Just Dance game with a track that has to be unlocked, which is Just Mario in this case. The first is Just Dance 3.
Even though the original release date for this game on a global basis was six days later than the release of Just Dance 3, the unlockable Just Mario song was initially exclusive to this game before being included as Wii-exclusive downloadable content on the later game in December 2011.
The Beta silhouette of When I Grow Up appears in the Multiplayer menu, despite not being in the game.
If you get more than 10000 points, the score will be too big to remain into the "cloud" (the icon where avatar's name and score appear) and it will exceed the boundaries.
This is because of the game's font.
This is the first game in the Just Dance series without a song by Katy Perry on the main tracklist (the Just Dance Kids and other spin-off games not withstanding); it is followed by Just Dance 2017.
The Medley and Duet Medley menu icons are recycled from Just Dance 2, although many coaches from them do not appear in the game. Some of them are Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) and A-Punk.
The Wii Mote vibrates when a Gold Move is done correctly, unlike in Just Dance 2.
This is the first Just Dance game where the lyrics are highlighted. They are pink when a woman sings and blue when a man sings.
This also happens in the PS3 version of Just Dance 3.
This is the first Just Dance game not to have a worldwide release.
In the credits, Céline Rotsen’s surname is misspelled as "Rotcel".
There is text that appears during the song that reads "Clap hands to play". However, one cannot see it normally.
