There is more animation in the Xbox 360 background.
Just Dance 3 (PS3)
In the PS3 version of Just Dance 3, the clock is reddish-brown in the verses and aqua in the chorus, and it does not reflect anything.

Trivia
General
- What You Waiting For? is the first song by Gwen Stefani in the Just Dance series.
- "H*e" and "damn" are censored.
- There are four versions of the song: the explicit version, the clean version, the extended explicit version and the extended clean version. The game uses the second which removes the "h*e" such that "Take a chance you stupid h*e" becomes "Take a chance you stupid".
- The line "Back into Japan" is misinterpreted as "Back and do Japan".
Classic
- The Beta routine had a different choreography, which was removed for unknown reasons. Part of it can be viewed in the preview here.
- The pictograms in the Beta routine from the preview were also not in sync, and the first one is incorrect.
- In early versions of the coach’s design, the top two arrow-stripes on her dress were green instead of purple.
- The coach still sports this look on the PAL boxart of Just Dance 3.
- The coach’s legs occasionally turn purple due to a glitch.
- There is a mistake in the menu icon in Just Dance 3: both the dancer’s bracelet and glove are shown on the right hand, in spite of the bracelet actually being on the left one.
- In Just Dance 3, if What You Waiting For? is the second, third or fourth routine in any given Solo Medley, the Gold Move sound effect will not play.[citation needed]
- On the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, the coach’s hair occasionally glitches, as it turns purple when she bends.
- On the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3, the first pictograms of the routine slide much slower than the others.
- Gold Move 2 sometimes appears to have a shorter delay between the in-shine and the aftershine on Xbox 360: if the move is performed correctly, then the aftershine will appear immediately after the pictogram fades and after the in-shine finishes, but not as fast as the Wii and PS3.
- There is a pictogram on the Xbox 360 version of Just Dance 3 that does not appear on other consoles, nor in the remake. This pictogram has a thicker and rougher outline than any of the other pictograms.
- The coach makes a cameo in the background of Just Dance.
- To unlock What You Waiting For?’s avatar in Just Dance 2014, save data from at least one of its predecessors must be present. Because of this, the avatar is not obtainable on the Xbox One or PlayStation 4.
- The coach was featured in the "Guinness World Records: Gamer’s Edition 2014" along with a scene from Kiss You under Dance.
- The coach has a blue outline in the coach selection image for Maps (Mashup) and in the one for the remake; in the square for the latter, however, the outline color is still pink, like in the original one.
- Despite the fact that the menu icon for What You Waiting For? appears in the teaser for Just Dance Unlimited, the routine is currently not available for the service.
- Additionally, the square in the teaser is actually the one from Just Dance 3.
- In four pictograms in the remake, the back of the arrow blends with the torso.
- Additonally, the part of the body that blends with the arrow is in a lighter shade.
Mashup
- What You Waiting For? (Sweat Mashup) is the first unlockable Sweat Mashup in Just Dance 3.
- What You Waiting For? (Sweat Mashup), along with Take On Me (Mashup) and Jump (For My Love) (Sweat Mashup), holds the record for the fewest unique dancers, with 5.
- Party Rock Anthem’s pictograms are orange instead of light blue, Maniac’s pictograms are reddish instead of purple, and Skin-To-Skin’s pictograms are in a different shade of green.
- Additionally, the pictogram after the Gold Move appears seven beats late on Xbox 360 versions of the game.
