Just Dance 2

This page contains notes for the game Just Dance 2.

Audio Files#

The music and sound effects for the game are stored in WD2.wii.wav.bf. The archive itself is encoded in Ubisoft's BigFile format, used in several other games made during that time period; the file version here is identical to the one featured in the Wii version of Rabbids Go Home. With the exception of the audience sound effects heard after each song, the files use LyN headers and are encoded in the Nintendo DSP 4-bit ADPCM format: in addition, all audio has a sample rate of 32000 Hz and is encoded in stereo. Below is a list of each file's content, taken from the Best Buy edition.

Some tracks repeat themselves in full after a few seconds of silence. After that repetition completes, a second repetition starts, though it fades out after a few seconds. Tracks where this occurs will be marked as "Loops and fades."
