Electronic Arts' Boogie (despite all the promise) turned out to be a bit of a flop on Nintendo Wii, complete with moments of awkward control and awful voice recognition. Still, that hasn't stopped its makers announcing today that Boogie will soon be tap dancing its way onto the Nintendo DS.
The title is said to support DS Download Play and Multi-Card play for dance-offs between friends. Most peculiar, however, is that Boogie on the DS will be boxed with special glasses that supposedly offer the player to experience the game's charms in full 3D.

"We remember the first shots of EA's Boogie and it piqued our interest immediately. Not only did Boogie look unique and graphically astounding, but it also promised sweet Karaoke/dance based gaming. It was a shame then that the motion dancing promised by EA fell flat on its face. Karaoke worked well in Boogie yet the poorly implemented dancing model was clearly the section which EA needed to work on. Thankfully when you start playing Boogie Superstar it's clear that EA spent their development time revamping the entire dancing template."

Following the announcement by Electronic Arts of an October release date for Boogie Superstar, WiiBBG has confirmed that despite previous rumors, the game will not support the Wii Balance Board.
According to an EA representative "Boogie SuperStar will not include game play on the Wii balance board. The game will utilize a microphone peripheral for singing and the Wii Remote's motion-sensing technology for dancing, to provide players with a realistic and enjoyable performing experience."
