- There's a loose campaign (that's not really engaging enough to follow through with), free play, and a bare-bones weight loss mode. "Dance Machine" attempts to try something new, randomizing routines under the guise of helping aliens refuel their ship, but I found myself just gravitating back toward freeplay after a few rounds.
Chris Carter · Mar 09, 2017 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - For one of the earliest Nintendo Switch experiences I’ve had with the console, Just Dance 2017 was a disappointing departure. Though its slick and easy to use interface combined with the Switch-centric Tabletop Mode are boons for those looking to dance, there’s little substance here, certainly not enough to recommend shelling out cash for Just Dance Unlimited or even playing this game instead of just turning on the radio and dancing to your own routines.
Brittany Vincent · Mar 06, 2017 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Just Dance 2017 is a very predictable update to a long-running series of dancing games that shines in visual design and unique choreography but is very loose with its tracking of your body movements. It’s not going to teach you to be a professional dancer, and it honestly doesn’t really teach you how to be good at Just Dance itself. That said, it’s still a whole lot of fun to play, and the songs that aren’t locked behind a paywall are varied and, largely, recognisable
Alanah Pearce · Mar 03, 2017 Reviewed onRead full review - If you've played a Just Dance game before, any Just Dance game, you'll know whether or not you like Just Dance 2017. It doesn't add much to the series but is another bombastic, deeply enjoyable game to play as you accidentally break your living room furniture.
Rosh Kelly · Nov 11, 2016 Reviewed on PC, PS4, XB1, PS3, X360, Wii URead full review - This is our third year in a row criticizing Just Dance, but we’re not trying to beat up the series. We were champions of the pure fun the game offered early in its inception, but it’s become irrelevant now thanks to Just Dance Unlimited. Ubisoft needs to stop releasing this game physically and focus entirely on their streaming platform.
Steve Hannley · Nov 01, 2016 Reviewed on XB1, SwitchRead full review - Just Dance 2017 is a good way to introduce new players to the game, or to get friends in the game with you – but as for accuracy, it’s not the best. That said, you’ll probably be having so much fun dancing to the Sumo version of “Hips Don’t Lie” that you won’t even notice the hiccups.
Kyle Wakeling · Apr 05, 2017 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Just Dance 2017 is, simply put, fun. It's fun with others. It's challenging both mentally (to learn the choreography) and physically. And it has a lot of music to offer. Just Dance 2017 gets that way not by being a technical program obsessing about judging the details of your physical movements, but by doing everything in its power to make you forget everything but the music, the choreography, how they intertwine, and how you're ever going to be able to catch your breath in time to keep up with it.
Carmine Red · Mar 29, 2017 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - If you’ve played Just Dance before you’ll know what to expect from the 2017 installment; a bunch of new songs to gyrate your body to and make yourself look like a fool at parties, now you can take it with you and create dance parties wherever you like – what could be better? The gate-keeping of features behind the Unlimited service sticks in the craw a bit, but what Ubisoft needs to do now is stop making Just Dance games and focus more on making Unlimited a value proposition for people to get behind. But otherwise this is an enjoyable, tiring time and the way my back feels right now can attest to that.
Nick Gillham · Mar 23, 2017 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - Just Dance 2017 on Nintendo Switch is as close to perfection in the genre as possible, even if this version has lost some of the features included in the already released Wii U edition.
Adam Riley · Mar 08, 2017 Reviewed on SwitchRead full review - It might be similar in many ways to last year's effort, but we still enjoyed the neon colours and silly costumes, as well as a selection of tracks that range from classic disco, R'n'B and modern floor fillers to cheesy euro pop and wacky J-Pop. Just Dance 2017 has managed to keep it fresh, accessible, affordable, and most importantly fun.
