'''Dancing games''' are games where the player must step on the arrows of a dance mat according to in-game instructions. There are only two ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' dancing games: ''[[Mario Undōkai]]'' and ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]'', based on the ''{{wp|Dance Dance Revolution}}'' series.
'''Rhythm games''' are games where the player must time button presses on a game controller or {{wp|dance pad}}, in order to match the beat of music played during the game and the timing of symbols that appear on screen. There are five ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' rhythm games: ''[[Mario Undōkai]]'' and ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]'', based on the ''{{wp|Dance Dance Revolution}}'' series, and the [[Donkey Konga (series)|''Donkey Konga'' series]]: ''[[Donkey Konga]]'', ''[[Donkey Konga 2]]'', and ''[[Donkey Konga 3 JP]]'', which are based on the ''{{wp|Taiko no Tatsujin}}'' series by the same developers, and utilize the [[Nintendo GameCube#DK Bongos|DK Bongos]] as a controller. All of these games feature minigames in addition to the rhythm-based gameplay, and with the exception of ''Mario Undōkai'', they can be played with a standard [[Nintendo GameCube]] controller.
 
In addition to these games, characters from the ''WarioWare'' series make appearances in the game ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''.
