where is that monster looking dude? she did not look like hmmm
Well, pretty good opportunity for some site-pimpage here, considering you're the first. All that said, that video looks pretty.... weird? It certainly made me curious, but I'd like to see more 'substance' (i.e. some of the other stuff in the PR release) than just a woman dancing without any idea of how or why she's dancing :lol

Singing is gone it seems.
Anyway, looking great. Seriously, the graphics look pretty sweet in my eyes.

I'd say the animation is fairly bad for a dancing game.

From the OP:
"Using the unique Wii controls and a peripheral microphone, showcase your best singing and dancing moves."
Hope this comes out okay, what happen to the Pikmin/Night Before Christmas stage? I want to see that one in motion. Glad to see there will be different types of characters to choose from though, thought they'd all look like Spongebob character rip-offs.

Looks good! Now I wanna see a video showing Wiimote controls and the microphone (It's an official Nintendo accessory I believe isn't it?)
Doesn't look bad at all, even if they're small... but I still don't know what the heck is going on in those pics... yeah, they're dancing... but how? Isn't it some kinda policy to show the Wiimote/Nunchuk on these things or something? Or was that only at launch? 
edit: the bigger versions look a bit blurrier, but perhaps that's due to JPG compression.

Potential is there. Now they should show the gameplay footages and controls.
Also, the new screenies are kinda bordering on the Bratz/Slutz/Whorez angle.

Yeesh, could anybody other than middle ageds looking for nostalgia enjoy this? I'm sorry, it just barely looks like a game.

I kind of liked the goofy alien dude they showed before. These new Bratz characters? Not so much. I'll pass on this for sure.

This'll be the next Wii fad, dancing games!!
I'd expect you'll be able to send your videos to your buddies?

It seems like you get different background/stage for different character template, it seems. All the Whorez will probably dance on that highschool stage motif and fat alien guy is gonna dance in Nightmare Before Christmas ripoff motif.

Oh, singing is still there, I see, I see.
Oh well.

I think I like how the game looks, but the animation that was shown in the trailer was completely chaotic. That's no dancing...
Otherwise there seems to have pretty cool ideas thrown around and we barely saw how the game controls. We will see how it turns out.

Er hang on a second, EA are giving this game a decent dev period? in it's current state I thought it would be a June release or something, wow, anticipation level rising, at this rate they might actually be able to have the time to add a decent level of polish and glamour to the game like it deserves to have.
EA are being so confusing, making hap-hazard tosh like "EA playground" but then also giving a good dev period for this, and of course putting some serious effort into MySims, good grief EA, either support the Wii properly or not at all,

There is something kind of odd about that video, the way the camera at times seem to move with the character, and crazy nonsense type of dance she's doing, and flashing aura with sparks emanating from her (like an indicator similar to SSX when you do a trick). Its almost as if its in game footage.

Not bad. It's good to see that they are different settings for both stages and characters. Not to keen on the Bratz vibe these characters give me but if I can go back to that other dude shown in the first batch of screens-no problem.
I'm interested in the singing, I hope you can combine singing and dancing, that would be pretty sweet.
Between this and Singstar my gf will probably have friends over every weekend.
Oh I hope the bad framerate is due to the video encoding Vooks?
