Developed by Creator/SonicTeam, released in 1999 as an arcade game, and for the Dreamcast in 2000, ''Samba de Amigo'' was a RhythmGame that had elements that were ahead of its time: such as motion controls, a diverse soundtrack of mostly pop music (primarily from Latin pop artists like Music/RickyMartin and Music/JenniferLopez, along with many others ... like Music/ReelBigFish and Music/{{Chumbawamba}} for some reason), an early form of console DLC (going online merely "unlocked" them, as they were apparently on-disc already. They were mainly remixes from other Sega franchises), and a vibrant cast of characters headed by a crazy looking monkey in a sombrero.

* TheCameo: The game was popular enough for Amigo to make cameos in other Sega games (primarily the MassiveMultiplayerCrossover ''VideoGame/SegaSuperstars'' series); and in return, ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' and ''VideoGame/SpaceChannel5'' themed stages also make appearances in the Wii version.

Added DiffLines:

* AntiFrustrationFeatures: Likely to compensate for the inherently less accurate motion controls of the Nintendo Switch's Joy-Cons, the hit detection when using motion controls in ''Party Central'' is astoundingly lenient, to the point where you can hit a note by simply shaking in the general direction of the "hitbox" without too much fuss. This is in contrast to ''Samba de Amigo'' on the Wii where the motion controls had a tendency to be a bit too picky.
