Bust A Move: Dance & Rhythm Action/Bust A Groove is a rhythm game for the Sony PlayStation released in 1998. The game was developed by Metro and published by Japanese multimedia publisher Enix in Japan, published in North America by now-defunct 989 Studios and published in Europe by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.
One of the first rhythm games to follow in the wake of PaRappa the Rapper's unexpected popularity,[5] the game combined PaRappa the Rapper-inspired rhythm-based gameplay with elements of fighting games, including special moves designed to damage the opponent and head-to-head competitive play. The Japanese version is titled Bust A Move: Dance & Rhythm Action (バスト ア ムーブ Dance & Rhythm Action, Basuto A Mūbu Dance & Rhythm Action), but in all other regions it was released as Bust A Groove, to avoid a trademark conflict with the Japanese puzzle game Puzzle Bobble, which was released in North America and Europe as Bust-A-Move.
The sequel, Bust A Groove 2, unlike its predecessor, wasn't planned to be released in Europe, and Bust A Move: Dance Summit 2001, the third game in the series, was released only in Japan on the PlayStation 2.
