Some new information regarding Samba de Amigo’s game modes have been revealed. As we already know, each player will use two Wii Remotes to shake up, down, left, and/or right. Three difficulty modes will be available, with hard requiring you to shake frantically in order to keep up with the routines.

“Hustle Mode” will involve less shaking and more arcing motions and poses as if you’re dancing, while “Love Love Mode” (ooh-la-la) will serve as a two-player co-op mode where you’re scored based on how synchronized you and your partner are.

The last bit of new info tells us that the game’s online functionality includes the use of leaderboards to compare your scores with others. That’s good to know and all, but we still have the mysterious Pay & Play aspect to figure out…
