Why can't they call DDR DDR in the UK?

Why did they name it Dancing Stage? Noob question, but it always bugged me. Something to do with legality?

The same reason they changed the skin for the US console release of DDR Extreme. They felt like it.

I think it's because they ''remade'' the game in britain (songs, etc...) so it's called different

its like someone saying Coke, pop, soda, or carbonated drink. Its the same, but different cultures call it different things (Ex. pokemon and pocket monsters)

I always understood it as Dancing Stage being the DDR series that featured licenced songs OUTSIDE of Toshiba-EMI in Japan and U.K.

Although the USA doesnt licence from Toshiba EMI, its still refered to as DDR here. In Japan, there were a few Dancing Stage Games that were licenced from other sources (Like Avex for D.S. Disney Rave). In the U.K. They always licenced from universal (unless that changed). I guess the name just stuck.
