dear lord! i've never gotten an AA from a song higher than "light", and this child is able to do it easily...wow. the future dancer/martial artist of the world i'm sure.  Guitar Hero doesn't count, sorry. Neither does: Beatmania Beatmania IIDX Guitar Freaks Drummania pop'n'music There ya go. would it count if it was played at the same time as DDR? guitar on your shoulders as you dance?  but really, the title of the board is "Dance Games", and unless other games don't incorporate the moving of the feet, they don't count. *sigh* those other games are fun though.  Ever heard of Anthony "Sketch" Carella? Best in the world?  |

There are lots of best people in the world. XD I don't care about any of them.
Besides, want to see truly amazing?
There's a video of an 11 year old passing Xuxa Expert, which is ridiculously hard. (Granted, it's the only fun 11 too, but still.) I'll try and find it...but I don't think I can.

They had DDR at my school today during lunch on the big screen, for 25 cents a play. So the one dude who sits with us at lunch gave me a quarter so he could laugh at me play I don't know which version it was, I think it was the new one, Supernova or whatnot. So, I played a game, they made you choose random though, I chose heavy anyway, hoping I wouldn't get some 10 footer song. It was fairly easy. But let me tell you. Slippery dance pads+tile floor+a decently hard song= Failure x.X I feel like a moron for failing in front of the whole school now. On a song I know I could nail anywhere else Edit: Oh yeah, if we're talking about awesome DDR players. My best friend's family is friends with a guy who plays uber hard songs while juggling clubs at eye level  \ Edit 2: here's a link www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKI2jE1ZKngYeah, I've met this guy in real life tons of times, he's nice |

SuperNOVA? That's the version at my school!  Except we've got the PS2 version, we're allowed to pick the song we play, and we don't have a memory card (yet). By the way, I think that playing/making songs on StepMania can help you get better ad DDR, even if you just use the keyboard. I tried a few 5-foot songs at school once, sometimes failing, sometimes just barely passing. I worked on a stepfile over the weekend (which is around a 5-foot difficulty) and the next time I played, I found that I could pass the 5-foot songs with 'B's and 'C's. I still couldn't finish a 6-foot though, so I'm planning on making a 6-foot song soon so that I can pass those. |

Gamecube-Yes, it was definitely SuperNova, because Supernova's pads are notoriously slippery. X3 And I thought it was just my arcade. Oh, by the way, is he the same guy who appeared on Master of Champions? *should be able to know, but I don't* Omni-Yes, you probably could be better, but I'd still recommend the pad. By the way, you seem to be getting good the way I never got good... XD Vyt-what do you mean? |

I have Dancing Stage Megamix and one of the songs you can unlock is Max 300(0) (I think it is 300, it may be 3000) and I can barely do the Beginner one which is 1-foot-difficulty xD Its beat is so fast it takes a few goes to get used to it xP

Max 300 Beginner is 3 feet, not 4.
Hooray. Cleared The Legend Of Max with a B.

Vyt-what do you mean? He stood up and went round and round while hitting the pads. Creepy. Hey, anyone here plays Para Para Paradise (PPP for short)? It's not your average dance rhythm game, 'coz you can use any part of your body to play! It's a fairly easy game... And the Para Para Mode has choreography! |

Hooray. Cleared The Legend Of Max with a B. The ankle breaker? fun times. Recent DDR binge: was 10 pm last friday, and i had just finished eating an all you can eat fish and chicken combo. tasty tasty. came home with a friend of mine, and we thought it would be fun to play ddr not even 30 minutes after eating. began playing 5 round sets with no breaks for about thirty minutes. felt like i was tasting fish and chicken all over again, but good times.  friend wanted to keep playing Kick The Can in heavy as well. He thought he could AA it, but either by his own faults of to a faulty pad, we played it over 5 times. |

I bought a couple dance pads and a USB adapter on eBay, so I could use a pad with StepMania. I've had the adapter for a couple days, the pads just came today. My first thought was 'WOOHOO!' My second (or third, or fourth) thought was 'Why can't I get the stupid dance pad mode to work?' I did a few googles, and from the looks of it, the specific adapter ("Twin USB Joystick") that I got doesn't have the 'dance pad mode code'... I'll see if I can get the adapter returned. But for now, I'm just using the work around, which isn't too much harder bacause I got pads that were 'adjusted for sensitivity'.  Anyway, It's definitely funner with a pad than with a keyboard/controller. *sounds of feet on a pad are heard* |

Omni-SM 4.0 recognizes nearly all pads (or so I've heard). That could be easier, too.
Vyt-Oh. And yes, I have heard of PPP. And guess what-it's on 4.0 too! XD *remembers the incredibly short-lived Dancing Wipeout Para from January 2005*
Jacob-XD My sister can pass Kick The Can Heavy, and now that's the only song she'll play. I'm considering moving my pad downstairs again to discourage her. (I need to play SM more now too).

I don't think the problem is the pad, or StepMania... It's a pad from Konami (I think) and it's sensitive enough to detect when my cat walks over it. Seriously, she walked across just now and the LEDs lit up. The problem is the Playstation-to-USB adapter. Most adapters either don't have the 'dual axis problem' or have a code (up+start+select for three seconds) that activaies 'pad mode'; I happened to get an adapter that has the dual axis problem, but no code. It looks just like a couple other adapters that work, but it isn't one of them.
Maybe I'll try out SM 4.0 anyway, seeing as they just updated it, today I think.

Actually, that update didn't mean that it supports. It's actually good, there's just a few bugs they need to work out.
DDR last night-Carried my Afterburner downstairs, played Stepmania. First song I played was the shadow (Song: kors k, Author: W1p3out). It was great. I tripped up at the end though at a complicated 1 measure sixteenth measure run. Hee. I then played some newer songs of mine to test them out. I like them. :3
Then I played more DW songs and I failed all of them. I was too tired from the shadow. XD
