Im sure there will still be DDR for people to play, of course. But is there n e way we can set up another DDR section thats for the hand held controller? I know that some people just like playing with the controller and not the foot pad. I know that after I play DDR using the foot pad I rest my feet but still play using the controller.

?

That would be really cool if they also had a controller option. It would be really different. I think I got alot better at DDR after playing on the controller, it's crazy

(pic)

I really wish. Especially for ITG2. Especially even moreso for a dedicab.

Unfortunately, I've heard what's stopping the con from having a machine (any arcade game, period) is someone who would supply it - and sadly, there's only one ITG machine in Portland, and it's not a dedicab - plus, it's at Tilt, and I don't think they'd be interested in leasing it (or would they... haha). The only dedicab in the state is in Seaside, lol.

Yeah, I'd really love some arcade Bemani there, though. I enjoyed the arcade so much at Sakuracon. *Bemani fan*

Unfortunately I doubt we'll have a machine like that at the convention. However, the pads that have been used in the past are pretty good. They're hard, sturdy, and don't slide around too much. They're not like the fold-up pads.

Krn Doxy · « **Reply #31 on:** April 11, 2006, 08:48:16 am »

I'm actually really bad when it comes to metal pads. If I wear shoes, my legs get tired since I'm not used to the weight; if I go in socks, I slide around too much; and if I go barefoot, I get cut up by the screws. Is there a chance that there'll be foam pads? They didn't have them at Sakuracon so I'm not getting my hopes up, but I just thought I'd ask.

Negima · « **Reply #32 on:** April 11, 2006, 06:52:56 pm »

@Krn Doxy
Actually the pads aren't like the machine pads. There are no screws sticking out. The surface is pretty smooth which can be an advantage or disadvantage depending on who you are.

Oh yeah, I think I remember people playing barefoot without sliding around to give you an idea of the surface.

After going to wunderland and having to wait around for a guy to play 5 games before he let people go... *grumbles* I'm going to post this here.

Can we have some sort of rule on DDR where if people are waiting in line behind you, you can only play one game (or you know 3 songs) and then if you wanna play again you have to go to the back at the end of the line? Or/And no endless mode..... or setting it up for yourself to play 5 songs before your game is up. Same thing like if we have that Karoke game. I wainted once in line to play for 20 minutes because people wouldnt let others go on it... :evil:

First of all, cool signiture pic. ^_^

Second, in the past we've haven't had a machine at the con. What we have had are home pads but they're strong, solid pads. They're not the kind you can fold up basically. They tend to slid a little bit but very little when compared to the cheap plastic pads. They're not as good as the machine pads but they hold up okay.

Dustin H · « **Reply #37 on:** May 25, 2006, 07:11:38 pm »

well i should be right at home on a home pad. they're probably similar to mine. i have a nicer home pad that's slide resistant, but still slides a bit. looking forward to it!!! although dressing up like squall and playing ddr is a bad combo!

Negima · « **Reply #42 on:** May 31, 2006, 09:01:56 am »

Recently I've been on a hiatus with DDR. No injury or anything like that. It's just the people who are suppose to take care of the machine hasn't taken care of it very well including the In The Groove.
The machine would freeze up, the select button would be stuck, an arrow pad wouldn't work, one of the sides didn't work (this problem is going on for 4 months now), the machine would eat quarters, and one or two other things. At least one of these happened for a month and I was tired of asking for my money back.
Now, after a lot of people have tried out the machine and it seems to be working, I'm trying to ease my way back into it.

Dustin H · « **Reply #43 on:** May 31, 2006, 09:42:51 am »

yeah. it seems like every time i go to the arcade to play there is always one machine that's not working right. gets pretty frustrating

DancingTofu · « **Reply #44 on:** September 06, 2006, 11:30:02 pm »

1. Your poll is lacking, ITG wins for having "Mellow" on it. :D

2. You could just bring a controller and a copy of DDR and use one of the other PS2's there.

3. They need 2 full DDR setups next year and better pads, or I'll cry. :cry:

[to the staff]
4. If possible, I'd be willing to bring my DDR setup (PS2, all the NAm games ['cept extreme 'cause it sucks], and a set of fully functional and maintained dance platforms compatible with DDR, ITG, and PIU.) to K-con 2007, as long as I'd have somewhere to set it up.

5. Get a DDR cabinet (other than DDRUSA, 'cause that mix is BS) with GOOD PADS there next year and I'll <3 you fo' EVAAAR!

CaoCao433 · « **Reply #45 on:** September 07, 2006, 04:44:56 pm »

@Tofu
1. *cough* ITG = only good for harder steps, not good fun.
2. space IS needed for more DDR
3. i agree about the pads. cobalt flux IS one way to go, however, ... they just suck IMO. how 'bout some Ignition Pads anyone? i mean, i can do WWWWAAAAAYYYY better on regular pad (yes, default konami pad). those Flux pads slid around like...... bad.
4. what kinda pads? if they're not cobalt flux, please let him bring 'em, staff.
5. it doesn't really matter about the mix because you can always change it. it might be hard to, but hey, why spend about $3k on an 8th mix when the older ones are cheaper?

*ahem* while i'm still here... anyone mind telling me why Style was cancelled?

DancingTofu · « **Reply #46 on:** September 08, 2006, 09:41:57 pm »

1. ITG has awesome songs and great steps, all it lacks is an edit mode.
2. Space wouldn't be an issue; there was enough room in the game room to put 3 DDR machines comfortably if the Halo 2 people didn't have 10 spectators for every person actually playing. :lol:
3. Cobalt Flux don't suck, those ones did.
They're sensitivity was WAY too low, you couldn't tell where you were on them, and the sharp edges cut peoples' hands.
Soft pads = breaking the speed limit they slide so much.
Soft pads + 10's/11's = no.
4. Nah, they're generic metal pads, and they work perfectly because I actually maintain them. (1 pad miss = time to take the pad apart and fix it)
I'm very anal about keeping my pads in top condition.
5. Hell, they could just, you know, rent a machine. xP
Although I'm building my own cab-style home system as soon as I finish pimpin' out my pads.

Style was canceled because they didn't know how to judge it. :roll:

btw, I've done some calculations. . .
We can expect roughly 2800 people there next year, 1550 pre-registerers.
That's only mathematical, though.
Anyway, that would leave them with roughly $9500 in registry revenues.
*nudge nudge* better DDR plz? ^^

Problem: Finding a place that'll rent out their DDR machine and getting it to the hotel. To add on to that there's the cost for renting the machine.

Somehow I don't think staff is going to spend a lot on DDR machines when they think they can use it on something a lot more people will enjoy.

I like DDR and wish they would get a machine but I think it'll be years before they'll consider it.

Yeah, Sakuracon's going to have one, and a ParaPara machine, and a beatmania machine. . .
But Sakuracon's about twice as big and has been going on for more than twice as long, so maybe we'll see one at K-con in a few years.

I checked out their site www.coin-opgames.com - they do do rentals, but they have no bemani games listed on their site. I heard they had a dancemaniax at one point though, and noticed a DDR machine near the doorway when I used to commute past there by bus every day. Both those times were well over a year or two ago, though, heh. If someone wants, they can call and ask if they have any bemani/DDR...

Maybe we could leave a note to the K-con board o' important peeps to look into it then?

I think it would probably pay for itself; not many serious DDR players would miss out on an opportunity to play on a machine that hasn't been beaten beyond repair.

CaoCao433 · « **Reply #53 on:** September 11, 2006, 09:15:58 pm »

*ahem* ebay is always another option. (although the price is high, it would be k-con's for keeps... at about $3000+) uhh... anybody else think that they could charge like 25 cents for double play per game with 3 songs if we get a machine?? after all, it IS a coin-op cabinet. free would be nice, but k-con could get some serious cash doing this.

Is it on a hard floor? (tile or carpet)
Because an ignition won't slip on a hard floor, but neither will a Cobalt Flux.
Seriously, have you ever gone to an arcade and noticed that the dance platform isn't quite straight?
That's 'cause ANYTHING slides when you play 9's and up on carpet no-bar.

they have good mats for ddr at the con but they were heavy to move after they sliped too far from the tv and i think there should be a "sock or shoes" rule, o protect us from ourselfs, i had some sandles i made, and i was afraid of the breaking so i took them off before ddr, but my foot slid a bit after a jump and gouged a pretty good chunk of the pad of my food, it hurt a lot

yes, he's done it on both carpet AND tile with the same results... and no, the pads at my Wunderland are NOT crooked when i play. even when there are teh mad skillzorz people who AA Max songs. it's always straight and on carpet.

uh, a 'socks or shoes' rule is usually common sense to ANY metal pad. you know, screws sticking out and what not. mhm, that was another pad problem, slippage. i saw a bit of people slip on that. (including myself... > >) i was defernately not used to those pads and thus, i sucked like a baby.

Okay, I know what one you're talking about, but I don't know where it is.
I think it was there when they closed the game room on Sunday, you might want to ask some of the gameroom staff about it. (thanks for letting us use it by the way; otherwise I wouldn't have gotten a chance to attempt PSMO right before they closed up on Sunday.

Protip: never play heavy/oni in socks/barefoot on an unmodded Cobalt Flux.
Those screws are lethal, man. xP
Most people get flat-head screws for theirs.
But yeah, metal pads = shoes.
You'll get better sound, better scores, and your feet will thank you.

Was he the one with the dreads and glasses?

Oh yeah, btw, I think I'm going to get a couple MMB BlueSharks in a couple months and mod them with custom panels and bars, so we might actually have some arcade-quality pads there next year, if I can get someone to help me bring 'em in. (they weigh about 100 lbs each)

heh, you posted on DDRFreak's forum. *ahem* sure, that's the reason i brought my card. so everyone could play DDR to the fullest. (if no one had brought their card though...) i'm starting to think it just might be somewhere in my house now...

yeah, i agree. metal pad + barefeet =

uh, just so everyone knows, this ISN'T an actual picture of what WILL happen, but it IS a picture of what COULD happen.

yeah, Gio's the one with the dreads.

i hope you ARE able to get that good of a pad done by next year... or I WILL MOSTLY LIKELY CRY.

btw, gio and i are working on Sexy Planet (Megamix) tricks. ^^ we might have a routine for style next year if all goes well.

I post on DDRFreak a lot, actually.
160 posts.

Yipes!
Did you meet mark?
He was the first guy I went up against in the tourney.
Anyway, he cut his finger while moving the pad back at one point.

Haha, I managed to blister my toe playing DDR today.
9 hours.
6 at home, 3 at the arcade.

Ah, okay.
Say hi to him for me.
And feel free to slip in that I B'ed Max 300 on heavy twice today, just to make him feel bad. xD

I've been working on Ordinary World's spins.
When I finish getting that down, I'll see if I can get R&P with spins.

thingy is if you slip and you not wearing socks = cut foot

CaoCao433 · « **Reply #67 on:** September 19, 2006, 12:31:10 am »

yes yes, we kinda know that you can cut your foot, thus the picture i put up.

yea, i'm sure you do considering that i noticed most your post on the gaming forum have to do with DDR.. >.> <.< ^.^ V.V yea, Mark shared my room 'cuz he's Gio's friend. heh, i saw you serve him pwnage. i didn't see his cut though. was it bad, or like a pepeh cut?

blister your toe? heck, i'm sorry, but i had mine bleed because i played so hard for about 7 hrs. at the arcades. the nail was scratching my toe. yet, *sniff*, i managed the courage to keep playing! ... > >

anyways. yea, i'll tell him you can own him.
R&P? try Saints Go Marching (Remix) - Hvy, and Daikenkai on Oni.[/size]

His cut was pretty minor, bled more than a paper cut, but none got on the pad.

Keep in mind that my toe has callouses an inch thick though. (minor exaggeration)
I play DDR 1-4 hours a day, and I do martial arts, so my toes, heels, and balls of my feet are all pretty tough.

Apparently I A'ed it the second time, I must not have noticed because I was madly scrambling for my camera. xD

I don't have Ex2 yet, and I won't be able to until I get money. xP

thank gawd! i woulda screamed like a little school girl if any got on the pad! i mean..... > > ouch, paper cuts suck...

i walk 1-2 hrs a day, and i jump around on concrete, so my feet are broken. ...> > not really, but i DO walk 1-2hrs a day. hm....ah! haha! but i do homework, which hurts my head! >=D ... =\ too bad 'bout your feet.
are you gonna get SN? if you can't.... when i get it on wednesday, i'll tell you if EX2 is better or if SN is better.
(btw, i meant 'Saints Go Marching' and 'Daikenkai' at your local DDREX cabinet host place. ^^)

Likewise!

Ah, I just walk way too much.
I'm the type of guy who goes on 15-mile walks to relax.
That, or I play something easy on DDR. (6-8 footer)
Although now that my bike's working, I'll be doing a lot less walking, but my leg muscles are gonna be huge. (er)

CaoCao433 · « **Reply #71 on:** September 27, 2006, 04:30:45 pm »

w007, DDRSN is in my game collection now! ^^ it's pretty good. layout is cool. SONGS!@!!@!@! OMG, i think they could've gone without some licensed songs.... ESPECIALLY KELLY CLARSON'S 'SINCE JOO BEEN GAWN' T_T poor DDR... i think i see 12 licensed/english songs from modern pop/rock, to old songs... the only real decent songs (not english licensed songs) are 'TRUE LOVE' by jun, 'CURUS' by D-Crew, 'No. 13' by Taka respect for J.S.B, 'Xepher' by Tatsh, and (fine, fine, ONE licensed song) Captain Jack's 'CENTERFOLD(130BPM move it remix). now, the interesting part about DDRSN is the new stuff. the dancer's movements, Stellar Master Mode, the stages, Advanced mode, and SN itself. while the beeps are cool and stuff, it's kinda annoying too. now, the dancers and stages are pretty damn cool. i'm an Alice fan, (gosh) and i'm waiting to unlock her, but for now i've seen Emi, and her movement/dancing is pretty smooth and, you know, smooth. kinda realistic, 'cept for the facial expression. i'm kinda disappointed by Konami unable to realize people have emotions... *ahem* as for Stellar Master mode, "woah, that's just weird =\", were my EXACT words. unlike Dance Master mode from Ex2, you go around to planets, check a list of things you must do (YES, THEY DON'T JUST HAND YOU A MISSION ANYMORE T_T), complete the list, and BOOM, you completed a thing. so, when someone's completed a planet, tell me. i haven't. = | i'll explain more things later as right now i'm busy. ^^ so ends part 1.

CaoCao433 · « **Reply #72 on:** September 28, 2006, 04:25:28 pm »

*gosh* i think i see 13 licensed. *ahem*
now, i was on stellar master mode, no? okay. i managed to 100% complete 1 planet. all you get when you clear (not complete) a planet are songs that were in that planet and the planet's Pix (char.). now, to clear a planet, you need to clear a 'Showdown' when you finish a couple of Trials. there's 'Showdown', 'EX Showdown', and 'Diamond EX Showdown'. as you might've guessed, each Showdown is harder than the last. Diamond EX is only unlocked by clearing ALL Trials, EX is unlocked by clearing half the Trials, and Showdown is unlocked by clearing 1 or 2 Trials. now, Showdowns consist of a couple of 'Drills' (so far 4-5), that improve your skillz as a dance masta' (yo). for DDR Experts out there, the first planets are going to be EXTREMELY EASY. and when i say extremely easy, i mean very, very, VERY, easy. it'll also feel like wasting 50 credits playing nothing but Beginner mode. it is utter torture... Diamond EX Showdown is probably the only challenge you'll have on a planet for a while.
now then. off there, and back to game. i've had a chance now to see other dancers, and they all have seperate dancing styles now. it's pretty kool. although, it seems the dancing for Jenny(or jenna. whatever) is a bit 'weird'... =\ she dances like a pole dancer...
some of the dancing is now modern. you know, shake, move, shake more, breakdance.
*ahem* did i explain Advance mode? prolly not. oh well. advance mode has Survival, Endless, Combo, and *le sigh* Battle. battle, is by far THE WEIRDESTEST mode i've seen in a while. you play the same mode, work on your combo, and when your Attack lvl is high enough, you send it to your opponent which then screws with their modifications. =) it not only messes with speed, visiblilty, or color, but it also changes the order of the arrows, move some arrows closer to the bottom of the screen and more. it is awesomely cool. very fun for two people, or just yourself.

for now, that's all i've to say about teh new, Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova.
Overall: 8/10

(x)good, but it's kinda the same as EX2, but with new songs. i'd like it if they just kept the Dance Master mode from EX2.
(x)licensed songs... *hurls* jeez Konami, you hurted me... you hurted me bad.

(+)everything else is awesome.

I'm going to have it in a few days but I have to:
Take a $200 check to the bank.
Take $50 in cash, deposit the other $150.
call the Pioneer Place EB games to see if they have any copies in stock.
If they don't, call Fry's and see if they have any.
Supposing one of them has a copy, go there on Saturday and buy a copy.
Get home Sunday and play 'til Midnight, then play some more.

In the meantime, I'll be waiting 2 days for my check to be processed, then go to Paypal and get $30.00 transferred from my checking account, wait 5 days, then check newegg, ebay, and amazon.com for EMS 2-port usb adaptors. xP
If I can't find any okay ones there, I'll look for an official website. xP

*ahem* tofu, if you've got the money, get DDREx2 while you're at it. SN... i thought it would've had more since i only unlocked a couple songs, but a couple songs are about over half the songs. = | half are licensed, 1/4 are original, and the other 1/4 of the songs are recycled. the only song that'll make the game worthwhile (now) is probably Fascination ~true love mix~ (or something along that)....
*le even more sigh* i also think that some of the old dancers aren't available (like half of them T_T including Alice...) as PiXs are the only characters that've been available to me so far. well, at least Emi is awesome ^^.

to anyone who gets SN, go to option (in game mode) and pick Dancer: Emi, Stage:5 or 6
it's cool.

DancingTofu · « **Reply #75 on:** October 04, 2006, 05:39:35 pm »

I don't really care for dancers, I'm all the dancers they need. xD

Yeah, I actually decided I'm going to try to get $100 cash, then pick up SN, Ex2, and a USB adaptor for my StepMania.

Also, I posted some ideas for DDR next year in the Contests forum, check it out.
