Blitzball...

... is a heck of a lot more challenging using a dance pad.

You need to move fast, or have 3 feet to be able to mash the square button while using 2 arrow keys.

"PASS you twit! PASS! 3 Psyches are about to gang up on you!"


(I use blitzball as a 10-minute break to wake myself up, and suddenly realized that might double as a way to stretch/get the heart rate up a tiny bit)

I have never been able to figure that game out - so I commend you for doing it by dancing!

1. Oh, man, that's such a good idea. Dance pad!

2. Your icon made me laugh. :DDD

Chocobo racing is utter hell on a dance pad -- and incredibly more vivid. Who needs a WII? :D

A pity one can't play the whole game with it -- or at least, I haven't found a pad with the trigger keys! FFVIII you can manage if you ignore Trigger, but in FFX it's too limiting -- one can't swap characters in combat. Most of the minigames don't use the triggers, however.

I like making goofy icons. I wish I could think of the punchlines more often.

Which reminds me... one of my earlier attempts...

Chocobo Racing! Argh, horrible memories noooooo! (I never managed to get Caladbolg fully sparked up because of that. It's my secret shame.)

O'course, I'm not going to touch the laughing scene because....really....what were Squeenix thinking?? Oh, I cringe through it every time.

Hahaha, Dancepads like the DDR mats? I just had my first DDR (total failure in a Korean acade) experience and thought about getting one for at home use. I had no idea you could use them for any game!
