How many people have gotten skilled purely with arcade play?

Oh, yeah, it was pretty expensive... DDR was 200 yen a play... yeesh, I spent so much money that semester. I wish I had found the used manga shop that I got "What's Michael" from before I ran out of frivolous spending money.

I play only at the arcade and I can AA all but a few heavy songs.

I got all my DDR experience through the arcade alone. I've never owned the game at home coz I've never owned a playstation so..... Just through experience and watching others play I've learnt to freestyle, play double and get to level 7-8. So it is possible. I dread to think how much money I have actually spent in the arcade though

I've been playing for a while.

The only game system I own is a Super Nintendo

I can pass almost every song without the bar

All arcade baby!

I play mostly in the arcade. I have some home versions, but my pads are kinda broken so I don't even play 3h a month on those

I really wonder if there's a good player without Stepmania

Everyone here has it except me.

Aside from playing Stepmania (from which I figured the conecpt of DDR, and got some pretty basic reading skills), and reading a lot about "DDR Culture's Do's and Don'ts", this player is pure arcade-made!

I had been playing Step Mania (dont own PS2 or XBOX) for about 2 weeks and getting decent on Standard when I first went to the arcade and did horrible.

But then I got used to it.

And I usually go to the arcade once a week and still play StepMania usually every day. Starting now to move into heavy. My favorite song's got to be Kind Lady Interlude.
