Have Parents Ever Given You Trouble About DDR?

!!!!!!!PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

*calm, soothing thoughts*

All I was saying was that that is the excuse my parents use to try to get me to stop, even when I KNOW that its not real dancing. I never said it was real dancing or support the thought that it is real dancing because it is an arcade game that INCORPORATES dancing!

JEEZ, I'm not retarded you know. And by the way, I'm actually a quite good dancer, DDR or otherwise.

**Although noone knows how to salsa except for my friend Elizabeth.....LEARN PEOPLE!

My mom supports it because it's good excercise. She also said that if she was younger and didn't have a bad back, that she would try it out.

My mom loves it when I play, because it's something other than the computer.

On the flip side, she likes me doing this so much, she tells all our relatives about it and now my grandfather is coming over to my house on Wednesday to watch because she can't shut up about it.

Took the supportiveness a little too far mom...

naw...my parents never gave me any crap about me playing DDR...I guess they really never knew that I was playing more and more since on the weekends I would play lots, but they wouldn't know cuz they were out paryying themselves....kinda gross huh, considering that my mom was in her early 50's and my dad was in his late 40's when I started playing...

she wasen't to happy to find out about my interview at hooters though.

My parents didn't let me put it in my room (just bought a Ignition too), so I had to return it. So I pretty much fucked DDR and Bemani altogether.

My parents think it's cool to watch and is good exercise but they would never, ever pay for it.

I would say if you would be getting either of those things, its kind of hard to reccomend a version I don't know what US version is the best I'd say Max2 or Extreme, never played ultramix I heard it's good,unless you plan on importing a Japanese version like Extreme. As for pads I use an Red Octane ignition 2.0 it works very well for me but make sure that there is nothing wrong with it, because after playing with it for about a week the down arrow was doing weird things but I got it replaced for no cost. If you want the best pad and if you have the money Colbalt Flux makes metal pads which retail at I belive $200+.
