Hey guys, i just got(or at least my local arcade owner) a post card in the mail from a company called motion fitness. on the front it had some cobalt fluxes in the bg and it said
"the cure for childhood obesity & Inactivity
(then it had the Stillouette fron the pad behind red and blue text saying)
Fitness arcade
DDR Gamebike Makato Circut"
On the back it said
Fittness arcade is a positivly addictive and amazingly fun activity
DDR
Kids dance away the pounds while having the times of their lives.
Gamebike
Pedal away the pounds while playing 50 diffrent video games
Makato
React to lights and sounds
Circut's
Simply the bet circut equipment on the planet
Motion fitness
501 West Colfax St.
Palatine, IL 60067

motionfitness.com"
http://www.motionfitness.com/Fitnessarcade.htm
now i visited the site, and apperantly it sells ddr equipment to gyms and schools. colbalt flux style pads and these little "ghost" pads that you put behind the machine, and people ghost on them.(pic at bottom.) that's all fine and good, but the prices are outragious. they're charging $2590.00 for 2 cobalt flux pads, not including shipping. that's $1295.00 a pad! WTF!!!

Those are actually special CFs only available to gyms and the like. While they certainly don't cost nearly that much to make, some fitness centers are apparently willing to pay for them.

This looks shopped. I can tell from the pixels and having seen many shops in my time.

I believe the term is "shadow".
Also, who needs a pad under them while shadowing? And if you're going to pay $2500+ for pads, couldn't you at least get a projector instead of that little TV?
