What the Hell is THIS?

[fido123]

Ok...I was at Wonderland (Canadaian Theme Park) at a school trip and me and a few other guys who play DDR a bit met up towards the end of the trip to go to the arcade and play some DDR. This is the first time I went since October and it was closed during winter. I went to the arcade that was suppost to have 'DDR Ex' but it was replaced with 'Para Para Dancing'. We ran to the other end of the park to the arcade that we were sure it would have DDR as it had 'DDR Ex' & 'DDR Max' since last I was there.

I walk in and there's SuperNova so I was slightly regretfull but definiatly happy but then I looked at it. Milton Movie Theater all over again. Rubber buttons and it was the PS2 version in a cabnet. Wondering if the macro'd it better and had more responsive buttons I put it a doller and it started working. Selected Easy songs singles. Very pissed I continue to play the game but I had to smash the arrows several times per step to pick a song and difficulty. I pick some Bullshit song and I fail cause of the stupid buttons.

This is the SECOND time this happend and its pissing me off. Any one else see one of these stupid machines? Anyone know anything about them?

Nope. Really ****ing sucks though, seems like a lot of arcades you have to press harder than the home version, though.

Re: What the Hell is THIS?

Just about every DDR machine I've played has had some pad trouble with it.

In addition to the fact that there's very few machines in my area, I play ITG or PIU.

Re: What the Hell is THIS?

Well I have a similar story. I was playing ITG2 and put it on Challenge, and while my back was turned, these two stupid kids run by and start pressing the button, thus selecting the song without time for me to change the scroll rate, so I ended up almost failing that Amore some on 1x.

UPDATE: These sets are pirated (not that I didn't know that already) by some arcade company which takes old US1-Ex cabnets then put PS2's inside them and macro them all wrong because THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT DDR!!!

It sounds kinda like DDR Megamix, except roflunplayable.

Re: What the Hell is THIS?

yeah, our ddr up at this bowling alley has the SCREEN busted, so you can only see half of it, and also the left arrow to select songs is broken, so you can't go back through the songs... it is pretty much un-playable

I live in new york, and we have a lot of machines. All of them work perfectly, of course.

EDIT: the guy above me incorrectly interpreted this thread. He's waaaay off.

OMG!

fido123 you lucky bastard. I've never been to Wonderland.

Are you sure some idiots didn't go and spill drinks on the machines? I remember I accidentally did that on the PIU machine at Fairview and within a week that machine was gone.
