There was a kid in college that was a literal ddr sperg. He would play during all his spare time and he petitioned the school to get the arcade game for the student center. When he wasn't playing he would mentally rehearse with his fingers on a mat that he designed. He was later kicked out because he tried to burn down the visual arts building.

i went to the arcade at p-mall in markham a couple years back and ddr was still going strong. it was like stepping into a time machine, the fashion of the players was basically a throwback to late 90s-2000 too

A dude I knew in college would always try to get busty ladies to play DDR at parties even when the party was in no way conducive to stopping dead and putting on a dance video game

same but Beatmania and while he didn't try to burn anything (that i know of) he also started me on my path to MOBA hate as he and all the other jackasses would come into the computer lab where i worked to play DOTA and be complete assholes to everyone else.

he also thought it was hilarious to meow at people. it's been over a decade and i still remember how much i hate that guy

my eye twitched when I read this, like a drat cartoon. A physiological response to immediate disgust at an unknown silhouette of a description of a human being. that's how much this dude sucks, a brief recounting of one of his lovely affectations is enough to make an internet stranger literally spasm in momentary anguish

I think the person who won in 2011 was something about "longest rhythm and dance game" and didn't mention actual DDR so it is probably a different thing, if not I hope I didn't inadvertently doxx someone I was just trying to make a joke

Actually losing 75 pounds through exercise-gaming is pretty impressive considering you normally play in spurts and your heart rate isn't necessarily elevated for very long, so if you can actually turn it into meaningful exercise, kudos
