Props to someone doing a lets play of a dance game. I used to be really into these games back in the DDR extreme days and even won a few local tournaments. After a while the whole competitive aspect kinda stopped interesting me by the time ITG2 came out and I pretty much only played for fun after that point.

Working in an arcade for 8 years gave me lots of amazing stories and experiences when it came to these games. My two favorite events were seeing the looks on everyone's faces when I installed the R21 usb songs patch and again when I figured out how to modify the machine for custom everything.

It's really fascinating to look at how far the songs have changed over the years despite never actually changing the game engine. It was crazy enough when the arrows would slow down, speed up or stop in the middle of a song. These days you have full blown 'Anime' boss fights happening onscreen as you play.

I'm still glad I was able to upload a few videos of our machine to youtube before my store inevitably shut down last year.

Couples charts are pretty fun if you can get a decent partner to play with. Otherwise a lack of spacial awareness will cause many feet stepped on and hilarious body collisions.

With some clever scripting and a custom arrow skin some doubles charts are set up to have each arrow as a specific color. In couple charts red arrows are meant for player one and blue arrows are meant for player 2.
