Dance Dance Revolution?

AND, are there any dance games for the wii balance board that don't need the DDR mat?
:bigsmile:

Wii DDR 3 uses the wii fit balance board. I haven't actually tried playing it that way, but it is an option for the DDR 3. Hope that answers your question. Maybe I'll try using the balance board tonight and I'll let you know if it's any good.

i didnt realize there really was a way to play on the balance board. i couldnt do it. i love my arrow-matt lol

i just played until I couldnt breathe hahaha. Im gettin better at the game but i gotta stop having my first song be on difficult even if i have energy for it

loserchick

So I tried out the wii balance board with the DDR 3 tonight. Once I got used to it, I actually enjoyed it. The bonus of using the balance board is that it more acurately calculates calories burned. I think I will definitely use the balance board again :bigsmile:

I hope this helps you out AuntieBK

last i checked my balance board was broken. sad, but i had gotten really bored with wii fit anyway. i should see if its working again soon so if i get bored with ddr i can switch it up with wii fit

Completely missed quite a bit of my exercise this week. Didnt get to do ANY DDR... but I am going to try to get some in tonight. Cleaning house and portioning out food for the week. Just stoped to take a break.

i'v just got the game and addicted, not aclue how much i have burnt on it like, don't really get how to check that on it, but I will figure it out an have a go next week at burning 1200.

Jovialation

you go to workout mode to be able to see what youve burned.

I didnt even finish my own challenge! i feel bad too lol.
but I was so sick all last week that I didnt exercise after monday. oops.
Im too exhausted from the weekend and the benadryl to work out today but THIS week I WILL get 1200 cals.

Im gonna keep this challenge up till more people finish it or join in.

Jovialation

300 cals burned today!

loserchick

That's awesome! I've been so bad this week for fitting in my exercise. I promise to burn another 1200 cal on the DDR by Sunday. There it's in writing, so I have to get it done :bigsmile:

Jovialation

ok im gonna hold ya to it!
i may not even get it done again cuz i have plans friday and im not sure i can make it to 400 calories the today and tomorrow

auntiebk

Yes dear LC that helps tremendously! Gonna buy the game this weekend! Thanks! Need some way to join some of the 1000 calorie burn day challenges. Thanks much!

Jovialation

i think i may lower the challenge to 900 hahaha
Ive been so busy lately!

either way i cant do it today, managed to hurt my foot yesterday. still a mystery as to whether is was ddr's fault or not

loserchick

So I totally didn't meet the number that I set for myself at all. In fact I haven't done any DDR at all this week. I've been doing tons of stuff around the house as I've just put my house on the market. So although I did no DDR I did still burn calories. I hope everyone else had a blast burning off the calories while bustin' a move

I use to date one of those guys that plays on the machines- watching him and his friends was alwas facisnating becuase they would move so fast on the expert mode songs on like 2 or 3x accelerator >< . Great work out for sure!!

Jovialation

lol! i get so mad at the people that are that good and plug like $5 into a machine when theres a line...not gonna lie.
I gotta play today for sure, I went wayyyy off my diet all weekend AND yesterday :[

auntiebk

Well gals, you persuaded me. Ordered DDR3 bundle from Amazon yesterday. Please tell me the "bundle" includes the mat? Even tho' I'll probably use the balance board...

Jovialation

Id assume it does....I still havent owned a newer DDR or played with the board lol

auntiebk

It arrived ALREADY! AND it came with the mat!

I unpacked but since I'm on my 3rd glass of merlot, won' try to hook it up tonight.

Celebrating, lost 1.5 # this week, AND fit into a 14/16W blouse that arrived today instead of my normal 18/20W 1x!

Whooppidy doo!

(sorry I'm a little silly, haven't had read wine in such a loooonnng time... ;

I have this for ps 2 and one of the high dollar mats, need to drag this out again, thanks for the thread ladies!

auntiebk

Help?:huh:
Where do I start?
DDR school doesn't count calories and seems to be for the mat not the balance board.
Found workout mode, but failed and the audience booed. :sad:
Finally got up to a D.
Is there a way to start with easier songs?

DH has been given strict instructions not to watch, not even to glance, with Medusa-like threats.:devil:

Boy, now I feel both dumb and ridiculous.

Maybe I just need to laugh more :laugh:

Thanks gals,

Jovialation

you can make it so you cant fail out of songs in workout mode, along with turning off certain kinds of steps. I dont know about that particular ddr game but hopefully this helps?
