Dance Dance Mario Mix Revolution For Nintendo Gamecube
The Dance Dance Mario Mix Revolution game is one of the few of its type for the Game Cube. The mat for this game is more responsive than the Mad Catz’s mat (previously the only version available for the Cube).
The Dance Dance Mario Mix Revolution mat is not only more responsive, but it is filled with vertical grooves which feel good on bare feet. It also has a sticky backing on the bottom to help keep the mat from slipping around. There is a silhouette of a break-dancing Mario in the center of this mat; making it a cool collectible for Mario lovers.
The game itself is based on the Dance Dance Revolution games that have become so popular. There are a couple major differences however. The Mario game still requires you to get up and hop around on the mat to play the game, and it does have music that you play to. That’s about it for likeness though.
The DDR games require some fast footwork for some of their songs, and you get graded on performance. You won’t see that in the Mario game. There are no grades, and even on the hardest level the steps aren’t too fast. You will hear the music on Mario, but on the screen you will see the awesome graphics for the storyline of Mario. In the Mario you are actually playing the game instead of just dancing to the arrows flashing on the screen in Dance Dance Revolution.
Because of the slower pace, and the storyline, this game would be perfect for some of the younger players. They will still get the exercise, but they will really enjoy the game. There are multiple levels to conquer, and bad guys to stomp on, as well as mushrooms to chase. There isn’t any grading to discourage the younger players either on the Dance Dance Mario Mix Revolution game.
Because of the easy levels, and the easy footwork involved in this game it wouldn’t be suitable for hard core Dance Dance Revolution fans. They could easily get bored with the simple steps, but then again they might enjoy the storyline too. If they happen to be a Mario fan then that could very well be true. Basically, this game is well suited for younger kids that don’t want to fail in the DDR games, but want to play by using the mats like the older kids do.
If you are really interested in finding this rare game, you are going to have to work at it. I have found that eBay and Amazon are the easiest places to find it. If you click on the picture above, you will be taken to the Amazon listing and below I have listed some of the Mario Mix games available on eBay.

Read MoreWhy I love games like Dance Dance Revolution
Even though this site is called Dance Dance Revolutions, we will be covering anything and everything about dance and exercise games. The number one reason people stop exercising at home is because they get bored with their workouts, but I have always found that if I am trying to beat someone, a score, or a goal then I am more likely to keep going back to that activity. If that activity, like dancing games, gets me a workout then it’s even better.
Right now, there are so many dancing games available that it is almost impossible to get bored. While walking on a treadmill is boring, concentrating on something while getting a workout is great. I feel like I’m working out my brain as well as my body.
I also love to play DDR with my husband, it’s something I’m better than him at so I always win 
We are very competitive and this really bothers him. Without him knowing, I do this on purpose so he’ll practice and burn some extra calories, because we both can use it.
As time goes on, when you visit this site again, you will begin to see my love of dance dance revolutions games shine through in my posts. I hope you’ll try it out and find out why I love playing these games so much.
Thank you for stopping by and welcome.

Read MoreZumba WII Review – My Initial Thoughts
Two weeks after receiving Zumba on WII game in the mail I finally ripped off the cellophane wrap and played it for the first time. This review are my initial thoughts on the game, more will come later after I have had a week or more to get acquainted with it and move up a couple of levels.

First of all, I do have to say that even though I am very critical of the game in this review, I still do recommend it. I have never tried the DVD’s, but I always have a difficult time with exercise videos because I can never get a sense if I’m doing something correctly. Even with the poor movement sensors for this game, it still kept me motivated enough to keep on pushing through.
I know I didn’t purchase this game for the navigation system, but I think it was horrible. I kept getting bumped back to a previous screen with the smallest flick of a button. This became very irritating as I was going through the tutorials because I had a difficult time figuring out where I was in the navigation system. I have to admit that I was being lazy and not pulling my WIImote out of the belt between the tutorials because it became a pain in the rear to pull it out every time I finished a 30 second tutorial.
Speaking of tutorials, they were not good at all. Having never been to a Zumba class in my life or trying the DVD’s I think they just went way too fast for my tastes. Once the game sensed that you were achieving the moves it went faster without marking through what was coming next. I think this is necessary because the extremely basic part of the move that you start off with is not the final step that you end up doing. This is a problem because of the poor accuracy when it comes to the game being able to detect what you are actually doing. If you just step away to get a drink of water, the game could think you have mastered the beginning step and move on without you, causing you to have to take the tutorial all over again.
I was also a little disappointed that this game does not have a way of generalizing how many calories you have burned. I realize everyone is different, but if you could enter your height and weight, I’m sure they could come up with a way of getting in the general vicinity of your calorie burn.
WII Zumba Motion Sensor
- In my eyes, it is not accurate. You could probably walk in place the entire time and receive a perfect score. Since I have no prior experience with Zumba, I can reassure you that it shouldn’t happen that way. In fact, after playing my first round, I received a score of 384 which put me at the Zumba Instructor level. I can reassure you, that’s not the case.
- The WIImote is placed in a belt that you wear around your waist to sense your hips moving, but there is no way the game can tell if you are moving your arms correctly.
Overall Zumba WII Fun Factor
While this game does have its faults, which I hope will be fixed in future versions, I did think this game was fun. So what if the controls aren’t perfect? So what if the score is jacked up because of the controller? It got my butt off the couch and got me moving and that’s what exergaming is all about. I also worked up a pretty good sweat while I was doing it too, which is a great thing.
I’ll post more in the upcoming weeks about the game and if it is keeping me motivated enough to keep using it, that’s the biggest battle many of us have when it comes to working out, sticking to it. Meanwhile, if you have played Zumba WII, feel free to post your comments below, I’m sure other readers would be very happy to hear from you.

Read MoreDance Dance Revolution Xbox Pad
The era of dancing is here with the DDR game and along with that is the Dance Dance Revolution Xbox pad. Many people, especially parents, are discovering that this game is a great way of getting their teens to exercise. The DDR game requires you to dance on a special mat to hit the arrows that flash on your screen at the appropriate times. The more arrows you hit on time the better you score, and yes the game grades you. Don’t be afraid of failing the first couple times you play, and master the easier dance routines before you move on to some of the harder ones. Since the game includes some popular songs and dancing routines it is a smash with some of the younger crowd.
The DDR game is available for the Xbox and the Dance Dance Revolution Xbox pad comes in a couple different models. You can get these mats in metal and in foam. The metal pads are set up to be pretty durable and are great for tournaments and competitions. They can also be used for private use though, and are a good idea if you have someone who likes to play the game constantly. These mats can be used on carpet of hardwoods floors as well. This means that you can set it up practically anywhere you want and the pad will work for you.
The foam mats are also pretty durable and have the added benefit of foam. The high density foam means that these types of mats aren’t quite as stressful on your feet. This is great when you like to play this game for hours at a time. Some of these mats also have a non-slip surface on the bottom so that they won’t slid around on the floor while you’re playing.
If you find that you like this game, or your kids are enjoying the exercise of playing the game, these newer mats are quite a bit more responsive. This means that you are more likely to score high on the dance routines that you can do well. It also means that you can’t hit the buttons at the wrong time or your score will drop. The high responsive buttons means that you have to be at the top of your game to get to the top of the game. Remember not to be afraid to fail. Everyone has to start somewhere. Just master the steps as you go along and you’ll get there. Most of all have fun with the game and the Dance Dance Revolution Xbox pad.
