Took long enough to get to North America

You can now dance off extra pounds by playing the video game "Dance Dance Revolution". For a teen magazine toned article on Yahoo, go to this link: Yahoo! News - Video Game Fans Dance Off Extra Pounds. This article reads like a tabloid.

But... my point. DDR was popular in Japan 5 years ago! And yes, it is hard and you work up a sweat. Only, none of the game centers have them here any more. The latest game craze - taiko drums. Beat the drums to the beat of the music. This is lots more fun, and you don't risk falling on your ass in front of a whole bunch of people. And if you are playing with a partner and they miss the rhythm, you can always beat them with a drum stick. ;)
