How about a plevic thrust button?

plasmix · 10-10-2003, 09:47 PM

How about two buttons near the head residing by either sides of your temples? I call it the self-pressure seizure buttons.

DrunkCat · 10-10-2003, 09:50 PM

I know! The swirvel pad, where you get to spin around in DDR for certain steps!

Shot me now. :/

**nestlekwik** · 10-10-2003, 10:02 PM

There would be no gameplay changes I'm aware of. It's just piracy detourants.

SotN · 10-10-2003, 10:05 PM

Hard-to-implement, would-cost-more-money-than-it-would-save, detourants.

DrunkCat · 10-10-2003, 10:06 PM

More-than-three-dollars-to-play-then. :/

SotN · 10-10-2003, 10:09 PM

I'm talking about the Konomi end of things. I dont think they could come up with a system that would successfully deter pirating without spending alot of money and pumping out a new version every 4 months.

deepbluevibes · 10-10-2003, 11:38 PM

rofl.

there are no legitimate versions of DDR EX anywhere in the USA.

they're all either bootleg or illegal.

**nestlekwik** · 10-11-2003, 12:00 AM

Nah, there are legit EXs in the U.S. However, that number is in the single digits.

deepbluevibes · 10-11-2003, 12:10 AM

uhm.. no.. considering it says on the game that this machine is not to be sold or played out of japan...

eldiabo3005 · 10-11-2003, 12:17 AM

Haha, Yeah I was just about to say that it does say Not To Be Sold Or Played Out Of Japan.

Well, they could have got permission to use them in the US and they didn't take to sticker off.

**Hyrogashi** · 10-11-2003, 03:32 PM

That means when they make a new one, it wont come out in the U.S.

nestlekwik:
I was just at the DDR machine at the Dayton Mall today and I looked for what you were talking about. Though I hadn't really paid attention before I read this thread, it's really obvious the machine's not legit. The marquee doesn't quite fit in the slot and has poorer print quality than it should be. The "frame" around the screen is wrong - it's not an EX frame (plus the button labels are in English.) One of the "select" buttons (the one on the machine itself) is white and round and the other one is orange.

I bet the one in Middletown is legit. I should take photos and post them somewhere.

**nestlekwik** · 10-11-2003, 08:33 PM

I've heard there is two legit EX machines in the U.S. My friend Brian McClean owns one at Wright State University and I hear the other one is in Seattle.

And by the way, legit and legal are two different things. Just because the machines aren't supposed to be sold outside of the Japan doesn't mean the machine can't be legit (not bootlegged).

**Spazzbite** · 10-11-2003, 09:07 PM

urgh... Just downloaded it and played it. Got 3 greats on Heavy AND Challenge. I'm not going to play this song again because I hate it so much.

10-11-2003, 09:15 PM

Nestlekwik: so are you going to the WSU DDR tournament then?

It was like 3-5 months ago. If you've been to gamefaqs you'd know that they purge their posts that are inactive. How long is how long? About 2 years or so. By new hardware I mean it will probably be on a dual disc dvd thing instead of single disc and it might have different pads or something. So it could have songs in the 400-500+ amount range.

But if you want to ask iori yourself you can ask on http://pub16.ezboard.com/bthedjtrunksownsyouboard

Your an idiot, this is the best song ever made, and there IS NO CHALLENGE what the FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT IDIOT?!

Arch, thanks for the link.

SotN · 10-12-2003, 12:42 AM

:P

It's only the heavy steps.

Arch0wl · 10-12-2003, 04:11 AM

There is a challenge mode for it. It's an easier version of the heavy steps. It's in the aaron in japan thread about it.
