Yeah, at the rate plastic dance mats wear out, I wouldn't be able to trust these at all.

I'd be careful about these. I've seen some of them that had pre-NES era visuals and audio. Heck, even a few that had hacks of games like NES Pinball on them. :/
The teacher across my room bought won for his students to play on, because he saw me using my Mario DDR game. He kept telling me how great it was gonna be. When it came in it had 8 bit graphics, and NES music. It sucked. So I did what I had to do. I laughed in his face.

I had kind of figured on the 8-bit music. I mean in order to have a cd's worth of songs on it, they'd have to cost at least 2-3 times as much for the flash storage required.

LOL Is it the one that was on QVC before Christmas? I wanted to get my hands on one due to curiosity but it sold out - was something like "Dance Party 3." It had the crappy 8 bit DDR game, one of the hacks of NES Pinball like I said before, and some boxing game... that they never showed but I was guessing it would be a hack of NES Punch-Out!! I just wanted to see if it was freaking Punch-Out!!
I would LOVE to see a dump of the 8 bit pirate DDR game from that though, although the one's I've seen all looked like they were 4-5 color. LOL Told you guys. LOL
They made the DDR Gameboy Color games look and sound amazing. (although those aren't bad in the least, kinda charming actually)
