DDR X -- Problems with new cabinet (playing Dynamite Rave, Doubles Challenge)

[Ari22682]

That 1-R arrow seemed especially contentious.

o-o

I'm not used to this design. Especially with the Guitar Hero Arcade bass lights used (and yes, Konami released a genuine Guitar Hero arcade game in cooperation with Activision and Raw Thrills).

I took a gander at the original Japanese DDRX cabinet and it looks flashier than this -- LED light stands and all. I made note of this in a Notepad file covering lots of games.

yo! this is lasertag adventure right? i was just playing there last night and my only complaint was them having the volume ridiculously low + blasting fucking katy perry through there shitty speakers.

[traviskeshav]

@puppydrowner147 Yeah, that's where it is. The video is pretty old, though -- I haven't been there in a long time.

[Ultima64]

they need to hire the guys at roxor games to make their pads next time

[GamePro0012]

@Ultima64 Don't you mean Andamiro? Because THEY manufactured the cabinets for ITG 2.

[WTFseabass]

i always wondered if its possible to throw away those crap o pads and get some real japan ddr pads, the metal ones not the wooden ones...its just sad how konami satisfies the japan players but hey konami, we in america would like the same!!! e-amuse too!!!

[interestsarefree]

I agree with you completely.

Dave & Busters here in NYC has one of these and I couldn't get higher than a D on songs I AA with no problem in Extreme, SN and SN2 at the Chinatown Fair or Toys R Us.

Similar thing happened in Akihabara, Tokyo.

If I had to guess, I'd blame my feet. I'm a size 12!

Perfect example: SONG=Blue Impulse, ELSEWHERE=AA, THIS CABINET=Failed

Huh?!?!?

[Cobaltwire]

That's the DDR X Machine? Er... not liking the new look. Anyhow, yeah, when it comes to making dance pads that break alot, and have crap response time, Konami's elite at making those. I play SN and SN2 over here. So far SN has fantastic response time, but UP arrows miss fire and lock up alot on both side. SN2 Just has crap response time. DDR's been around for the longest time now, but still haven't perfected the pads yet which is sad. I seriously miss the perfect ITG pads. Go to hell Konami.

[vorpal22]

Just watched it again, and yeah... R1 is epically failing on those pads. Can you even bracket with the new design?

[vorpal22]

Shitty. I haven't tried the arcade version but the home version is possibly my favourite DDR yet... the doubles steps are awesome, IMO.

[mattvan]

Konami fails to deliver in new ways every time. This is just deplorable.

[hurtpiggypig]

WOW that is completely ridiculous.

[DrayneGames]

i played X for the first time yesterday at SVGL. that cabinet is brand new, and its horrible. i couldnt get higher than a C on anything, the screen lagged, and the announcer does suck a lot. too bad that the game is actually pretty good and looks nice on the new monitor, the monitor will be fixed when eAmuse supposedly and hopefully maybe comes out for DDR X for USA, and people will have to convince their arcades to mod their pads to make them respond right :(

[lokoskater666]

damn dude

that sucks

but that doesn't look like the cab in drdvids videos

this one looks kinda weird haha

[KanadianKyuubi]

the cab in his is just a regular DDR cab
