      My mom bought me a cheap butterfly light up stick that sounded like it was being played through a car crash as the rubble compressed and shattered at a fair. I loved it when I was a kid but as I got older I didn't care about it anymore so I just tossed it somewhere. For the next five years I would randomly find it and it would play out that song and the quality of the song was never good but it got worse as the years went on till at some point it also began to sound like it was also being waterboarded but aslo really screechy. I finally snapped and threw it in the garbage when my parents weren't looking. Now every time i hear Butterfly all i can think of is that god forsaken stick.

    I actually learned to play DDR by putting Stepmania in no-fail mode and pretending to play using my basement tile floor as a rough approximation. Did this regularly for at least 4 or 5 months before I could scrounge enough money to buy Supernova on PS2. At that point I was good enough to hop straight into the easier expert songs so it worked pretty well.
    Now I have an actual Supernova cabinet at home I feel like I kinda went full circle

    When I was a kid my sister had something similar.
    It was like a self-contained DDR council system. It came with a box that projected the arrows up onto the wall and two game pads that plugged into it. As far as we could tell the game pads did absolutely nothing. They provided zero feedback so the fact that they plugged into the machine was literally just for show. The projector was also extremely cheep, kind of like those holiday decorations that project static images onto your house.
    Also it could only play like three songs and they all sucked.

    I remember seeing this video when it was relatively new. I remember getting so hyped up when I saw the segment about StepManiaX. As of now, a new arcade had opened in my area in southeastern Pennsylvania that has a StepManiaX cabinet. It absolutely lives up to the hype. As much as I always thought I'd be a 4 panel DDR/ITG purist, my experience with StepManiaX has changed that. And seeing how many other people are getting hyped about StepManiaX and how much Kyle Ward loves to interact with fans, I hope to see a growing future for StepManiaX. The stage pad is definitely the best dance pad I've ever used. And the 5th center panel is really easy to adapt to for someone like that's been playing 4 panel DDR/ITG for over 15 years. I could play it for hours.

    Hey do you know if they have a keyboard controller where it's got the up down left and right like it would be on a keyboard but instead of having the left down and right all in the same row have the down spread out more like the DDR pad but it only just has those keys and that's it.
    Maybe even something like that but the keys are bigger like a few inches by a few inches so it's more like a hand pad so you just use like your four fingers to hit it to the buttons.

      L-Tek is not bad though. If you don't get the Cobalt ones and you only manage to get L-Tek you are still gonna enjoy an experience that is 10 better than a soft pad.

      So I don't find L-Tek to be "C" tier. I had 2 Cobalt Fluxes in the past and my L-Tek holds up _much_ better. The old CF's I could barely muster 10s (old scale) and the accuracy suffered after a few months. My L-Tek pad has been wonderful, accurate and I haven't modded it at all. Granted, I'm not Marvelous attacking ITG songs, but I consistently PFC songs in Stepmania using default judgement settings.

    I’m so confused on how this video only has 4K views. I’m a fan of your videos and this is such a good video IT NEEDS MORE VIEWS (also yes i know this video isn’t even a day old)
