Default DDR SOLO ALMOST KILLED ME!

Yeah, thats right. I went to a lazer tag place called Ultrazone and was playing the DDR SOLO Mix they had there. First time I had ever done it on an actual arcade machine. I hadnt done corner arrows since DDR Konamix came out, yeah a long time ago.

So I play some easy songs like B4U and Butterfly Upswing Mix on light to get warmed up, and then I remember that I used to bead Drop Out on Standard with ease, so I thought I would try it again, but half way thru the song, I failed (sad panda).

So I chilled out and actually played a game of lazer tag, and the next game wasnt for a couple of hours since they had their midnight run thingy. Me and my friends went to Starbucks and got some drinks, then we went back and listened to some J-Pop in my friends car, then I felt the need to play SOLO again. I really wanted to beat Drop Out.

So I get up there again and I loose one of my quarters from my dollar that I had exchanged. That sucks when you do that, but luckily it was only 75 cents. I play one song, pass with ease. Play another, psh what a sinch. I play Drop Out on Standard again and I'm doing great. I'm into the music workin the crowd. 2 seconds before the song ends, I go for the corner arrow and I hear a crack over the music and I start to fall. Luckily there was a big pole I could fall on to. I fail the song and thats what sucked most of all that night.

So I could not actually stand on my foot, and I was twice the size of all my friends, who were girls and also half my hight, no offence to them <3. I had to sit out for the next game of lazer tag since I didnt want to ruin their fun. I got my money back as well. I took my shoe and sock off, ow, and a few moments later when my foot got cold, I couldn't put my sock back on it. I know, I went 'awww' too. I called my dad and told him what happened. Later he told me he got a feeling about an hour before I called him saying that I would get hurt, but that I would be fine and he wouldnt have to do anything.

Well, later I find out that I had actually broken my foot. I'll add my x-ray at the end of this. Yes I had actually done it. 5+ years of playing and it finally happened. I couldnt believe it. So getting to the car was fun since I had to use my short friends as crutches. Yeah, that took about 10 minutes and the car was only 20 feet away. Which makes sense since I only had 1 foot to walk on.

Anyways, I'm out of work, and I'm currently sitting at home finding things to do and loving my n64. Mario Party, Mario Party 2, and Mario Kart have all made this experience well worth it. I've been out for about 4 weeks now, and I have about 3 or so more to go.

So this is my story. Hope it was a good one, and tho DDR really didnt "almost kill me" I did break a bone half-way. I hope this has entertained you for at last 5 or so minutes. My friend says I should tell my story to E3. Haha. Yeah. I'll go back to healing now....

This is why they show that warning at the beginning of every game.

How did you get that X-ray scan out of the doctor's office?

Haha, yeah. Tho I already knew what it said, it was all in Kanji/Japanese (I think it was anyways, hehe). X3

Urgent Care sent me home with my x-rays to take in to the doctors office a couple days later. My dad scanned it in and tweaked it a lil bit to show the breakage a lil more. Originally there was no yellow box with the enlargement. :nods:

So how'd you actually break your foot, you never really explained. You came down and landed on the side of your foot or something?

DDR Solo is amazing for three reasons:

The announcer, Dream A Dream [Miami Booty Mix], and Freaky. The pinnacle of DDR.

And on topic, ouch.

It was a solo 4th though. (which is better, has a better announcer, a better version of Dream a Dream, and doesn't have Freaky, but instead has Let Them Move which is much better)

Oh yeah, and the random real-life breakdancing background vids were cool too.

Ultrazone? With a Solo cabinet?

Hahaha, I know where you were playing at! The sensors still working in that cab after all this time?
