Super Arena II

Juniper Foo | Apr 04, 2006

If you've ever played the home edition of the arcade game Dance Dance Revolution, the Super Arena II begs not to differ, by much. Using sensors you attach to all four limbs (they're clearly labelled in English despite being distributed by China-based Jetion), the gameplay is complete once you step onto a touch-sensitive mat. This mirrors an actual gamepad with your feet acting in place of your thumbs and fingers, and is hooked up to a console and TV screen. It isn't clear if you can purchase additional game CDs, but the one we saw demo'd at CeBIT was a wrestling game, with the volunteer working up a good sweat K.O.ing his virtual opponent. There's also Soccer Arena if you fancy prepping for the World Cup in June.
