I just got DDR Hottest Party 2 last weekend. I thought it would be wireless like the Wii controllers. Unfortunately, it's not. I haven't used it yet because the cord on the dance mat is too short. We have a 50" big screen TV. There's no way we can put the Wii console on the floor. If you have a TV big enough that you have to put all your tech on top of it, make sure you buy an extension cord for the mat. You can find the cord online under Gamecube controller extension. They run between $3.25 and $20 depending on the site, shipping is extra (of course). Amazon doesn't have it but they do post a link to a seller as of 12/2/08. Everyone I know who has this game loves it. I look forward to swapping it off with Wii Fit. Fit gets a little boring after you've unlocked all the levels.

I've owned Hottest Party 2 for about a month now -- what a great buy!
I bought the game as a way to provide exercise without having to go to a gym. It definitely does the trick for cardio. I breath heavily, I sweat, and I feel lighter on my feet.
I'm a big guy, and I was worried that this might make ddr the wrong choice for me. Not so - there is an option to turn off "jumping" in the game. After doing so, I find it is pretty low impact. That is, unless you've twisted your feet in knots and have to hop a bit to make sure you don't miss an arrow.
I've never been a great dancer, and I doubt this game will fix that. (I've only made it to "basic" mode after a month.) Basic is plenty to get your heart pumping though. No particular expertise required.
Overall, this is a great game and definitely worth the cost.

I'm a beginner and I love this game. They need to add arrows in the corners too. I also wish it was not so hard to get additional pads for this.

I had become a big fan of DDR, so I just HAD to have DDR 2! Love that the grading seems to be easier and that I can play six songs as a set and can even pick what six songs to play. A great work out! I had already lost 15 pounds playing DDR for the past year. I have finally found a workout that's fun! Keep them coming, please

Well, I guess age is hitting me big time with this new technology, I was the expert in the house and now I guess I failed with this DDR 2.
For a start, why on earth we should use Hand marker with the remote chuck, it should be a dance game, so legs are supposed to move, I know it might make the experts enjoy it more but for the lazy ones like me IT IS NOT.
I tried to turn all the option of the remote chuck off but still nothing changed, apparently none of my steps are counting only the remote ones are!
So guys, I need help to start enjoying my game and lose some calories!
HELP!!!!!
