    I remember at a party I threw a few years back we tried to play a bunch of multiplayer games using dance mats.  Street Fighter 2 is fairly doable that way, and I managed to kick ass as E. Honda.  One game that was pure pain though, was Metal Slug 3.  I don't think any of us managed to get past the first boss.  Trying to run, jump, turn AND fire with just two feet was way too much.

    Geez, I don't know SMB well enough to play it with a plain old gamepad.  My legs ache just watching that.
     
    I don't think they should call that thing a dance pad; for the most part it was just a foot controller, although about halfway through he does a pretty good Charleston :)

    @Nario: Major props, duder. Having jokingly attempted to play a couple of PS1-era platformers using a dance mat, I can seriously appreciate the amount of effort required to re-program your brain and channel the thoughts into your feet. Congratulations, and I wish you all the best with your future endeavours.

    That mat is more precise than I thought, you can actually play with it instead of against it.

    Yeah! It's pretty much a standard D-Pad built specifically for your feet. Although, I must admit that sometimes I move left when I attempt to hit the B button because the pad will slide just enough for me to forget where I'm standing, so it's really my fault. :)
     
    I just can't believe how much support I'm getting from you awesome duders. Thank you!

    Mega Man 2 is the "easy" Mega Man game, right?
     
    Because that would at least be within the realm of possibility and would not blow my mind as completely as certain other Mega Man games.

    I'd say go do Ducktails next. 
    I think attempting megaman 2 would leave you in 'development hell' along with Duke Nukem Forever. 
     
    Also, holy shit, dance pad Mario.. I wouldn't have expected it to be possible.
