what an expensive way to do PE
|

Considering my school ONLY has $650 a year to spend on its PE department, if they go with a very robust mat. (AKA: Cobalt Flux) They would probabbbly never have to replace the mats and can keep it running all the time. (Untill the PS2 craps out.) I mean, it's a standard TV (I can get one at around $10, and my school has a huge surplus of that crap anyways) A new or used ps2 at around $70 to $30, and buy a tv/ps2 stand (Which my school has a surplus of those as well as we get rid of our projectors and use ceiling digital projectors. (720p Toshiba projectors) but those stands run from $20 to $50. The two dance mats can range from $35 each - $750 (Though Cobalt Flux is the way to go @ $300 each)
and a copy of DDR Extreme 1 or 2 or SuperNova ($30, $40, $60) so you end up if it was at MY school, it'd possible ending cost would be: at around ~$700. Smallest price range would be: ~$130 and largest price range would be: ~$1610
Notice that the most expensive thing would be the dance mat, but if you go with more expensive the less times you'd have to replace it.
Usually the saying goes "You give them what they want, you get what you want." So when you have the DDR Stations set up, you also put a portable water dispenser around the machine.
I'm sure that it'd be prettty popular. (Hell, I'd think it'd be popular if we had an arcade machine on campus that you feed quarters. *getting close to $3,500 with special monthly work, etc*)
So it's expensive, but it does exercise you pretty well. (I do DDR alot, I own a metal dance pad of my own, I own DDRs for Xbox and 360, and have StepMania.)
