Keroro Gunsou Television Game

Dance Dance Revolution made players step and stomp with mucho gusto. By watching arrows on screen and moving in time to the cues, players were rewarded with words of encouragement and adulation.

Borrowing the stepping and stomping bit from Konami, Bandai releases a dedicated Keroro Gunsou game which plugs into a television and features a special step control mat for user input. The CPU aka the brains of the game is mounted on the top of the dancing mat which makes for an "all-in-one" design. The Keroro Gunsou tv game features 12 challenges which include:

» A racing challenge where players have to stomp up and down to mimic running motion. Fast foot falls result in a speedy Keroro.
» Projectile fight where frogs battle it out on a snowy battlefield.
» Tug of war where one frog tussles against another frog. He who lacks strength will fall into a gloomy pit.
» Janken where players throw out rocks, papers, or scissors hand signals in order to defeat an opponent who's throwing out the same.
