Piss screen demands both bladder control and gaming skills
Above: The mini-dance mat, yesterday. Bit of a cheat if you ask us
The Handheld Dance Mat A mini dance mat, designed to be played by hand. Which, of course, really defeats the purpose, doesn't it? But then, with most gamers possessing hugely muscular hands trained from hours of pad-grasping, combined with the reed-thin sun-starved legs of an invalid, perhaps this cop-out controller isn't the bare-faced cheat it first appears to be. Of course, it does serve the admirable duty of enabling disabled gamers to get involved, though perhaps with a slightly unfair advantage...
They say: "Dance mat controller for the hands"; "Play against people using full sized dance mats"; "Too fat, too old or too lazy to get into dancing games?"
What they don't say: "Take to parties to avoid awkward late-night dampness"; "Play against people using dance mats, incurring their disgust and envy at the same time!"; "Too fat, old or lazy? Stay that way!"
