Figure 10 is cool, though. It shows that they had at some point planned to show people food equivalents for calorie burn. So, you could play DDR for 10 minutes and be told you burned off a banana. E1.gif


Interestingly enough, that was implemented, but not necessarily in-game. Included in DDR 3rd Mix (and possibly other Japanese Mixes of the PS era) is a small card insert with information about "Diet Mode" (Workout Mode to us). On one side is a chart of various foods and their calorie equivalents. So, that 10 minute banana you mentioned is 70 kcal according to this chart, heh. It's mainly got what look to be typical Japanese dishes, but there are some more recognizable foods, like a slice of bread, a bowl of rice, various other fruits, and even a double cheeseburger (550 kcal). It might take a few 10's to earn a double cheeseburger, though E13.gif

I don't know, but ITG home version's fitness mode seems weird. I burned like 200 calories playing one expert song where it'd take me one game to burn that much in the arcade.
