Video: Power Pad Commercial And Dance Aerobics

qpsL1iBXPmvfnkgkJ9yjf6hBo1_400.jpg

Ah the 80's! Entire outfits were arranged with leg warmers in mind and in your face product placement dominated the commercials for anything Nintendo. Long before Wii Fit was firming our bottoms into more pleasing shapes there was Dance Aerobics for the NES. This work out program used a variety of exercises and Nintendo's floor peripheral: the Power Pad. As the player progressed through a series of routines with mounting difficulty, mistakes would be counted and removed based on total performance. Also included were the Pad Antics mode with music memorization and Twister-like games and an Aerobics endurance mode for players who desired more of a challenge. These "totally hip" exercises promised hours of entertainment, especially for the casual onlooker. Dance Aerobics provided solid use of the Power Pad paving the way for our current dance pads and games like Dance Dance Revolution.
