Not compatible with Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 2
I bought this with the hope of using it with "Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 2" but I can't get it to work with it. I was hoping I could use a wireless dance pad because I don't like the idea of a long cable snaking across the floor which someone could trip over and knock down my Wii.

I think this is a problem with "Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 2" and not with the ICON wireless dance pad because I heard that "Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 2" has problems with other third party dance pads. I hope the makers of "Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 2" can come up with a fix to make it compatible with more third party dance pads.

The wireless dance pad itself seems well made. It has a rubberized bottom so it shouldn't slip or slide on the floor. It comes with a little wireless receiver that plugs into the GameCube compatible port on the Wii. The dance pad uses 4 AAA batteries. When you turn on the dance pad (using a little switch at the front of the pad), it briefly flashes a red light indicating it is trying to sync with the wireless receiver connected to the Wii. Once it is connected, the red light disappears and the wireless receiver will output a steady green light which is supposed to indicate that it is connected with its dance pad.

Unfortunately, I cannot report on how well it works because it seems to be incompatible with "Dance Dance Revolution Hottest Party 2".
