At SportWall’s IHRSA 08 fitness and health trade show booth we could have a second look on the new PIU Pro multiplayer system. The MP system is wireless.
The maximum number of players is 32. An interesting feature is that people can choose from one difficulty to play or three different difficulties to play. Thus if you choose three you will see three different sets of arrows. Modifiers chosen apply to all three difficulties. At music select screen you see the connected pads and the disconnected ones.
During gameplay you see the arrow evaluation for each player on the bottom of the screen. At the end of the song you will see the grade and percentage you got.
The pads are pretty slim and they really look bad. The worse thing (for now I hope) is that the panels don’t have the same dimensions as the arcade ones. Also the pads does not seem to be too sturdy so I don’t know how much they can survive.
