Personal review

"Dance Aerobics" is the third game in Bandai's Family Trainer series. The game has a concept that would eventually become popular a decade later, when Konami started its Dance Dance Revolution series. You must follow all of the tutors moves on the Power Pad accessory to advance to the next, more difficult, level. Sure, the concept is new, but I think it fails to impress in a 8-bit environment. Always the same music and only little graphical variety. For the US version they added little speech samples, which don't sound very good but are rarely heard on the NES.
