You know Konami…They made Contra and all those Ninja Turtles games that my brother and I played for hours on end. Castlevania? Yep. Konami. Gradius? Also Konami. Metal Freaking Gear? Konami.
They also make the Dance Dance Revolution games.
What would happen if you combined all those games into one simple essence that can be played by just using one button? That is Tomana Sanner, a game out in Japan right now that is crazy popular.
Crazy popular in a country that brought you that Laser Cheese Guy.
Here’s are some screenshots from Tomana Sanner to clear things up:

Maybe the game’s description will help us decipher what’s going on:
Players take on the role of businessman Hitoshi Susumu, who finds himself very behind schedule and therefore “won’t stop running until he gets to his ultimate dance party.”
If that didn’t sell the game for you, you should know that there will be online leaderboards. You know, like if you ever wanted to compare your triceratops riding scores with the Frankenstein’s monster bowling scores of another player from across the globe.
Why am I intrigued? This is further evidence that I broke my brain writing that rhyming book.
