I bought the wii u console specifically to play this game.
Connect dance mat to wii u.
Mayflash a company famed for its weird and wonderful unofficial peripherals has produced an adapter which plugs into the wii u and allows you to connect gamecube pads.

One crucial part i should add before you decide to purchase this game is that it is compatible with the wii u and new wii consoles.

However only the old wii has gcn ports on the console which is for the dance pad.
I could not find a way to connect the round connector attached to the dance dance revolution controller to the wii u.
Retailing on amazon.
Problem is those adapters only work for one game.
A company called mayflash has released a converter that lets you use gamecube controllers on the wii called the mayflash nintendo gamecube controller adapter for wii wii u.
It s labeled as a wii mat but the functionality seems to be copied from konami s gamecube mat which was sold with ddr mario mix for gamecube.
Please note that these ports are associated with your wii remotes if you have multiple dance mats you will need to connect them to the sockets corresponding to the remote player 2 uses the second port and so on.
It only works on dolphin with ddr mario mix and unlike actual designed for wii mats the controls do not need to be remapped to play mario mix.
4 connect the dance mat to the first socket the one with a single dot on the plastic above it.
I am wondering if there is any kind of adapter or anything really that will allow me to use the active life mat with my new wii u console.
To my knowledge all of the wii dance pads are technically gamecube dance pads that plug in through the gamecube ports on the wii so the only way to use a wii pad on a wii u would be to use a gamecube adapter.
