For almost as long as video games have existed, they’ve been criticized for keeping kids indoors, sedentary, eyes glued to screens. The Nintendo Power Pad or Dance Dance Revolution could be seen as responses to that criticism—DDR is even offered in a Classroom Edition, which the developer, Konami, says “has been recognized by leading researches [sic], schools and doctors as an innovative and fun solution to promoting a healthy lifestyle and fighting child obesity.” These games may get you moving, but ultimately, they still hold you in one room.
