It supports any game controllers you might have (of course you’ll have to configure them first) from simple joysticks to dance pads and even Wiimotes – anything Windows recognizes. If you’ve ever played around with Rejoice and similar programs, you definitely need to check this out.

I can’t find a working download link or any info about Rejoice, so that you’ll have to find yourself if you ever want to try this. (hint: p2p)

Oh yeah, and excuse the crappy dancing.

Edit: Since I’ve been getting a lot of Google hits on this post looking for dance pad to midi converters, check this out: midity
