The controller mat is not an option. It is required and very difficult to find. I am having troubles. The statement that this will run with a standard controller is incorrect. Also, this will not run with the Konami DDR Max mat either. .

Buy the Konami Playground Frogger Game. This is the only one of the 4 games in the series that includes this special dance mat.
