RE: Five Facts about me: Following the Trend

in #fivefacts6 years ago

Awesome post! Thats pretty badass about working in a VR arcade, I've seen a few popping up locally nowadays with the full room greenscreened out and all that, wondering if you think these will become big hits, could be a great business opportunity.

Sort:  

I would love to see these become a really business opportunity. I grew up in arcades and think this is the evolution. I thought that in the 90's as well. Just last week I spent an afternoon at Cactus Jack's In Oklahoma City playing pinball and video games. I think that these old school arcades COULD take it to the next level. At cactus Jacks they had rooms of computers for online gaming, the next step is VR.

The Oculus and Vive are great. I still see them as the 8-bit get of the the tech though. I know that the 8k VR is coming, but there is a tactile need and the ability to really walk. It is coming and in another 5 years we will have something close to that. That of course will be the arcade version, but the home experience will be wireless and much more versatile.
