Maybe this is the future of arcades?

I can only imagine what it will look like to walk into a room full of people wearing headsets flailing around.
-
@Floob if they are marketed anything like the one at the mall by my home probably not.
They charge like $50 for an hour or day or something ridiculous like that to which I say: I could play for a week or I could save up and buy my own VR.
I'll stick with my RetroPie build ;)

There is an arcade a few hours away from me. $25 gets unlimited free play all day.
-
Pick pockets will have a field day ... Once somebody pops one of those on there head there getting robbed . Lol
-
I think less people get hurt playing on arcade machines than they do in VR. I wonder if they're going to make you sign a waiver before you can play?
-
@backstander Not only that, arcade machines are made to be durable. I have to think if you drop that headset it's not going to hold up well.

@obsidianspider Yeah, I'm surprised the guy in the video above didn't crack that headset or his face!
