Title: Virtual arcade through the Oculus Rift.

Hi,

Didn't know where else to post this, but thought it was a great general interest story. I am the owner of both versions of the Oculus Rift development kit (DK1 and DK2), and am looking forward to trying this out when the author releases it:

Ya, I've seen that, and I actually thought the one I posted and the one you posted were from the same guy/gal/people. Looks like two separate developers are pursuing the same coolness.

I just love the pixel level detail on the screens of the machines.
