    Just questioning how people can play more privacy-based games like Scrabble or Battleship with this concept. Do you need a separate screen to connect or will it just be out there for everyone to see?

    Chess? Backgammon? Save a chess game for later? Have multiple games in play?

    Hope you can use this with DnD map software. Though it doesn’t look like it is very fast.

    dumbest idea ever, everywhere you want to play you have to bring a whole table with you, for the 600 bucks you can get a ton of games, and then a big part of playing a fun game with your family is getting away from the electronics. I can see the advantage of playing online if there is really no other way, but then still, playing a game is not just for the game but having fun with your family and that seems hard to do online.

      Just let your family come to you why would you bring it. If they cant come tell them to buy one too and play online.

    This is pretty cool. Also imagine being unfriended in a virtual board game. 😂

    This may finally be a viable way to play Wizard’s Chess.

    Seems like a neat concept. I would like to see if you could maybe purchase the games on an iPad and play with people using this table

    hopefully this can be modded for like a raspberry pi or something to open up what you could do with it.

    If it’s online with another person, it would be great to have a microphone (no camera) so you can talk to the other person at the same time you are playing.

    I am assuming they already thought of this, but that would be great for virtual pinball.

      Yep, arcade 1up has a few different virtual pinball tables out.

    Hopefully they will make a tabletop unit. The legs on that unit looked like it was for small kids.
