emulating amiga Virtual reality ? - Page 3

This is probably the last holy grail bit of Amiga hardware yet to be emulated (in that there is actual software that requires it, vs. emulating yet another SCSI card or whatever).

OpalVision only had one game for it (King of Karate) and that got emulated. =)

There was a store called Incredible Universe in the U.S. near where I live that opened and when it first opened it had an Amiga 1200 showing VR. I was sooooo excited I watched the guys, this was many years ago or so..they had it also connected to another screen so people could see.

Everyone was asking what kind of computer it is..and they were answering. I don't remember the price for different allotted times. I didn't use it because I didn't personally like the VR of the time on my head. The Store was renamed to Fry's Electronics. Anyway... VR has reallllllllllly changed. Except for wearing it on your head. HA! I'm interested in the topic. Not that I'd own any hardware for it, I'm into other stuff, but the idea of emulation rocks!! Just as what I saw with Half-Life Alyx.

Holy Grail...anytime someone comments about that I think of Monty Python!

The link works fine here.
But if it does not work for you, here is a link to the Oculus store page.

I've made quite a few improvements to my home VR rig since the last post. Everything from a proper platform with edge steps to a secured seat. It's cool that Dactyle nightmare was ported, but I'd be interested in applying emulation for the remaining games. In particular the Mech one. Does anyone know of further developments or groups tackling the Virtuality arcade games?

All I could find was an old post on roadtovr about actual ports of some of the old vr games.
No planed release date so far.
