I have actually caught myself, while playing shooters or survival horror games mostly, leaning my head left or right trying to get a better peek around a corner in a game. Wow would this be cool! This is great!

I would have never thought that 3-d tracking technology for games would be so simple. Nintendo better get this guy a development job fast, or someone else will. This guy is brilliant!

Nintendo really should hire this guy. He has come up with a really cool idea, and if it was worked on, perfected and commercialised this could be the next big thing of gaming!! would be awesome for 1st person shooter games. i saw this video a few months back and it still amazes me!

Better than the LCD shutter glasses i still have lying around in a box somewhere since you dont need a 200Mhz screen display to get a 100Mhz 3D picture. Also, These shutter glasses work with every OpenGL / DirectX compatible game just through an additional tool which reconfigures the nVidia driver for the 3D display and i think it should be fairly easy for nVidia to adapt that tool for this 'reverse wii-mote' method. I really would like to see this concept turned into a real world product and if the hardware is solid i'd be really happy to shell out a 100 bucks for this. This is a really great idea.

Only problem is it divides your fps by the number of players. For cheap multiplayer you could use shutter glasses (user sees only every nth frame).

It's like a virtual boy that actually works and isn't just red and black and doesn't make your eyes hurt (that was a pretty bad console all round...)! The only problem with this though is that in real life it would probably be less impressive because I am partially blind and have no depth perception... so for me at least I'm hoping the move to VR won't come too soon. Also because playing Resident Evil in 3D would probably render me unable to sleep for at least a year. ^_^ Wow!

Although people who have tried it on their own say the effect, sadly, isn't as spectacular as the video make it look. :/ It sure looks awesome!
