Do you think kids in the future will have the same nostalgia about playing pinball on a curved monitor as we do about real pin ball? Or old stand up games? I mean, I've been dragged kicking and screaming into touch screens. I liked the old tactile qwerty cell phone keyboards in the early days. But I've adjusted. Still I thought this was a pretty clever use of a curved monitor.
I didn't know much about this company before today. I guess they make touch screens. Here is their home site.
It's an interesting concept. The virtual pins are pretty cool, there will be a big market for them. This is more of a tablet type pin game though. The curve works against them with virtual pins because you can't mount it in an old cabinet. I could see the monitors adding more to a sit down racer or spaceship game where you could create an environmental effect. DF
