The Oculus Arcade app, which lets you play old school arcade games in virtual reality, will work on existing Gear VR devices and Samsung Gear VR smartphones as well as the upcoming consumer version of the Oculus headset.
Taking gamers into virtual arcades that include classic games from Midway, Bandai Namco and Sega, the experience might just be the best way to capture some of that old school, pop-a-quarter magic from the ’80s.
Not shown in the above video are other classic games that will be available in Arcade — such as Galaga , Defender, Virtua Fighter 2, Shinobi III and many others.
The virtual arcade perfectly replicates the lighting and overall feel of old school gaming halls, all the way down to the Vegas casino-style carpeting.
Whereby we cant say if its comparable to NewRetroArcade with these stunning screenshots below, we can say its a step in the right direction for us wanting one!
