Message: <blockquote data-quote="cubemoss" data-source="post: 73645" data-attributes="member: 2344">There are some problems with the ideas of using the Oculus Rift with physical pinball controls.  The main thing is, when you're wearing the Rift, you can't see anything outside of it.  So you're gonna be kind of fumbling around to get your hands on the controls at times.This is compounded with the problems of depicting virtual arms and hands inside the Rift.  Even if there are some generic arms and hands shown onscreen in the Rift, without additional arm and hand-tracking peripherals, they're not going to move as you move your real arms and hands.  This is more than a trivial problem, as users of the Rift have described this kind of disconnect between what you're seeing and what you're expecting to see is extremely disorienting and confusing.  There will no doubt be solutions developed for these issues, but they'll be developed over the long haul... in the meantime, what would work well is just using the Rift and a regular game controller.</blockquote>
