Developer Abhishek Singh recreated a life size Super Mario Bros. level and played it wearing HoloLens in New York’s Central Park. He did this all dressed as Mario. The project was made in development toolset Unity. Singh put it together over the course of about a month. https://uploadvr.com/super-mario-bros-ar-hololens/

This looks awesome, yet not something you'll ever catch me doing. However people chase pokemons out on the streets in masses so why not. It doesn't seem to practical as a game though, can't jump onto virtual platforms!

However, on a serious note. I've dragged board games out to picnics in the park before. If everyone has a hololens device, no need to bring that stuff and deal with the wind blowing stuff away and losing pieces. It will be a while until that's the cheaper option!



This look interesting and at the same time utterly horrible.



Looks so bad... maybe in 20 years this technology will be feasible and actually look decent.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

lol. Why not?

I imagine the people walking past him thinking, "WTF is wrong with this dude?"
