Brothers Kyle and Michael Markus grew up in Kelowna and watched all the fun stuff like the Flinstones shut down.
The pair wanted to give back to the community and bring back activities more than just hitting the beach.
Kyle says the project has been five years in the making, but together they finally opened Virtual Rcades.
91裸聊视频淭here are lots of virtual reality arcades where you go and put on the headset and you look at visuals. What we want to do is we want to take it to the next level where you91裸聊视频檙e not just seeing it but you91裸聊视频檙e feeling it,91裸聊视频� Kyle said.
The gaming centre hasn91裸聊视频檛 been open for long, but lots of people have already come by to check it out.
Kyle said you can book for an hour at $40 per person. They keep groupings small to ensure no one has to wait around.
91裸聊视频淲e brought in technology that is very complex from overseas to Kelowna. It91裸聊视频檚 the first time it91裸聊视频檚 ever been done in North America, but we really wanted to bring it to Kelowna first so we could give back to our community and give our community something to do now.91裸聊视频�
The simulations are ever changing because different visuals and scenarios can be programmed into the various machines, meaning there is always something new to try.
91裸聊视频淲e have rollercoasters, F-1 racecars, jetpacks, war machines, anything you can really think of we have it. My favourite would be the 360 spinner in the back that will flip you upsidedown like a washing machine,91裸聊视频� Kyle said.
The brothers are excited to finally be open and have customers eager to try out the different machines. They said if all goes well Virtual Rcades could become a franchise in the future.
91裸聊视频淚 believe this is the future of entertainment. You can91裸聊视频檛 go much further, because now you91裸聊视频檙e fully immersed in the action. You91裸聊视频檙e not just seeing it, you91裸聊视频檙e feeling it - you91裸聊视频檙e flying like a bird, you91裸聊视频檙e riding on a hot air balloon, you91裸聊视频檙e riding on a rollercoaster, but you91裸聊视频檙e never leaving your space.91裸聊视频�
