About this listen
From the SEGA Nomad to the Virtual Boy, gaming history is littered with devices that stumbled at launch but paved the way for the future. In this episode, we dive into the tech that was “half-baked but ahead of its time” - motion controls before Wii, VR before Oculus, cloud gaming before Stadia. We share stories of quirky peripherals, failed handhelds, and bold experiments from SEGA, Nintendo, and more. Sometimes failures, sometimes forgotten gems, these experiments helped shape how and where we play today.
