Last night we had another great XR Tokyo meetup; with big thanks to our speaker @fewerwrong.org for sharing with us her really engaging and insightful dissection of the XR runtime.

Thank you also to everyone who attended. The community energy is really growing and it's an exciting time for XR.

I remember seeing the Hip Gear display at Toys R Us as a kid and thinking it was the COOLEST THING IN THE WORLD!

An LCD display mounted on your controller?!? That basically makes the PS2 into a handheld!

Hey #VR people, does anyone know of a replacement for the panorama feature of the Google camera app that used to be to create stereo panoramas? The latest update removed it

How does ROLLBACK NETCODE work, why is it so difficult to program, and why is it the gold standard for fighting games? A whirlwind tour of different solutions #pixelart #gamedev #AnimationVERSUS

The setup: you have a video game with couch co-op and want to add online multiplayer. Easy, right...?

I had the best time in Akiba this weekend catching up with my old friend from elementary school!

We went to the Wizardry pop-up event and museum, saw Steins;Gate 15th Anniversary merch pop-up, had the best Japanese curry of my life, and across from it, found the best store in Akiba for VR gear!

Tonight’s event has begun. It’s great turnout and speaker Nima Zeighami is in full swing giving us a great talk on the history and importance of Stereoscopic 3D in XR.

Gotta Drink ‘Em All!

At Cafe La Siesta, there are 12 special drinks called the Cocktail Monsters. When you order a drink named after a monster, you get a matching badge. You pin the badges on a matching Cocktail Monsters tote bag.

Across 6 months and 4 trips to Kyoto, I’ve finally drank them all!

Meta will recommend developers use the built-in OpenXR support of Unity & Unreal from next week.

The news comes after developers complained that Meta's integrations blocked other PC VR headsets:

I love Maren Mazesoba. I’ve been here more than anywhere else in Japan.

Mazesoba is a dish of lukewarm toppings on a bed of hot noodles covered in a delicious sauce instead of a broth.

And when you’re out of noodles, you toss rice into the sauce for a risotto-like dish.
