The portable pop-up gaming room is here

by John_A

Privacy. Sometimes we all crave a little. ‘Bocchi tent’: a 1.3 meter by 1.3 meter soft-cornered cube that makers Bibi Lab reckons offers the “ultimate gaming space”. With a slender gossamer wall between you and the rest of humanity, there’s a degree of sensorial blockage, but we could — obviously still hear the din of the Tokyo Game Show floors — headphones will be necessary if you’re looking to block out Other People. (The computer inside didn’t even have any games! What a waste.)

With all the space-age science of a popup tent, open up the storage pouch and the temporary gaming den makes itself – you’ll just have to add the furniture (and well, gaming hardware), yourself. The tent is set to retails for 5000 yen in Japan – and if you’re particularly taken with the idea of your own flatpack Internet Cafe, at least it should fit in your suitcase.
