Emu VR is a game that gives you a virtual room that you can customize like crazy. You can play all your emulated games, watch movies, listen to music, etc. It even has multiplayer! Just recently they added support for user generated content (UGC), and the community has been adding tons of stuff. Even if you don't plan to play, their discord has tons of retro game content as the community is often hunting for old games and 80's/90's paraphernalia.

I've been slowly customizing my room, enjoying playing older games in a way that gives you that same feeling as back in the day. I noticed this community posts similar stuff and I think you guys would like the vibe. It's free and not too difficult to setup!

Oh that is genius. I doubt I would ever make much use of this myself (hell, I don't even own a VR headset), but I can 100% see the appeal, and the audience it's intended for.

VR games have generally been a very limited product in terms of their appeal (mostly because its almost impossible to solve the movement problem, and games mostly depend on movement), but I think VR does hold fascinating potential as a tool for long distance social interaction. The ability to give the feeling of sharing physical space to online interactions is something that only VR can really offer.
