While people are starting to worry about the idea of virtual reality technology someday taking over amusement parks. The first step is actually happening now in Odaiba, Tokyo. One of the top listed sightseeing areas where the Gundam statue holds its stand in the center. If you need a breather from the busy city of Tokyo, it is the closest area where you can play beach volleyball, head for an Edo-style onsen, or just simply chill with the breathtaking wide-open ocean view.
The place offers plenty of fun activities and exhibitions. And now, they just announced the opening of a new section called VR Zone: Project i Can, where players can hop-in there to feel a different level of real world entertaining experience that they've never challenged before.
