I was confused by this because it looks like he's using. It on a bunch of different systems. What system is it for?
I was actually interested in backing, so I read through the tiers. This is apparently a PC only product at present, so all of the titles he's been playing have been via emulation. Not a bad thing if you're into that sort of thing, but there are already LCD systems in place for PC/arcade use (via a sensor unit/bar that sits at a certain point on the monitor), so I'm not sure how much of an impact this is really going to make. The Kickstarter has already succeeded, so this will presumably be made and distributed, but other than shedding the need for a sensor unit/bar, I don't see how this is significantly different from what's already out there. (Link below for an example of one of the existing systems.)
