Movie Theater Gaming (FOLLOW UP)

Some of you may remember earlier this year when Trend Hunter featured some gamers playing Wii on a movie theater screen. Well, now it's a business. And the concept makes sense!

Wouldn't it be fun if you could play your video games on the big screen? Have a movie theatre where you can sit back and let the massive screen become your playing grounds?

Some Canadians thought so too, eh. TimePlay Entertainment lets you play a variety of games for $8 per half hour to play games with multiple players including bingo, trivia contests, Deal or No Deal and for the kids, SpongeBob SquarePants.
