Want a coffee table that will “wow” your friends? … well how about the IRL Pong Table. It’s now available from Kickstarter with pledges ranging from USD $990 – $5,000.
Last year, a YouTube video showed off a physical version of the classic video game Pong. Players maneuvered a pair of paddles back and forth on each side of the table, while motors and magnets allowed the puck to bounce between each side like a souped up version of air hockey. The video garnered enough attention that its designers decided to sell the table through Kickstarter.
This isn’t a cheap Kickstarter: it’ll cost you over a grand to get one of these retro-style tables for yourself. The table comes in four different styles (PONG, black, brown, or white), and backers can add on a coin slot or Atari-branded seating cubes. For $5,000, backers can get their unit signed by Atari founder Nolan Bushnell (or a “campus pack” of five tables).
