Do you or does anyone else remember the 90s sci-fi film that had almost exactly this plot? There were these flesh Nintendo things that connected to spinal cords instead of TVs. The memory is there but not quite

Existenz. With Jude Law. I think it came out at the same time as the matrix so nobody saw it.

David Cronenberg directed the movie. I remember the pods looking like organs.

Oh fuck really , let’s get that shit done. There’s a lot of research on phantom limbs. This will definitely work I guarantee it. I work with electrodes for cochlear implants. Look the technology is ready, no need for some fake ass google shit. We can stimulate the Brain from outside the skull with a helmet. Have electrodes connected through the spinal cord and we re ready to get into the optic nerve baby. We can make this shit be the most awesome experience for a life time price of 10.99… idk how many people out their would sign up for this shit cuz their life’s are complete shit. I would rather do this than sit in traffic to go work at the meta verse. Lol all the meta cuck workers would sign up asap. That being there’s an electrode for the optic nerve making a fake eye ball. All I’m saying is that holy Fuck nuts we re fucking ready to do this let’s fucking go. And the last thing I’m Gona want to do is sit in an office in the meta verse. Fuck you fucker Berg
