Here’s how much real-world money it’ll cost you to play in Sony’s virtual video game domain.
The electronics giant recently showed off a prototype device that can project an interactive, smartphone-like display onto any surface.
Sony announced on Tuesday that after four decades, it will stop shipping Betamax (or Beta) and MicroMV video cassette tapes next March.
