A HoloLens-powered Super Bowl party without nachos? Say it ain't so

A HoloLens-powered Super Bowl party without nachos? Say it ain't so

It's Super Bowl week, so that means a blizzard of material, some of it even connected to the game and much of that piggybacking a branding/advertising/marketing message – from chili recipes for your Super Bowl party, say, to more. As in Microsoft, releasing this video that begans with a simple question – what could the future of football look like? – and answers it with a vision of an augmented reality, Microsoft-powered party of the future joining two impossibly clean living rooms.

A HoloLens for everyone! Kids in the Hall-style Head Crushing! Wall-crashing holograms! (And notice how there's not a tablet in sight. Or a plate of nachos, for that matter. The tablets, well, that's understandable. Not sure I want to sign up for a future without nachos, though.)
