Physical Pong

You can buy a real physical Atari pong table. It's sold as a coffee table but it has a real 8bit brick ball that goes back and fourth. 
At the time of writing this post the price was over £2,000 (£2,295.82 to be exact). That is quite expensive for a table. I guess it was built to last and it looks amazing. 

The uses magnets to drag a cube shaped ball back a fourth across the table to be deflectd by the paddles are a also real objects. It creates quite a nice effect. 

If I was loaded, I would buy one myself. 😍
