Palmer Luckey

And actually, if you look at my Twitter bio, even today, I listed as the founder of ModRetro, Oculus, and Anduril.

Working on projects in that forum was actually what gave me this mindset originally, where we were very much looking at what these old consoles were, how they worked, what they had done, and then speculating what modern technology would they be using today to solve the problem if it had been accessible to them.

is usually quite clear.

And so taking old ideas and combining them with the latest implementations of modern components, Nintendo has done that very successfully.

They waited until motion tracking got just good enough and were able to use pretty limited compute and pretty basic ideas to do things that, of course, have been talked about for many years.

But Nintendo, they were like right on that edge, right as MEMS-based motion controls and image sensors that were appropriate became possible.

They immediately turned that into something new.

that was a lot better than the sum of its parts.

That's going to be a self-serving answer, right?

Not often.

Peter's obviously is out of the box as it gets.

I don't know if you know, Founders Fund was the first institutional investor in Oculus.

So there was a time when nobody believed Oculus could succeed because there had never been a successful VR company in history.

And so that was pretty unconventional belief.

Not only that my company would succeed, but that in doing so, it would become the first company to ever succeed in an industry littered with corpses.

That's pretty out of the box.

I'd also say there's a lot of people who, when you say who's the most out-of-the-box thinker, I mean, there's Jaron Lanier.

He basically invented the term virtual reality.

And he's the epitome of out-of-the-box.

But I also think that he has a different perspective on the world that doesn't necessarily align with my own.
