Have you ever wondered or dreamed what it would be like to get really close to a
Whale, so you could look it in the eye? What about a Jellyfish? or a Stingray? and better
still, do it in your jeans and T-Shirt, without even getting wet!
What about having the thrill and excitement of driving in a supercar, around some of
the most famous race tracks, including Bathurst, or challenging your mates in the same
race while driving around Ruapuna? “Sounds good doesn’t it?” What if you could visit
anywhere in the world, including standing on top of Mt Everest! - still sounds good
does it not?
Well, I did just that last Saturday afternoon, right here in New Brighton at VIRTUAL
VISIONZ the new VIRTUAL REALITY LOUNGE. Being a softy, I chose the blue
option which gives you the wide-eyed, undersea experience. And what an experience it
was! I found myself standing on a ship wreck deep in the ocean, having a close
encounter with a whale!

If you want to know more, I suggest you visit VIRTUAL VISIONZ and accept the free
5 minute tutorial that will introduce you to the awesome world of Virtual Reality.
Believe me when I say this—just the Tutorial is worth the visit, I assure you that you
will want to experience more!
Russell and his team, Darian and Coral, will offer you a menu, yes I did say menu - that
has a full range of different Virtual Reality Experiences for ages 10 – no age limit. I fully
understand that most of us, especially kids, today have played Sony and XBox games—
but VIRTUAL VISIONZ offers a completely new dimension and experience to
gaming, be it educational for the young ones, a nature experience or some action for the
more mature and, with 60+ virtual experiences on offer, 5 Vive head sets in 5 rooms
and 4 Oculus Rift Car Simulator Machines you have to see it to believe it!
VIRTUAL VISIONZ have it all.

VIRTUAL VISIONZ have been fully operational in NB since March 17, so please give
them lots of support so they stay.
On Sunday afternoon, my wife and I returned—my wife is not a gamer at all and she
loved it!
Ok—I will admit I tried one of the manly action reality experiences and, as Arnie
would say….I’LL BE BACK - in our case it’s We’ll be back!
