We have less than a year to go before Back to the Future II’s hoverboard prediction is debunked. But thanks to virtual reality, we might be able to simulate the feeling of riding a hoverboard. Game developer Kieran Lord aka Cratesmith recently showed off an early build of his hoverboard simulator for the Oculus Rift.

Kieran is making the game using the popular Unity game engine. He’s using a Wii Balance Board to control his game.

If you have an Oculus Rift, a Wii Balance Board and a Mac, you’re in luck: Kieran shared an early build of his game through Dropbox. You can find out more about the game on Kieran’s Reddit thread.

In the 1989 movie Back to the Future Part II, the food of 2015 looks incredibly familiar — it’s just prepared a bit differently. Toss a miniature Pizza Hut pizza onto a pan, stick it into your Black & Decker Hydrator, tell the machine how you want it cooked, and three seconds later your pizza is ready. The appliance even slices it for you.

Back To The Future happens to be a movie franchise that has its fair share of fans over the years, and one of the most iconic and enduring images from the movie would be the DeLorean, a car that functions as a time machine if all of the other factors happen to be correct. Well, you might not be able to indulge in a little bit of time travel on your own since it is physically impossible to do so at this point in time, but you can turn back the clock in your own mind with the $64.99 Back To The Future Mark I DeLorean Time Machine.

This happens to be an awesome 1:15 scale model of the Back to the Future DeLorean, where it will bring you to a trip down memory lane, and in essence, travel back through time with your mind, of course. It will be an extremely detailed replica that would boast of intricately designed lighting and sound effects so that the entire “ride” looks a whole lot more impressive than normal. Needless to say, when the batteries run out, you might want to look into the matter, lest the memories of your teen years also die with it.
