If you’ve been looking for a way to get the family moving without the hassle of controllers or expensive gaming consoles, the Oura Ringo active gaming system just popped up at Costco and it’s worth a look.
This is basically a plug-and-play motion gaming system that connects to any TV and tracks your movements without you having to hold anything. With over 50 active games included, it uses camera-based motion tracking technology similar to what you’d find in higher-end systems, but promises a much simpler setup process.
The no-controller aspect is genuinely appealing for families with younger kids or anyone tired of keeping track of remotes and charging batteries. That said, the price point puts this in “think it over” territory rather than impulse buy range, especially since you’ll want to make sure your household will actually use it regularly to justify the investment.
Key Features:
- Item #: 1749471
- Current Price: $349.99
- 50+ active games included with the system
- No controllers needed – uses motion-tracking camera technology
- Easy setup that works with any TV
- Hands-free gameplay for all ages
- Multiple game categories for different activity levels and interests
The Bottom Line: The Oura Ringo could be a solid investment for families looking to add more active entertainment options at home, especially during those hot summer months when you’re looking for indoor activities. Just make sure you’ve got enough space in front of your TV for movement, and consider whether your household will use it enough to make it worth the cost compared to other fitness or entertainment options.
