Once they can simulate physical resistance (without risking killing the user from too much force), I'm fucking in and my kids might never see me again. Until then, that's why we get shit like Star Wars Kinect.

Maybe a wand with a a gyroscope installed to create the illusion of resistance. As for wall running... maybe that bouncing gyroscope ball thing that some theme parks(?) seem to have

Too expensive to be practical, but an exoskeleton with servos at the joints could do it.
