I came across these two garment/gaming crossover devices recently. One was a special knitting attachment for a NES of all things, but I think it was unreleased. Also found a series of sewing machines that worked with GameBoy Color, if I remember correctly.

I think the market wasn’t ready for that then, but perhaps with devices like the Raspberry Pi, 3D printing, and the right software, a new loom boom could be reborn.
