Oh, nice! Please let me know when you get somewhere with that, sounds promising.

For instance, the Last Story will draw a 3d scene, then it needs to do something so it draws over that scene in a small corner in the upper left. WHOOPS. So it then draws on top of that portion of the screen with just the portion that was missing. It does this by drawing a 2d segment.
Ahh, I love game development

That is a great idea. I remember Minecraft for Gear VR did something really cool with that concept:
And I think this is what VorpX does with its "Edge Peek" system, too - let you switch from being "inside" the game to viewing the game on a big flat screen.
