Open Nex Playground to Third-Party Developers

I think Nex Playground has the potential to become much more than primarily a children's gaming platform. I'd love to see Nex consider releasing a third-party SDK and creating an official app store/marketplace for independently developed games and applications.

Nex could maintain control over quality, security, and content through an approval process, while giving developers the tools to take advantage of the Playground's unique motion-tracking and camera capabilities.

I think this could benefit Nex in several ways. Third-party developers could create experiences that Nex doesn't have the resources to develop internally, including fitness, music, educational, party, and more "grown-up" applications. That could broaden the Playground's appeal well beyond its current primary audience.

More importantly, an app marketplace would create an additional revenue stream. Nex could take a percentage of sales from third-party applications while continuing to offer its existing subscription model. It could become a virtuous cycle: more developers → more applications → more reasons to own a Nex → more customers → more incentive for developers to participate.

The hardware is already interesting. Give developers the tools to see what they can do with it, and I think Nex might be surprised by what they come up with.
