And then move upwards from there. Yeah that was my idea, is start with really basic functionality: like having it play one of six different built-in sounds depending on your gesture.

I've seen the one man band version, I can picture it. I believe u r right, the tech exists and it is doable. Only missing holographic 3d equipment to produce birds out of sleeves and rabbits out of hats into thin air. I can suggest that, since the suit needs different functions, you could create an armband, or a glove, hat, or whatever with these features, to start it with a smaller goal, and then could piece it up to anyone willing to work on a part of the suit (codpiece, anyone?) sounds cool.

Maybe a bunch of different people should try it, document their efforts and pool their resources into some kind of mutually-beneficial financial enterprise. I could definitely see "early adopter" types eating this kind of product up - and it's good training wheels for teaching people how to use technology which must follow it.
