So while the Wii did not influence modern VR is how it works, it did pave the way in having a lot of hardware already out there for PSVR. For how it works, the influence was actually negative as a starting from scratch solution would have led to better tracking instead of re-using move. But for sales, definitely positive. A headset that required $600 to start would not have sold as many as PSVR has. Wii showed, cheap tech can have great success. |
Yeah, it was clever business decision, but after trying Arizona Sunshine on PSVR and then on Vive...oh boy, I'm not sure I would ever want to play PSVR again.
