Then you see the price and go...

And then there are 11 million people buying iPhones on day one that cost twice as much.
Not saying it's going to be big, just that price is a mere small hindrance when you do your marketing right.

Yup. You've hit the nail on the head there mate. If Oculus do their marketing right then VR gaming is going to be HUUUUUGE. Let's not forget that Oculus Rift has the marketing power of Facebook behind it as well as the financial power of Facebook too. All it needs is a decent marketing campaign and big demo stations regularly placed in Shopping Malls and supermarkets around the world (because VR is something that needs to be experienced for it to sell).
I'm jumping into VR gaming as soon as I possibly can. Am building a Beast of a PC next month (i7 6700K, Maximus VIII Ranger motherboard, 16GB of DDR4), will be using the iGPU until I can get a Radeon R9 Fury X in May next year and then buying Oculus Rift in November next year.
This is a VERY exciting time for me personally, I've been dreaming of VR gaming before most gamers have been born lol.
