And here is the problem with Peripherals that are not included with consoles. Youve seen it with Kinect 1, Move, Card reader thing for Gameboy, the origonal eyetoy, etc etc. It becomes a niche product and devs dont develop for them or have them in mind.

While VR sounds awesome on paper, and yes i would like to get VR myself, but at what price? If it becomes too steep this will surely become a product that most people will not get and if tha thappens most games wont support VR. Again, we can even use 3D as an example of last generation. Few games supported it because it was more of a niche product than anything.

With all that said im hoping either Oculus Rift of Sony makes it affordable so at least a high adopton rate gets attributed. Kinect 1 sold around 25 Million so i think the bar is to at least have a similar attach rate as Kinect 1 did.

Will it be a cool product?  Probably.  WIll it be a wildly successful product? imo Probably not.
