Remember the "power brick" addon psvr also needs to run on ps4.. that could be 199$ just for that..
If Sony can do 399$ for the basic bundle.. I think they will take a huge hit.. And I dont seeing them doing that.. not when 10 other companys will release (proberlly better) VR producs in 2017)
499$ for the basic model.. And 549-599$ for all needed hardware (whit out a ps4)

That addon is like a $15-30 device that simply duplicates the frames and applies the fish eye. It seriously is nothing that fancy...
If Sony launches at 499 they will lose the VR war instantly. Occulus Rift is $599 and includes the device, an xb1 controller, a camera, a motion controller, and a game --- and you can use it for PORN.
Many people like myself are in this boat:
$299 device only - Willing to preorder without hesitation.
$349 device only - Likely to preorder
$399 device only - Reluctant to buy
$449 device only - Unlikely to buy
$499 device only - Not going to buy at all
Throw in the camera, 1 or 2 wands, and possibly the navigation controller for $75-125 upgrade and its essentially the same deal for those without the addons already.

Ok.. dident know that.. if its only very cheap addon (i thought it had power and "fancy stuff" too) I can see them (best case senario) do it for 349$
And i'm not trying to take anything away from VR.. I know it will change the world.. and I know the "masses" will get "in".. much faster than most expect.. And I expect +50 mill. who use VR (lets say more than 3 times a week) in januar 2017.. (And +100 mill who use it for concert.. movies.. "funapps" and other VR experinces regulary)
Just so I dont sound like hater.. I will also say that when it comes to gaming (in 2016) PSVR will likely be the best option (and I cant wait until my brother get it) So its not like i'm trying to take anything away from Sony.. (I have waitet 25 years for this)
