I'm asking this question under the assumption that VR winds up being a lot of fun and not vommit-inducing. I got to thinking about what games could be fun if made with Virtual Reality in mind one day (as in not limited to those platforms that actually have VR coming at the moment, these don't need to have a chance in hell of actually happening)
Excitebike
I feel like this game might be perfect from a first person perspective with VR. Viewing the coming jumps through a headset while using the controller to accelerate and lean in a way that allows you to successfully land on the other side seems like a great introduction into VR, being both exciting but also technical and not overwhelming in terms of speed and such. I think I'd really enjoy this, especially with online racing. Obviously there's no way of knowing if Nintendo will ever get into the VR market, but I hope someone makes something similar.
Alien: Isolation
This game just seems like it'd be so terrifyingly fun through a VR headset... it's as if it was made for the thing. I hope they consider making something similar.
Dying Light
I'd prefer for the game to be a bit more expansive, but with that first person perspective, the parkour, the angry zombies everywhere etc... Lots of fun to be had there.
Pokemon Snap
I advocated for a Pokemon Snap game on the Wii U using the gamepad, and I'm going to do it now for VR lol. It seems like the headset would work perfectly with the controller for this one, with you looking around and moving your train/person with the joysticks, and when you see something just pressing some button that whips out the camera and photographs whatever you're looking at much like the zoom lens on guns in many other games. With what I'm seeing from Pokken Tournament and Zelda, Nintendo's visuals and experience with open worlds are certainly reaching the point that this game could look really good.
Punch-Out!!!/Fright Night
Mostly just curious about this one as boxing seems like it'd adapt better to VR than most other sports. Punch-Out was brought back and made a lot of fun on the Wii, and Fright Night had some great controls, so I think either has potential.
F-Zero
Really, this could be just about any racing game, but I'd love to see if F-Zero is even possible within VR... I suspect the visuals and speeds might be a tad overwhelming.
So those are mine atm, you guys have any? :)
