Scorpio's power is irrelevant, Neo is where it counts. Here's why...

They would have a very small marketshare if they done it.

Yeah, I imagine it would be. I figure PSVR would be fine on the standard PS4, though it'll likely be more ideal on the Neo.

I don't think that you will need to purchase the Neo to have a decent experience with VR, Sony is letting people test VR with the normal PS4, if VR was so bad on the normal PS4 people would talk about it.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Unless they were secretly using Neos to demo VR, it looks like it runs fine. VR will likely be fine without Neo.

No they wouldn't. They make one version of the game, which is a lead platform, typically the PC, then they scale it downwards for less powerfull platforms like the Playstation 4 and Xbox One.

Neo and Scorpio, will take advantage of higher graphics that have already been made for the PC version.

Pretty much every Frostbite powered game is Medium/high equivalent PC settings at 720P/900P on console, there is a pretty big graphics difference when compared to a PC's full 1080P, 60fps, ultra settings.

There are a few limitation's to Sony's approach to VR, that makes it less than ideal.
For starters it's resolution is low, it's not much of a problem on a TV watching it from several meters away, but these things will only be a few inches away from the eyes.
It's framerate is also only 60fps, they will then create a fake frame between every real frame to fake 120fps (They are advertising this as "Reprojection". - It's similar to the "motion" tech in many TV's, it comes with some other caveats too, It's simply inferior to a native 90fps solution or even 120fps.

Neo in theory could completely solve those issues.

Yeah, I figure VR will run better on the Neo, but hopefully it runs fine on just standard hardware.

Considering most people capability to tell the difference and the novelty of PSVR I guess people will find PSVR on PS4 fine enough at the start, but PS4Neo will be were it will be better... but of course we will probably take another 2 gen to have really great VR.
