They couldn't really do anything else. Releasing mainstream consumer goods for affordable prices is what they do.  They did the best they could for a specific prise range they had in mind from the start. I doubt a high price was ever even an option for them.

Saying "Sony did things right" suggests that Oculus and Valve did something wrong, which I don't think is the case.

If they want to lead the market they did things wrong.  If they're happy with niche produces in terms of sales they did it right.  

 

Psvr will get the best AA and AAA support thanks to its dominant market position which is what they want and as a consumer what I want.

What I want as a consumer is flexibility. A thing I will not get with Sony's version. I will be at their mercy which games will be released and which won't. We all know what happens with Sony's support when the success of a product is less than expected. While with PCVR I have the guarantee of a steady stream of VR apps. Maybe not always the AAA variant but at least something. Not to mention VR mods for non-VR games.

I also think that PSVR would have never happened if Oculus didn't start the hype with their Kickstarter.
