When I said mainstream, I meant it was something the mass consumer wants and buys. That simply isn't true for 3D gaming or otherwise, but obviously I'm referring to the topic of gaming.
Same with VR. Nintendo did say they were working on it. But that is just R&D. I'm sure they are working on many different techs and ideas. But that doesn't mean even half will see the light of day. How many have has Nintendo shown at E3 that were never launched? It happens.
VR had shown that just like 3D, no one actually will buy it. It's not something a mass consumer will buy.
Also it has nothing to do with accepting new tech. It's simply doesn't provide the benefit to overcome any extra cost. Cost could be money or user experience (i.e. wearing gear).
