You are aware that PSVR has already sold about 5x as much as the Magnavox Odyssey in its entire lifetime (first home console with Pong). While even after inflation PSVR + base PS4 is still significantly more expensive than the Magnavox Odyssey was...

AR is not very suited for gaming, but as a mobile phone add-on, sure.

Pong had more of an impact on the industry then VR has, that much is for sure and that is my point. The gaming industry is vastly larger than it was back then.

 

With this said I do not think it is even fair to compare VR to Pong as Pong was the very beginning of video games and VR is well past the "very beginning" companies have been doing it in one way or another for quite a while.
