Oh boy... some people just can't get the message. Let me put it like this: The PS Vita and the Wii U are more popular than PS VR. VR as a contraption in your head will NEVER work. VR may have potencial with hologram projectors, but spare me the screen on my face. We are very far from any VR takeover until those projectors can be made affordable.

We’ll see what comes down the pipeline, but I played Oculus for the first time a couple of weeks ago and minus the cords and double the resolution and that will be the future of gaming. That is the next landscape in video games.  I am almost certain that PS5 will be a primary VR system with “optional” TV output. As displays get lighter and conforming and wireless image streaming allows for lighter headsets we may end up with a very minimal setup as easy to slide on as a pair of glasses. The assumption that consoles are ending is an assumption that the existing format of games will remain consistent and has reached a limit. That just isn’t the case with VR coming into its adolescence. 

 

That sounds as inovative as the kinect bundle. Can't wait for the future!
