Yes, because an introductory technology for kids is always a bad thing /S. Are you scared of how this will impact your adult, expensive technology kit or something?

Nobody is going to look at this and think a $2000 (PC + VR kit) VR experience is going to be equitable.  Or do you also think people would drive a crap car and think all cars are crap. Listen via cheap, crappy headphones and think all headphones are crappy. 

Cheap, entry level iterations of technologies do not in themselves make the overall technology look bad.

Cars and headphones (speaker tehcnology) went through decades of expenisve iterations and revision before cheap knock off came along and the original tech was in a position not to be threatened. VR does not have that luxury. 

VR is not going to live or die because Nintendo sold 100,000-150,000 Labo units. VR will die on its own merit of price,software and appeal.
