Nintendo Fan Reviews VR (Meta Quest 2). Is it the future?

VR is more like the N64 or PS1 that feeling of playing 3D games for the first time, mixed in a with a bit of the Wii.

It can be a mind blowing experience, but no one has properly I think put together everything in a package that is appealling and affordable. Apple's headset is on the luxury end of the luxury electronics market.

I think the Meta guys are on the right track though, they just need to keep iterating and improving upon what they have.

Yeah, Quest 2 was exactly that thing (those 20 millions Quest 2 sold are testament to that) - technically good enough, not too expensive, both standalone and able to act as PCVR, with enough good games in its store. At first I was extremely skeptical about inside-out tracking, coming form VRs that all had base stations for tracking, but once I got it for my kids few years ago, all my worries went away - it is really good headset, and once you go no-cable in VR, it is really difficult to get back to wired headsets.

They messed up somewhat with Quest 3, not enough of an improvement over 2, but hopefully they've learned their lesson for the next one.
