I don't really think the market will be convinced by VR honestly, and there's no way to tell which will do the best.

But perhaps i'll be surprised

Whatever's on consoles first.

Unless Sony royally fucks up the pricing.

hm.. many here would see $/€ 400 already as a "royal fuck up" in that regard I suppose (most seem to think PM should be around 200)

I think the bigger problem could be enticing software - I'm sure there will be many Minecraft VR clones (as Microsoft won't make that), the question is if any will become big enough to make people buy into VR.



Man, there's soo many VR machines being made... It's hard to tell which one will do the best.

Sometimes I get the feeling they will be as successful as 3D TV were, as in Tech Enthusiasts will love it, but the mass won't care as much. Could be wrong. Don't think it will be a flop, just not a big market.

I don't think any of those compagny expect big sales in short term



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

Yep, I can't understand why Samsung is making a VR machine though they have nothing to do with gaming.



I think it will be between Morphus and Oculus cause one is Sony and the other is Facebook/PC. Samsung VR is limited because the only way that it will work from what I hear is if you have a Galaxy Note 4 and nothing else... MS Hololens isn't really VR and I don't think the rest are as serious as Morphus and Oculus but I could be wrong.

I think Oculus will edge it out in the end cause if the theory goes that console gamers don't want to spend a lot of money of stuff, then I doubt that most console games would want a VR if say both Morphus and Oculus costs ~$300 cause that is a lot of money when u count in the costs of a ps4. Also, Morphus is  limited to the ps4 and nothing else from what I have heard so that means that it will be avaliable to less devices. But Oculus is not only available for more devices but PC gamers usually have less issues with price so I have heard. And the PC has porn and porn games so there is more incentive for that. Although, I doubt both will take off to a care worthy degree imo
