I get your point, but these numbers are simply not true.

The iPhone launched June 29 and sold 0.27m in the first two days and 1.12m in Q3 2007 although it was only available in the US and with a bad AT&T contract in that time. Add the 2.32m of Q4 2007 + 1.70m of Q1 2008 + 0.72m of Q2 2008 and we are at over 6 million iPhones within 1 year + 2 days.

Then you're completely different than me. Video games have gotten stale lately for the most part. Always the same. Had gotten bored after 3,5 decades. Not anymore!

To be frank VR is my childhood dream coming true.

No. I could see them release an untethered PSVR sold alongside the regular PS5 that has the ability to runs its own apps and games without a PS5 (though even that is somewhat unlikely, but much more likely than a PS5 that is a VR-only console).

really? maybe my numbers are off, havnt researched again. But nontheless, apple is currently selling more iphones per months, maybe even per week as they have sold back in the days.  Similar stuff happened to the apple wach if I remember right which actually outsold the PS4 in 2017 but had a slow start in 2015.

So first years sales of a new product are certainly not show anything about their long term success. Especially if those stuff is brand new technology, mass market wont just buy it right away.

There are some VR games that actually work just like that (cockpit games, games where you sit). Some people also enjoy games like Skyrim to be played sitting with a controller, but I definitly dont^^

Im completly with the other guy btw. Normal gaming actually got me bored over time because especially in the past 10 years, there were really little changed and the games feel more and more similar. I played Games like Witcher 3, Zelda BOTW, Battlefront, Mario Odyssey and it just got so repetitive in my expierence. I have done all that already. 

Just tried ti get into Deus EX scicne its currently free on PS+ and it wasnt enjobyable a single bit for me (especially the aiming with the analog sticks oa awfullc compared to a VR Gun). 

But I do understand people are different and you may have other opinions about that ;)

Don't think the question needs answering does it.... VR is just a small piece of the pie and though its great, is still too much hassle to setup/get running. Maybe PS10 would be a combined console in a headset... but not for now.

After XB trying to force consumers to pay $100 more XB1 with Kinect, and having PS offer just the console for $100 less, with the camera being a separate option to purchase, led to XB paying for it dearly. XB1S and XB1X have not only steered clear of Kinect and VR, but have made sure that anything that is added to the console is tried and true and comes at no extra price. They added 4k BD, yet they kept the cost of the XB1S the same if not less than the PS4. The XB Elite controller, not bundled standard, is a completely separate purchase because of this.

PS understands this, and has experienced it themselves with PS3. Putting too much hardware into one package and expecting consumers to pay for it, just doesn't work unless it's heavily subsidized and matches or beats the competitors price. By offering consumers the choice, it allows for more customers overall in the long term. PS5 won't be much different than PS4 in terms of what you get in the base package, other than potentially having some of the VR hardware built in, maybe. They will again offer you as much performance as possible, for a reasonable and affordable price.

The market has always, always favored cheaper consoles. Why is this news for you?

If you agree that the market doesn't seem VR ready, why would Sony ship the PS5 with VR headsets?

It will take longer than that, but yeah if they work out VR it will not be just games, people will live there, work there, etc.

I'm not putting words in your mouth. You're treating the PSVR as if its much more popular than it actually is.

Which numbers am I exaggerating?
