15 Reasons Why VR Gaming Is Setting Itself Up For Failure

Niche Or Not?

What happens when hardware developers begin to market their VR headsets to the masses? Gaming in general is already a niche market. Why would creating something that is heavy, expensive, takes high end PCs or consoles, be a smart idea at this moment in time? Simple answer: it wouldn’t be smart. An educated consumer never jumps in on a first version tech frenzy. An educated consumer waits and sees how the flow of the idea goes. Speaking in context of an “educated gamer” that would only leave a very small, less than niche consumer to purchase this hardware for at least the first year. These are scary times for VR.
