My theory is that its for the same reason 3d TV's never took hold. They don't want to sink their own money into equipment but they might go see a 3d movie or play a VR like game in an arcade. It feels gimmicky. It feels weird to put on something covering your eyes when you just want to sit and relax. We don't need that much immersion to get a feel for whatever fictional escape it is (3d movie, VR game). There may be commercial applications for it though.
