I think the first successful VR you'll see will be closer to an arcade machine than a home console.

- stcredzero 14y ago> I think the first successful VR you'll see will be closer to an arcade machine than a home console. I was just thinking about this. My development rig has 2 27" screens. If I added a 3rd one, this would cover most of my field of view horizontally. What if someone sold a console rig packaged with 3 screen and a mount? (Work with IKEA to produce a compatible cheap desk.) This kind of thing is already done and is awesome for vehicular games. (Racing, tank, aircraft...) A 3 screen rig also could still strike a kid as "awesome," so would draw money from the wallets of parents. Or, for arcade-type settings, how about a seat with a projected 360 dome, HOTAS controls, and motion simulation?
- untog 14y agoAgreed. But that's at odds with the OPs assertion that " head-mounted-display virtual reality is a huge missed opportunity for next-gen consoles."
