Neon's Top 5: Why VR Will Fail

[puggsoy]

Gors pretty much covered everything I'd want to say. However I also want to point out that, like any new technology, looking at it before it really becomes a commodity is a really bad way to rate it or gauge how successful it will be, especially from a consumer point of view. If anybody had suggested the idea of the internet in the 80s, nobody would have been able to fathom that it would become as integral to society as it is today. Conversely, as you mentioned, although the Virtual Boy might have seemed awesome when it was announced, it failed disastrously.

The only way to actually know how successful or unsuccessful something will be is to just wait and see, because there are so many factors that you can't account for.
