Greetings

I've am very excited about the "revolution" that is the new device called Oculus Rift. It looks set to deliver to us exactly what the fan concept (hoax) video of the Nintendo Revolution made us wish we had (http://www.NintendoON.com/).

Now, I know Shigeru Miyamoto acted unimpressed when he tried the Oculus Rift, but really, the truth is that there would be nothing cooler that to see Nintendo make the ON a reality so as to compete against the Sony Morpheus.

With the commercial failure of the Wii U, it is time for Nintendo to step up into the true next generation of gaming. The true revolution, virtual reality!

I'm excited for some immersive Virtual Reality regardless of who gets it right first.

will require heavy specs (to future-proof)

I doubt any VR headsets are going to have a lifespan lasting longer than four years at most, so future-proofing them seems a bit pointless. The only 'heavy specs' required would be those to make it not totally suck upon release, those would be a baseline, not future-proofing for something that will probably be obsolete in a few short years.

Would be disappointing if you just got a terrible headache and went temporarily blind.

I hope this fad dies sooner rather than later so that we can move one already. I can't see this being much bigger than 3D was for gaming. It's just a novelty that will wear off rather quickly.
