They don't make expensive hardware, so your habits of forming comparisons to SEGA and Sony can't be meaningful. Also, Nintendo aren't short on money in the slightest.
I don't know anyone with a WiiU (or an Xbox1 or PS4) - but I am a social reject with a circle of friends as big as Phil Spencer's Playstation game library.
I think it's ridiculous that you still can't select a vehicle - you can only select a character. Also I think the items need to be substantial.
True... even Sonic Riders, a game that wasn't as well received (I liked the first game though), did that.
It's got to have selectable karts/vehicles - it changes the game so much to have a drive and a kart and it doesn't require much more effort on behalf of the development.
@so_hai: VR doesn't need to "solve" anything. It is its own medium, and your post makes me suspect you've yet to try it, as many others in here do as well. VR literally changes the way you play. Your movements and play area you walk around in become the controller (at least in room scale with the Vive), and intuitiveness and immersion are the keys.
I feel sorry for people who write this tech off or desire its failure. Probably some because they cannot afford it, or lack the room or PC to run it. Others, because they're myopic fools. Really, it couldn't be more different from traditional gaming as we've known it.
Fine, if the technology doesn't answer any real-world demand then I don't expect you to complain if it isn't being adopted. Also, all you did was re-explain how it works, not why it's desirable.
