I've come to the same conclusion: VR belongs in an arcade. The tough part is coming up with a game worthy of a VR arcade... Batman Beyond-style.

If you want to do arcade VR you'll need to solve the Pink Eye problem before I get anywhere near it.

There's a pink eye problem with HMDs? This is the first I've heard of it, but I suppose it makes sense.

Yep. A local company in OC is currently developing a VR headset condom that will solve the hygiene problem. Going to a bunch of meetups and trying out VR can get disgusting.
