VR is the same as any other gaming market.

It is a two sided market, with a chicken and egg problem.

Gamemakers don't want to invest in a market with very few consumers, and consumers don't want to invest in a headset with very few games.

Which is why console makers need to make a few blockbuster games to encourage adoption.

The Nintendo Entertainment System came with Super Mario Brothers and Duck Hunt at no additional cost. Sega made the Genesis and Sonic the Hedgehog.
