It may create demand for the hardware, but it will diminish demand by developers to make apps for it, knowing the audience will be small. And Apple has an ecosystem to bootstrap here. If they fail, the whole platform will die.

I'll be curious how they navigate the difficulties of getting this category to self-sustainability.

It’s good, however, it’ll be able to run macOS and iOS apps on virtual flat panels.

I haven’t looked into the SDK and what it offers, but I read it’s not full room immersive as some gaming sets are.
