> played for keeps making deals with game developers to publish their games on their store

I know rooms full of games industry business people that would die laughing at this suggestion. It's in the same league as talking about third party support on the Wii U.

It's not great but when compared to the effort Sony put into the PS VR2, Meta's effort to support their Quest devices seems herculean.

Sony has never lied to itself that VR is a gateway to the metaverse. It tapped the TAM of VR gaming and saw it was small, not worth their attention. Rational actor compared to Zuck whose only goal is to dominate a future he is attempting to will into existence (which nobody wants).
