    it’s 1995, I can’t afford a virtual boy, but the tech is just around the corner

    it’s 2012, I can’t afford the Oculus Rift, but the tech is just around the corner

      Quest is good and cheap. You can Sideload apps, run Steam VR and never touch a Meta app.

      Doing this actually hurts Meta because it’s assumed Meta underprices the hardware and makes up the difference in software like other consoles. It’s win-win.
