Nintendo President Of America Says Current VR Tech Isn’t Fun


VR will play a big part in the future of gaming as we see with Microsofts HoloLens and Sony’s Project Morpheus. But the third console, Nintendo, doesn't have a VR headset, so whats there opinion on VR ? In an interview with Polygon, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime says the current state of virtual reality is "not fun" or social, two requirements that need to be met before Nintendo gets onboard. "We have knowledge of the technical space, and we've been experimenting with this for a long, long time," Fils-Aime said. "What we believe is that, in order for this technology to move forward, you need to make it fun and you need to make it social." "I haven't walked the floor, so I can't say in terms of what's on the floor today, but at least based on what I've seen to date, it's not fun, and it's not social. It's just tech." Could this be just a cover up of the fact that a VR headset couldn’t run on the Wii U ? Don’t get me wrong I love my Wii U, But that doesn’t change that fact thats its under powered compared to its competitors.
