I was hoping the 128 gb would be 50 dollars more but I guess that's life in the big city.

Oculus GO 32GB vs 64GB is a difference of $50 ... double that for Quest since it's 64GB vs 128GB ...

You are correct of course but I was still hoping. Oculus went for the money grab instead of giving us an SD card option. I always believed if you go more than half way you go all the way. 500 dollar cost for me. But I'll just kick and scream through the purchase.

Running apps from SD on Android is notoriously bad tho. For storing movies? Maybe ... but you can stream that if you need to from PC.

I am 50/50 - but agree - customers will try and pick a cheaper option for SD cards and that could result in games not functioning correctly and then getting the customer upset when its not anyone else fault xD I remember back in the day that happening soo much. Customers couldn't understand and didn't want to buy the higher speed options because of price. They just wanted more storage was their only thought, but when it didn't work for them - it was everyone else fault. Now, I think it be a good idea to maybe do some sort of cloud storage though - that be a cool option as far as saving states for a game. This way you can play whatever game you want - but still save your progress along the way.

But $500 may translate to something like €550 - 600, which would be quite expensive for many common users. Then Quest 128GB = PS4 + PSVR. I guess that opens up for quite a lot of new perspectives - and PSVR could be a great contender...

I think your a little confused. Playstation vr is wired vr so it's not a contender. It would be competitive amongst other wired headsets.

I'm not at all confused - and I'm pretty sure what my kids would choose if I asked them if we should get Quest or PSVR - but I'm not gonna do that 😉 Interesting how Quest 128GB will sell, if the price in Europe gets close to €600.
