I wonder why they call it the Consumer Version in stead of the Enthousiast Premium Version. That would have saved a lot of confusion imho.

If they would have sold it for $200 you would have people buying Rifts to run on their 2009 macbook and getting pissed at how terrible the experience is and screaming that VR isn't ready yet. It would also be a much lower quality device.
That's the worst excuse ever.
I happen to have a pwerfull pc.... check my Sig.... I can afford to buy it... I'm 41 I have credit cards!
But I won't buy it at a rip off price... they are literally ripping you off.. Blatantly and in your face!
I mean don't you remember the PS3 Fiasco??
Oculus is a Peripheral... it on it's own does nothing.... It should have been no more than $399 Period!

Getting the price down to $200 would severely lower the quality of the device, and yes in that price range people would buy it to use on crap hardware, have a terrible experience and proclaim the second coming of VR to be a failure.
Wait till the Vive and PSVR are out, then you can decide which company is ripping you off the most. Without actually trying any of these devices it is hard to say if they are really ripping anyone off or not.

I don't believe OVR is ripping us off. They probably loose money on every unit sold. It's just that most people had not expected this price. I think they could have handled expectations better, reading the reactions on the internet prooves my point I think.
