OCULUS Touch Controllers 199 euro! Release 21-11-16 Turned up in German Media Markt webshop

Media Markt in Germany announced the price and release date for the
Oculus Touch controllers! The price will be 199 euro's and the release date
appear to be November 21 2016. Furthermore, the specs of the controllers are
shown. They are 114.3 mm wide and 96.5 mm high and the depth is 104.1 mm.
The controllers weight just 127.6 g. We don't see anything about a second
sensor. The most striking is that no sensor is mentioned anywhere. Is the sensor still included?

$300 ouch...seems a bit high, but probably not bad if you include retail markup.


199 Euro would be $224

I'd go as far as to say the price would be <200$, since the Oculus Rift costs 700€ vs 600$. Sure there's an additional tax in the US but it's still way cheaper than in Europe.

euro price tags always include tax which is around 20%. so <200$ seems more likely

Well that is nearly $300 Aussie !  :s   I thought $200 would have been a fair enough price - that price is depressing - but maybe they bundle a game or 2 with it, that would make it reasonable.

Nice find.

Keep in mind that 19% sales tax are already included in that price.

Keeping CV1 + Touch bellow the price of HTC Vive + wands was always an objective.

I hope Oculus VR didn't achieve that objective by making Touch work 180° without requiring a second webcam...

Every bit of official information from Oculus has stated 2 cameras for touch and touch will include the 2nd camera, even the box's we have seen from developers showing them off show the camera in the box with Touch.
If they were going to sell Touch without the camera that info would have been released by now to the public.

Converted to the wrong dollars, yes.

it had better not be $300 for the controllers.
