Hmm, on the fairly cheap compared to other high end controllers thing... that's fair if the value of the tech/ components + profits is around £200 and this is comparable with other high end controllers...
I think this is down to the deeper meaning of 'value' here then... these other comparible high end controllers... that justifies the £200... I assume there are many games out there you can use them with ? so you can get a lot of use out of them.
Would you spend £200 on a controller if there was literally zero games or uses... its a lot of money if it just sat there on your desk, doing nothing as there was nothing you could use it for at all.... would you buy one ?
No? how about 1 game... would you buy one? how about 2 games ?
This will vary for us all depending on the value we place on each game perhaps... but lets just say that 'somewhere' there is a 'number' of content that makes the purchase of a controller have value to you... Id say the more expensive the controller, the more content that's valuable to you is required before you can justify the cost.
I can afford £200, but don't want to spend £200 for something to sit on my desk un-used.
The 'value' of this to me is therefore in the content that comes out, that I can use it for.
So as I say - there is probably lots of games out there one could choose from, which might justify the £200 cost of these other comparable controllers...
Whether we can say the same about the TOUCH... remains to be seen... I like the idea of it.... but if no decent content... that's a £200 thing sitting on my desk I cant use therefore would feel it has no value.
ooh, and to @kernow and @Techy111 - Im too innocent to know what you are talking about with this 'other hand' 😛

have the final specs been released yet? (Guessing not, but no harm asking...) I really hope there's something similar to chaperone for you guys. You WILL need it!

You can't compare Touch to the Vive wands or PSVR wands. Touch gives you actual hands with positional and gestural tracking. Wands are just positional. It's like hands versus stubs.
People rave about the immersion provided by VR inputs even without gestural tracking. The Touch is on another level with its gestural tracking.

I hope the psvr is a massive success so it shakes up oculus and forces them to lower their prices to maintain their market share of vr.
With the Playstation pro set to up the visual detail, they're going to have to contend with a massive user base who have no interest in pc gaming. Developers will go where the money is.
