Oculus GO sales numbers? (UPDATE)

So I have been keeping an eye on Oculus App Android downloads numbers, A week after launch it was at 10,000 now it's at 50,000 plus (this is not counting ios devices, damn you apple) .. I'm not saying that this is indicative of anything but nice to see it growing, esp that it has been out for only 2 and a half weeks and seems to be gaining buzz. (Not to mention increased number of new members on this forum, although I would not have expected huge numbers as Mainstreamers don't tend to hang in forums heh) Will be interesting to see numbers grow when the GO gets released in countries outside of the US (yes it's available at oculus.com) but it is nowhere to be found at other retailers, online or otherwise.

It depends if there is competition at christmas. I actually think 50k is a bit low? Normally release day is a peak as there is a backlog of customers waiting to buy it. Early days but I think it looks similar to cv1 sales not really the everyman product it was hoping to be.  

True, but I think that applies to games more than this tho, it's a completely new product category for the mainstream and in this instance, like with the first iphone it will be organic growth, rather than a day 1 hit.

maybe not, if they could maybe down scale for games but use high res screen for watching videos.

And what processor is going to do that on an Oculus GO? Where also talking about 2 screens not just one.

Those numbers would be far greater if they made it available to Canadian customers on a more widespread sales model. Amazon canada says that Oculus will not let them sell it but America Amazon can. The ONLY way to get it is theough Oculus themselves in Canada. 

That’s pure BS sales tactics right there.

Oculus deliver to Canada faster than Amazon and probably charge less (tax is included in the Oculus price, but not at Amazon).

Amazon Canada delivers next day. Oculus does this as well?

Not unless you pay extra for shipping, it doesn't. At least, not unless you happen to live right next-door to an Amazon warehouse.

Usually more like a week for free shipping to me.
