Being honest and realistic, how many new Rift owners do you think the Summer Sale will have attracted once its over?

Well since Oculus does not seem to share numbers how will you know who gets closest?

Eleventybillion.


There is only one number in the universe that is eleventybillion, that is the number of threads asking when their Rift is shipping. Next week it will be twelvetybillion! This is 10 more than currently open support tickets.

Whatever the real number may be, we can all rest assured that the number is impressive enough to give the corporate leaders at HTC anal leakage.

At least we all love to think so baha :tongue:

Obviously we have seen some shipping issues.... ok... a lot of shipping issues. Do you think they tried at all to manufacture in bulk before the sale? cos I would have lol.

If you look at the Activity tab on these forums it shows between 400 -1000 new users every day so I am multiplying that by 30 days to get between 25,000 - 50,000. If the number was much more we'd see way more whine threads.  😄

I think it's safe to say that the majority of people who wanted a Rift already purchased one before now. Oculus are just moping up the stragglers at this point. imo.

I'm sure the number will get higher when all the vive owners have received their new rift and happily sold their vive 😉
A PC with lots of gadgets inside and a thing to see in 3D that you put on your head.
