This is exciting work. I guess it makes sense for the fact that Oculus have a parts shortage causing delays, while the vive seems to ship.

It would be a shame if most games would stay exclusive to one or the other.




> parts shortage causing delays, while the vive seems to ship

I tried adding a Vive to cart and they gave me a June shipping date, same as my Oculus preorder.


Current estimated ship date for a new Vive order is "around June". Current estimated ship date for a new Oculus Rift orders is August.


So youre comparing placing a vive order on April 14th to making a pre-order months ago for a Rift?

Ordering a Rift today means an August ship date. These two situations aren't remotely comparable.


Wish my Vive would ship. I backed the original Kickstarter for Oculus, and I got my free Rift a couple weeks ago. I ordered my Vive an hour or two after preorders started and it still hasn't shipped. And the only date I have for it to ship is "April".
