New reports claim that Sony will miss its ambitious PlayStation VR 2 sales goal by a significant margin.
Sony's new PlayStation VR 2 is reportedly off to a slow start since it launched on February 22, and it's estimated that Sony will miss its sales goal by a massive margin. According to estimates from the research firm IDC (via Bloomberg),

Sony is expected to sell around 270,000 units by the end of March. Bloomberg had previously claimed that Sony was aiming to ship 2 million PlayStation VR2 units during the headsets launch quarter, according to "people familiar" with the company's deliberations.

It's no surpriss really. You have an amazing headset half the price that doesn't have to be tethered to a PS5. It has built in audio so no wires literally needed. It can also be used for PC VR.

That sucks. I want it to take off because I like VR on PC. If it sells well on console I'm sure more games will make their way to both areas. But man is it gonna be a tough sell.

Is the Bloomberg journalist reporting on this Mochizuki by any chance? The same one who has been disproven by companies about a dozen times? He basically came up with a sales figure of 2 million were expecting to be sold - which is absurd for VR sales - and was called out by Sony. The only credible person they have is Schreier.

Also, early sales figures make it seem as though it's outpacing PSVR1 compared to its sales in the first couple of months.

Maybe if they didn't take away all the anime tiddie games it could've been used for, people would've bought it for that.

Its because the target market already bought the expensive PSVR 1, and a good portion of them, like myself, found out they just didn't sit down and play it a lot, and also that it gave them motion sickness.
