Put all this together and there could be a Blue Ocean which Nintendo (or someone else) might open. Let’s call it “social AR/VR games”:
Low-cost dedicated video-game console (i.e., spec equal to or lower than PS4/Xbox One) optimized for AR/VR with high-quality positional tracking for immersion
Low-cost VR, AR or mixed-reality head-mounted displays to enable social gameplay. These could either be dedicated HMDs or smartphone HMD holders similar to Samsung GearVR/Google Cardboard.
“Non-gamer”-friendly dedicated wireless controllers to address the mass market
Integrated hardware/software platform for consistent performance
Multiple high-quality (and fun) bundled games at launch
Dedicated SDK for third-party game developers.
This looks a bit like the original Wii strategy applied to the AR/VR market in the context of smartphones, and could enable Nintendo to leverage its IP to again “disrupt an entire industry, and in a good way.”
