Cross-posting from the other PSVR thread as it is newsworthy.
Yoshida was interviewed by Digital Spy and has said that PlayStation VR will not be priced to make a profit, which gives me more confidence this will be priced quite nicely in my £199-£249.99 price bracket

After the concern about the technology's capability will be the question of how much will the thing cost. My conjecture is based from looking at the BOM of some smartphones and just guessing for additional costs, of course I could be way off the mark but Sony have impressed a lot of people this generation so I'm optimistic.
What are your thoughts, GAF?

PlayStation VR does feel the most 'living room-ready' of the competing headsets, with Oculus and Vive a bit more specialist. Do you think Sony's history in that space is its biggest advantage?
SY: "We are bringing a console mentality and also making developers test it fully before using their content. We tend to price hardware not to make money from it but to get as many install base so that content can be sold. This is the same kind of thinking in the way we are approaching PlayStation VR.
