Nice to see something VR related.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Convenient place for all the debuting stuff without watching the whole thing:
VR Games Showcase August 2025: Everything Announced – VR Games Showcase

There's tons of cool VR stuff almost daily with or without such shows. It's just not really covered even by VR outlets, never mind general gaming media. Like, just some stuff that dropped today-ish (ok I threw in the Tac Assault update trailer from a couple days ago too) before & after this showcase:

Nice, first I've seen of that Tokyo Walkabout Minigolf exapansion. I'll get it. I've played so much Walkabout Minigolf it' my most used VR game.

I added a handful of games to my wishlist to consider later when they're out. Not too many in genres I play.
What's lame is there was a flat2vr discount code that showed vracer hoverbike on the code page, but it doesn't actually work for that game . . .

They're truly doing this with a labor of love for the genre or unaware of statistics because VR is one of the worst selling genre for indies in general. Their time would be better financially used in almost every other indie genres. VR is a tough nut to crack.

As a fan of VR, I gotta say this -
It's dead, Jim.

As one of the few here that adores VR, it's a real fucking shame that we don't see more VR exclusive games. But I get it. It's super niche.
I really wanted Nintendo to enter the fray and be the first of the big 3 (2?) that ships VR with every game.
Until Nintendo, Sony or Xbox REQUIRES VR support, the medium is dead.

I am a closet furry. Don't you judge me.
Would be sick to see an Nintendo Virtual Boy 2 VR with modern hardware. Or a Halo VR from Xbox.

On some level this is true, largely when it comes to big flat studios and known IP, but on the other hand indies have stepped up and there are frequent quality releases in tons of different genres and styles, short or long form, more than one realistically can buy even, whether stand alone or PC/PS.
Shows like this are just the tip of the iceberg (and themselves have also become super frequent - there was another one from UploadVR last month and yet another in March from the same people as this - exactly because there's so much stuff really).
It's more analogous to a Sega Saturn and N64 (VR) vs the super popular competition of the PS (flat) than some total flop of a platform that gets no games (Jaguar). Tons of gems to find and enjoy.
Anyone saying there are no games/it's dead without qualifications like known/flat studios/IP is just being ignorant. Whether as a fan of VR or not.
Naturally, the mainstream only hears of the f2p meme games, flat ports, or the occasional title posing (or failing) as AAA.
