Nintendo NX: 9 Predictions For The Console’s Biggest Secret Feature

4. Virtual Reality

Now we're approaching more realistic realms of possibility for the NX. The Oculus Rift - and other headsets - are on the way, with the former ready to drop in Spring 2016. The price is high, but that will steadily fall to a price comfortable enough for casual gamers to take advantage of. When that happens, Nintendo need to be ready.

VR is the next step to full-immersion in games, and Nintendo are always keen to run with experimental ideas. As with the holo-lens, I seriously wouldn't be surprised to see the NX launch with the capability to handle headsets. I'd rather delve into a game in that way as opposed to throwing my arms around like a goon in order to complete tasks.
