It isn’t exaggerating to say that Japanese players went crazy to make sure that they will get their VR headset on time.
This time, we’re not getting it for more money than what they have to pay. While the West gets the PlayStation VR for 400 dollars/euros, the Japanese have to pay 48570 JPY, about 410 euros. However, pre-ordering are closed down over there. When the pre-orders opened, the Japanese people quickly rushed down the shops to be able to pre-order and get the headset on time. In fact, some stores played a lottery so the winner can place a pre-order on the PSVR…
It’s not all, though: Sony will have multiple events for the fellow Japanese to allow them to try out the PlayStation VR. Indeed, the local market for the company is also very important when it comes to the October 13-launching headset.
