With everyone’s favorite plumber making the jump to a mobile, the question then turned to just where else we might see Mario next. According to Miyamoto, the answer to that question definitely isn’t VR.
Thirdverse, the Japan-based VR studio behind Swords of Gargantua, Altair Breaker, and X8, announced that its VR multiplayer JRPG SOUL COVENANT is coming to all major headsets next month. Developed by the core team behind SOUL SACRIFICE (2013), players are thrust into a post-apocalyptic Tokyo in the franchise’s first VR expansion.
In a very recent development, Capcom has announced that the VR mode for the “Resident Evil 4” remake is scheduled to be added on the 8th of December as an update and will support the full main story campaign, offering an unprecedented gaming experience to its users. However, RE Series fans have another reason to rejoice as there is a possibility that RE Series might get a VR Version in the future.
This I would welcomed, haven’t replayed any of the older games since released years ago. VR would definitely get me to replay them all again. Make it happen Capcom.
You can already play RE 2-3-7-8 on PC via VR mods (Praydog) they offer hand-tracking movement (like PSVR2 Village) and full VR cutscenes.
THE RE7 mod is better compared to the old PSVR version due to hand tracking.

"Modding != Official Support"
And?
You can still play it in VR and worse it shows that this is far from a complicated feat requiring a full studio with tons of money since it's been done by 1 guy working on this mod from time to time.
So basically this could have been done by Capom a long time ago.
And again You should try (it's pretty easy to install) for Res7 for It's improved even on the PSVR version of the game.
Spencer Mansion in VR would be AMAZING. That is my favorite video game setting of all time.
SEGA’s Second Division Manager, Osamu Ohashi, wants to surpass Mario by strengthening the Sonic IP.
Nah, Sonic is definitely iconic but it will never be at the level of Mario. Much less surpass it...
They can compete but Mario will always win. Mario and Sonic cater to different fans or fans who like both.
Sonic doesn't have to compete though. Both are their own thing, there's plenty of room for them both.
Thing is Sonic despite the bad games is still an icon as big as Mario, probably bigger cause he's seen more in media than Mario. More cartoons, more movies, more memes. So on that end he's good, they just gotta stop making bad games.
Of course not; Mario in first person just feels awkward.
This is one of those situations where, as the owner and developer, he's right in that they can choose to not make a VR Mario experience, but he's wrong in saying it's not a right fit. That would be for the consumer to decide if one were ever made.
Lucky's Tale was incredible to play on the Oculus Rift and if something like Mario 64 were put onto it, it would blow people's minds.
Metroid would be INSANE in VR though.
Such a shame to hear him say that.
The man that revolutionized 3d games would be blessing to VR. VR needs its Super Mario 64 moment. The games out now aren't even Jumping Flash.
