Oculus wands would make a barely more compelling experience of a butterfly landing on your finger.

When Apple’s ready they’ll release haptic gloves that smash that experience out of the park.

Hope so! I would buy them immediately. :-D

(Not holding my breath, though...)

And yeah, the Oculus controllers wouldn't nail the butterfly on finger demo, but if they had controllers, the demo would be a hawk landing on your forearm. (And that would work, even though it doesn't quite make sense that your palm would vibrate when a bird lands on your forearm... but haptic feedback is weird.)
