IMO it's not just the deeper pocket and preexisting fanbase, it's Sony's great relationship with the gaming industry (not to mention its high quality first party studios) that is almost impossible for Oculus to compete with. The founder then probably realized that gaming is no longer the main path Oculus should focus on. If the new strategy is to pursue a more broader application of VR then working with FB makes more sense than it looks.

As a gamer, though, I can hardly see any other application of VR having more potential to become mainstream than VR in gaming.

Tourism could be a huge application of VR. I want to visit about 1000x as many places as I'll ever be able to -- VR could be a big part of making that possible.
