*JUST IN* I will be receiving my PC Adapter tomorrow August 8th! Look out for comprehensive videos about the setup process and if running high end graphics helps with issues like blurry images, motion blur, and mura!
Setup an alert a month ago to remind me today to buy the PC adapter, started searching, and they are all sold out. What a bummer... What doesn't make sense to me, is that the majority of people do not own a PSVR2, and do not want it, since most are using their Meta Quest VR 3's. So, I find it very strange that they would sell out so fast. The only people who are interested in the adapter are PSVR2 owners, who do not own a Meta Quest 3, like myself. If I had a Meta Quest 3, and did not own a PSVR2, I wouldn't care about this product. Unbelievable.
Possibility is someone looking to resell ie:ebay, etc or someone who thinks it might be useful in the future to get the adapter just in case they might consider getting a psvr2 down the line for use on pc. Even if not a psvr2 owner there are reasons to get one just in case. Theres also the point that sony didn't estimate enough demand and produced just enough to meet expectations. I mean its a simple breakout box adapter.
I never understood the idea of product embargo and the limited information shared about a product pending release. Why hype something like this? They treated the adapter like it was the PS5 or PSVR2. That’s why I ignore every product I’m interested in until the hype dies down and prices normalize from the scalp prices. Companies use these hypes to their advantage for increased sales.
It feels like this was blacklisted on the internet cus I literally couldn’t find anywhere to preorder or buy it until release day it finally showed up but out of stock wtf
Probably the stupidest choice that they had no Pre-orders is stupid. Luckily I did got it tho. (also they would properly stock up for Concord but not for the PC Adapter?)
I made it to checkout on GameStop with my cc number punched in ready to go and as soon as I hit submit the next screen informed me it was out of stock!
this is so unfortunate i got off of work last night and at around two am pst i checked if it was available and it was and i had no idea people were having such crazy issues
I was not confused. I woke up and went on PlayStation Direct and ordered it. I have received my shipping notification and a tracking number and I can see that it is on the way.
Just so you all know you don't need sonys adapter for it to work. If your graphics card has a USB c with virtualink aka 2000 series cards like mine psvr2 works without the adapter just got done playing games with it no adapter
Ive been following this since it was first announced. Im one of those people who had to work so couldnt get one when i got a spare minute. Hope i can find one for msrp soon.
I was lucky and got it at 3am on the 7th through a reddit link to the PS Direct but man they early guys had it on eBay in no time selling for double or triple the price, they should have set a limit of one each .
Thank goodness I woke up early yesterday and ordered mine around 5:40 a.m on PlayStation direct. I get mine today. Scalpers at eBay are already selling this adapter for 200 bucks. Sony should have did a better job knowing well this adapter was going to sell out do the fact they were making limited quality of them in the first place.
I'm not in a rush tbh. But fyi the half life VR game is on sale right now. If you're gonna get the adaptor eventually, you should grab it while it's on sale
Mail your congressmen and tell them to illegalize scalping. Anyway, everyone I know who owns a PSVR2 was able to get one, so it must not be a big deal.
Funny how influencers or others with youtube channels can get a hold of them very quicky isn't it ! One day late only wish it was the same here everywhere says currently unavailable. I do agree with you as regards the Disasterous launch mind you, what a way to run a bussiness seems what everyone was saying (Bitching) about Sony is true.
I ordered mine direct from Sony. Paid for overnight shipping. It's on the UPS truck on it's way to me this afternoon a day since going live. I think you're being a bit dramatic.
@@DustoMan Exactly. You were one of the lucky few lol if you try getting one now, you're only option is to wake up at 6 in the morning and hope you're lucky enough to buy one of the 5 Sony restocks with before it goes unavailable again after 5 min. That or buy from scalpers. Its crazy to me to release a product with no way of pre ordering or buying on the day of release. Its not surprising though. Sony does this with all their big releases.
Most Playstation launch go horribly wrong. Playstation is very careless with their launches. From this launch, to the Playstation 5 launch, going all the way back to the Playstation 3 launch. On the other hand one of the most responsible companies with their launches is Valve/Steam with how they handled the Steam Deck. It wasn't perfect but a million times better than any of the Sony/Playstation launches. Very disappointing on Sony/Playstation considering that they are much larger than Valve/Steam.
Sony, once again, has dropped the ball. Now fuckers have gone to evay and trying to sell it from 95-150 bucks. But every youtube content creator seems to have had no problem getting it. I cant even get a notification of in stock on any of the websites.
Got lucky and just happened to check playstation direct at 6:45a after being disappointed by the launch and seen it was available and quickly snatched one up. Got my tracking number at 5p. Should be here on the 9th
I didn't get the adapter the day before so it's the worst launch ever.....ITS BEEN ON SALE ALL DAY AND IT WILL BE BACK IN STOCK FFS!the entitlement of you and most people is fuckin ridiculous,you got your adapter whats the problem
Only they HAVENT been on sale all day and only go in stock for about 5 min around 6 in the morning. Sony couldve easily let pre-orders happen, or even sent emails to psplus members or people who pre-ordered and bought headsets. Literally there were many ways they could've gone about releasing it. Instead its "you better get your ass up before the sun and hope you're one of the lucky ones who can get it. First come first serve. Don't care about who missed out."
I've always hated scalpers so damn much. That being said im gonna just buy from them from now on. Sony isn't doing anything about it and the actual ONLY way of ordering one, is through scalpers. Unless you manage to wake up at 6 in the morning when the direct site puts 5 of them in stock only to go unavailable after 1 min. I absolutely HATE that it's come to this.

@@andyortega8902 Exactly you couldn’t even search for it I only was able to find some of the listings because of links that redditors posted
Me too, I kept looking but nothing.
Probably the stupidest choice that they had no Pre-orders is stupid. Luckily I did got it tho. (also they would properly stock up for Concord but not for the PC Adapter?)

What a surprise. Sony never stock up properly for any launch. Disgusting customer service as usual
They need to follow in Apples footsteps and make clear and concise release dates with plenty of stock. This type of behavior is unprofessional.
Yeah I was up at 5:20 am EST when it went live , it’s shipped and is arriving tomorrow august 8th from jersey…. I live in the Bronx
Very nice! I’m glad some people were able to get it too.
I’m so eager to get one. Seems impossible
did you wake up and make coffee? then you missed out on the pc adapter.
thank you for shedding the light this i was up from 12 am tuesday and still wasn't able to get it smh
this is so unfortunate i got off of work last night and at around two am pst i checked if it was available and it was and i had no idea people were having such crazy issues
@@Auggie-uj1mw does it perform well?
Woke up Wednesday, checked direct, and now I have one coming tomorrow. Same happened with the ps5. Ordered it on launch day and got it that Friday.
Playstation directseem to have more today, I ordered one in early hours this morning uk
I was not confused. I woke up and went on PlayStation Direct and ordered it. I have received my shipping notification and a tracking number and I can see that it is on the way.
This is the way....I did the same, zero hassle.
Here in NL it's not sold out and had no issues for setup. Been enjoying Halflife on PC 😊

It works with my Rx 6950 XT.
Iv been hearing that it’s sad that new gpus don’t have virtual link anymore
Tried to buy at midnight with no success. Finally was able to buy mine from Sony Direct at 8:15am. Got a tracking number by the afternoon.
Thanks for the updates! I got mine ordered from Amazon Germany
benelux had no stock issues, adapter is well available in europe
Ordered mine off PlayStation last night no problem. Delivery 2-3 days.
Ive been following this since it was first announced. Im one of those people who had to work so couldnt get one when i got a spare minute. Hope i can find one for msrp soon.
My GPU has a USB port and it works without the adapter. However, I hope the adapter comes back because I will need one when I upgrade my gpu
Cheese goes extremly well with all this whine
It is an intentional marketing stunt. Perhaps they did balls up the estimates in the interest for a cheaper headset.

bUT EVERYONE ELSE IS.
I just checked Amazon and it’s still not listed there, I luckily and unfortunately was able to order one off GameStop 😂
i blame scalpers scooping them up with bots
On gamestop i had got the last available copy at my area
Mail your congressmen and tell them to illegalize scalping. Anyway, everyone I know who owns a PSVR2 was able to get one, so it must not be a big deal.
Got mine. PS direct at 1am.
Hmm, I am in UK and for some reason I got to order it easy from PS direct 2 days ago.
Best Buy had it going in and out of stock all day but it was selling out with in minutes
Does the psvr2 work in openxr?
In europ we dont have the problem iets in stock in amazon,playstation store.......

You were one of the lucky few. Thats why you think that.
@@chris_htepo I didn't do anything special I bought it the morning it went live. It had been up for at least 7 hours.

this socieity is stupid , they need for material things is their point of live, and going to get first is priority. its 10 august - premiere
Just ordered from playstation direct in the uk
I bought mine off Amazon.
What country you live in cause that would be impossible if you’re in the us 😂
Mediaworld and game stop in italy no amazon
I have seen all the people I follow get an adapter, easy as pie

Awful customer service as usual, good video mate.
Yup as usual
It's already on Ebay at 200 or more Canadian Dollars XD. Fucking Scalpers. I guess I'll have to wait.
Got lucky and just happened to check playstation direct at 6:45a after being disappointed by the launch and seen it was available and quickly snatched one up. Got my tracking number at 5p. Should be here on the 9th
If you order the German version it has a euro power cord, just order a adapter for your country or use your PS5 or similar power cord😂
Best Buy prioritizes orders for the subscribers of My Best Buy Total ($150 yr)
Very smart marketing. Drip feed units creating impatience and FOMO. I have one and it's a very smart move which IMO will save PSVR2.
You don't need that adapter if you own a GPU with USB-C port with VirtualLink support.
So only if you have like one of what, 2 GPUs? Not viable for 99% of users that already have good or better GPUs.
@@MateoThePro Nvidia 2000 series, AMD 5000 and 6000
Looks like I'll have to keep playing on PS5 until can actually find one
Typical sony bs never can get your product and scalpers ?? For a 60 dollar product god scalpers are pos. I'm good ill wait ✋️
LMAO!!!!! Too many people tried to jump on the PSVR band wagon. Sony didn't plan for that one. I will stick with my Quest 3 for now.
Bye.

@chris_htepo literally every psvr2 owner I know got one out of 20-25 people so it can't be that bad
@@rottieman My friend. No one knows 20 people personally with a PSVR2 headset LOL
@@chris_htepo having a PSVR2 means you have 3 friends whether they play PC games or not
The scalpers got them all, please do NOT pay more than the MSRP, let they keep them or sell them below MSRP.
I've always hated scalpers so damn much.
