But this should surprise no one: all the previous expensive AR/MR headsets that have been initially targeted at consumers, like Magic Leap or HoloLens, ended up being used mostly in enterprise sectors.

Virtual Reality (VR), by contrast, can be published across a wide range of devices (headsets like Oculus Go/Quest and Gear VR, phones, Google Cardboard, WebVR, and much more), is completely immersive, and doesn’t necessarily require a real-time data connection (ie can be run offline). So why is immersion important?

Instead of displaying signage in-store which features a model marketing merchandise, let consumers see themselves in the ware with the help of a Magic Mirror. Magic Mirrors, like the one shown below from FXGear, require no download or device to be able to show a consumer what they look like in inventory that may or may not even be in store.

This new way of distributing your apps that have not been approved for the Official Quest Store should work through unlisted store pages : if your game has not been approved on the store, you can still create an unlisted page on the Oculus Store for it, and send the link to the people you want to download and play your experience.
