Or perhaps all we need are gamers.  The Oculus Rift (
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1523379957/oculus-rift-step-into-the-game)
is a great example of how people are pushing the limits of virtual reality
technology in the pursuit of fun.      In the years to come, people will
begin to spend more and more time playing virtual reality games.  As the
quality of these games improves, some people (most in my opinion) will come
to the realization that virtual reality is much more enjoyable than our
current reality and will begin a push to integrate themselves into the
virtual world(s) more permanently.
