It's a pretty terrible strategy imo if true. It's too bad they don't offer Playstation Worlds as a free game, rendering the price difference $50. That makes sense as a "hey you were an early adopter and made a preorder" bonus. As it stands though, the difference is $100 as VR Worlds is a game worth getting. Maybe they sold the launch bundle at a loss, but I'm pretty sure I heard they were selling the VR at a profit.
It's also really confusing for parents wanting to buy it as a Christmas gift. Sourcing out the different bits is a barrier to entry for sure.
