I'm not sure EA would take a chance on Sims VR right now; they'd probably wait until the prices drop on the headsets and make sure there's a single standard for the technology to avoid being stuck on the wrong side like people did in the VHS v. Betamax wars. They're not really interested in producing a niche game that's going to require an extra $300-500 (in US) investment to play -- they'd rather people spend their money with them not an outside company to buy equipment.

My main concern about VR is whether there is a risk of eye damage if you spend too much time immersed in it. Most doctors advise people who do a lot of computer work is to take frequent breaks and let your eyes focus on something away from the screen (those loading screens in Sims 4 come in handy to signal you to take a break!) before returning to your activities. It might take 10 or 20 years before we see a rash of people hitting up the optician's offices looking for glasses or the surgeon for laser surgery thanks to playing VR games. Just not sure if enough research has been done into long-term effects.

But from the sounds of it I phones and phone games do far worse damage to eyes than any other form of gaming.
