It's the issues over the immersion, mostly. The bit of eyestrain and the nausea if you're walking around in game that has to be worked around. After the wow factor goes away it's not much better for many games than just gaming on a screen. Flight sim stuff and racing games could be great, but those aren't super popular sectors right now, and trying to play something like COD would be really nauseous. Personally, I want a great boxing game(I know. Also niche). None have been programmed well enough on VR.
