That's a seriously outstanding idea! If you write Craig Federighi and/or Tim Cook a thoughtful letter with your idea, they'll definitely read your letter and consider it. And will send you a reply.

If you buy AVP, you save $1000 because you don't have to buy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_Rich
Frank Casanova, Apples lead Marketer for the Vision Pro just "retired". I guess that tells you everything.
What it tells me is after 36 years at Apple and holding various senior level positions, it was time to retire and enjoy life. No scare quotes needed around the word retired.
Many engineers in Silicon Valley retire around that point in time. It's not unusual.
Imagine paying thousands of dollars for a car so you can drive to church two blocks away!
Oh wait... cars can actually take you to other places besides church! You can drive to work, to a shopping center 20 miles away, on a road trip across a few states, to pick up relatives at the airport, pick up your kids from school, buy groceries two cities away.
And on and on and on. It's just a matter of exercising one's imagination.
I didn't realize you could only pick one app and then you were stuck using forever.
Not a puzzle but Loóna: Cozy Puzzle Games might be good entertainment for kids:
Loóna for Apple Vision Pro
Loóna: A relaxing spatial game offering intuitive puzzle mechanics to assemble 3D dioramas, transforming pieces into vibrant, animated scenes that come to life

This is pretty sad, I mean your post. With this logic you could attack any new product, Vision Pro is incredible advanced, it will be a niche for some time maybe forever but still it is an impressive tech especially to other VR set, and you know that there are very useful ways to use it and also to be productive with specialized apps. As always Macrumors forum/comment section shows its worst.
Screen size, immersion, playing while doing other stuff with windows bigger than any real screen.
Oh my god! this is it! we have all waited.. we have all speculated! what could the killer app be ?! And then it arrives! amazing. I'm getting my 3500 quid right now!
A lot of money for playing card games…
It’s not sold in my country so not a problem.
Surely they could have developed a 3D version for this kind of money?
Exactly. These are little toys and gimmicks. Where is the killer app that will demonstrate how revolutionary AR and VR truly are?
True.
I continue to be puzzled by the absolutely lacklustre marketing of this AVP.
While the official line from Apple Inc on his retirement may be that "it was planned a long time ago and we wish Frank well!", the timing is spectacularly awkward.
Curious that MacRumours haven't yet picked up on this story.
Good to know but would like to see more games in general and especially for Apple Arcade.
Yeah OK... But where are the killer apps for AVP? Simply there aren't... And guess why? Because AVP is an expensive gadget that put the user alone from the real world outside without any great benefit in return. After two months the hype is faded away: production orders dropped by the 50% from Apple ( worldwide ) and vacant slots for personal demos in the AS!! End of the spatial computing era!!
