PS5 can't play 3D BluRay apparently... That's me out for upgrading unless they patch it in
3D BluRay is one of the most used things on my PS4 whether it's on my 3DTV or PSVR
As much as I'm of 3d blurays myself this is a pain but not a reason to drop out.
Very few new 4k TV's come with 3d capabilities.
Which is a pity, as the extra pixel count would make the likes of passive setup great, which obviously benefits an upgraded headset.
Granted I do prefer the passive setup over the flickering, another thing to charge setup/sync but that is a different chat altogether

It's reason enough for me. Pretty much every BluRay I own is 3D and I only buy 3D BluRays.
The PS4 will remain in place until it can be fully replaced, but that means the replacement has to do everything the existing one does.
I have a ton of 3d blurays so I feel your pain.
I got a 4k Tv with its matching Bluray player that plays 3d blurays but just not on my 4k TV!
I always used the PS3 or 4 as my 3d player to watch on my 3d TV in a separate room.

I might actually go the projector route if 4K 3DTVs become extinct! Get the added benefit of more space if the TV is removed from the living room and replaced with a fold-up ceiling projector screenI love holding onto electronics
Well I've just dug out several of my old Game and Watches from the 80s to compare to my new Super Mario Game & Watch so I think I've still managed to hold onto any electronics I've received since I've been alive

The industry does appear to be moving away from them, which is odd as watching Gravity or Doctor Strange or Blade Runner 2049 in full 3D on my 55" are some of the most enjoyable home cinema moments I've had.
I wonder was there a motion sickness problem for some similar to those that don't like VR

Throw Avatar in there also, for an amazing 3d experience.
Huge fan of 3d movies at home.
3d at home never took off as peoples experience of 3d was in the cinema and it was meh as they started to add it to everything.
Watch Sense and Sensibility in 3D (never happened)
But to watch it at home is a completely different experience and a better overall experience.
The next hurdle was the active glasses, convince someone to spend €1k on a 3D tv with 2 sets of glasses each pair of glasses need to be synced and charged up to watch the TV and they are a little expensive to buy more sets.
Active glasses could give you a headache/motion sickness a little.
Passive glasses reduced image quality.
Final hurdle is getting people to sit at home and wear the glasses!
Also to confuse the consumer with 2 standards has people not buying into it.
There is new really fascinating tech coming regarding 3d/holograms/projectors but I imagine that will be more for museums public display and theme park rides.
The glasses will sync individually to a system so everyone has a different angle as to what they are looking at.
Its not a dead tech, but slightly dead for home use!0 -

This was my go to guide when I went on a binge of buying 3D Blurays:
https://www.cinemablend.com/3d/
Just bare in mind that its reviewing the 3d effect solely and not the movie itself.
Use IMDB ratings to see if the movie was any good.
Only watched Avatar 3 weeks ago with my friend in Bigscreen, Hugo next, and Jurassic World a few days ago.
Still getting some mileage out of the Bluray drive i bought for my PC. 0 -

Hugo is amazing... not the sort of movie I would have bothered with but it's a superb watch in 3D and great story to boot0 -
