And we all know Kirito would have died if SAO was realistic, he can't actually dual wield without the system's support.
If the world of SAO were realistic the NerveGear never would've made it to shelves.
Sword Art spoilers if anyone really cares
I'm not sure of the standards of quality control in Japan, but I'd think a virtual reality headset that directly assaults a user's brain with lethal microwave radiation would ring a few bells.
I mean, the Oculus Rift already has a bunch of warnings on it about motion sickness, but I'd think that if it had a "death by radiation" feature (FEATURE, mind you. Not side-effect. It is designed to give off microwaves. AS A FAILSAFE, NO LESS. Outside force attempts to disconnect the device? You're dead from radiation.)...
If Oculus Rift had that, I'm fairly certain that not only would the patent office refuse to have it patented, but a bunch of government agencies would investigate that. Hell, I think if it just usurped body control from the user's mind it would probably set off alarms all over the damn place.
Don't get me wrong, I liked SAO (up until Alfheim at least), but the amount of contrived crap needed to have a plot is staggering.

YouTube and Television have taught me that the popularity of any sort of media is inversely proportional to its actual quality and/or entertainment value.
