I would rather have the opportunity to become an early investor so as to not get screwed when Facebook buys the startup I want to back.

Ooooh. Props for a sick burn.

I wonder what legal obligations Occulus still has to the Kickstarter backers?

I read somewhere that Occulus has zero obligation to kickstarters since the people who backed the project all received what they signed up for, a tee shirt of a dev kit, etc. I would rather have tens of thousands of dollars instead.
