I think it's one of the two reasons that Nintendo didn't push bleeding edge tech in following systems. The other being the N64. I imagine in the board room at Nintendo a big board on the wall, on that is pictures of both the N64 and Virtual boy with stats on how much they lost them and any time someone mentions going for more advanced and powerful hardware, someone points at that board.

Just wanted to commend you on the commitment to the colour scheme (used judiciously to save our eyeballs) and also going above and beyond, showing off the homebrews (and what the VB is capable of - street fighter looks great!) and that you bought a RGB out to give us such a clean image. A winner is you!

"Gunpie Yocoy", ok now you're just trolling :D By the way, I think it's a damn shame that Nintendo never ported these games to 3DS. I think it would've been a great preservation effort. They could even have added new color modes if you don't want the typical redness.

@@AlucardsQuest I've prepared myself to VR with 3D games on PS3 and 3DS :) Sometimes movement in VR feels much too smooth for a real life making the brain think we ate something poisonous (toxins change our perception) and need to vomit asap. When this happens I shake and nod my head and body a little to create the feel of those natural movement bumps. Try repeating your meditation mantra (if you have one) and slow breathing (4 seconds inhale, 7 seconds hold and 8 seconds exhale). It reduces the adrenaline in the body thus helping with both headche and nausea. To relax stiffen shoulders, neck, jaws and eyes helps a lot too. Some parts of PS VR headset push on my temples causing headache after some time. So I wear my light earphones with small headband under the helmet to prevent this.

What was innovative about the Virtual Boy, and my favorite feature, was the portability of the system. On long bus rides I would just get completely lost in its worlds and end up having to walk home from another state. I miss the 1970's.

Got crazy excited when I heard the Jack Bros. music during the console overview. Jack Bros is such a fun game it's a shame it's not available on any other consoles. It's also worth mentioning that Jack Bros was the very first MegaTen game to be localized and released in English. Oh, and Joe, just as a friendly tip if you cover more games in the franchise in the future. It's Megami ten-say, not ten-sigh.

Yes. And you can easily notices if the sound is from the right or left side of the screen. Especially in Wario Land and Jack Bros.

I can't watch the Waterworld segment without remembering what AVGN said. "Waterworld. On Virtual Boy. It's like puking on a pile of shit!" He also said he reviewed the entire library, and it turns out he didn't. He only reviewed the games released in North America, none of the Japan exclusive ones. This video really does have the entire library.
