Re: "I Still Think The Virtual Boy Was Probably Just Too Ahead Of Its Time" - Japanese Developers On Nintendo's Most Infamous Flop

It was ahead of its time, as 3DS proved.

Anyone with a modded 3DS can install Red Viper Virtual Boy emulator and enjoy the entire library in stereoscopic glasses-free 3D, adjusting the color from red to anything on the spectrum, which is an infinite number of color choices.

Thats the definitive Virtual Boy experience, imo. No visor or weird cramping position looking through the eyepiece. Just straight up 3D effect like other 3DS games. Why they never officially released them on that console is beyond me. But it makes so much sense, somebody took the time to actually develop an emulator that did just that, 3D effect and everything.

I'm still buying the VB from the NSO store, but I don't think anything will ever beat playing on RedViper emulator on 3DS.
