It’s time for another Virtual Boy post!

Teleroboxer (1995) is a game about people who control giant robots using VR and punch the shit out of each other until one of the robots breaks down.

It’s basically mecha Punch-Out! and I love it. Great use of stereoscopic 3D and stereo sound. Plus it’s super fun! :virtualboy:

Mario’s Tennis was the pack-in game for the Virtual Boy. Nintendo originally intended to include a 2 player mode where players could link two VB systems together and play against each other or co-op against CPU opponents in 2v2 matches.

Sadly, the link cable was never released and the game remained a single player game. It’s still fun to play and has catchy music! :virtualboy:

As a kid I actually got to try one of these.
Kind remember much about it other than that it was quite straining on the eyes

No tenía ni idea de que las pantallas de la Virtual Boy generaban una única línea de píxeles con un espejo moviéndose de manera sincronizada para dibujar toda la pantalla.

Just watched this Slow Mo Guys video about the Virtual Boy, and realised it uses a similar different-time-per-exposure that LED matrix panels use! (see 8:35 ish)

I failed to dig out a definitive answer for the number of red-levels it has - the wikipedia page [1] claims 2-bit / 4-levels, and cites an engadget article [2] that suggests 32-levels.

Does anyone here know? Was I even correct in the different-time-per-exposure statement?

(I love these micro LED style displays... see also Avago HCMS)

Envie de voir comment le Virtual Boy affiche des images en utilisant juste des LEDs et des miroirs ?

Et en plus tu peux tout voir en super ralenti !

So I always wanted a Virtual Boy but never picked one up because expensive and hard to find. I am excited for the VC release on Switch 2 this year, and am considering the replica, though if I reading it correctly I have to drop my switch in there and it's not actually doing the display?

Anyway I had read that the 3ds emulation was amazing and the 3D effect was really good, and ohy goodness this is so much fun. If you have a modded 3ds I highly recommend it!
