  • what the fuck was nintendo smoking when they made this peice of shit console

  • i remember playing virtual boy in a huge store when i was a kid. that game was so awesome!! i just remember thinking to myself that the flight was slow... maybe i was doing something wrong though.. and i couldnt find any enemies to shoot!

  • 0:44 Real Steel, anyone?

  • Damn thanks to this guy I know everything is COOL!!

  • The guy sounds like he's reading this off a piece of paper, which he obviously is, but he makes it REALLY seem like it.

  • My eyes. The Goggles, the do nothing!

  • MY EYES....M..MY....EYES....

  • "The bosses are cool, the levels are cool, the whole game is cool."

  • flying through a glass corridor is cool? You sir, have a very different definition of the word. That game was almost impossible to play

  • I heard that the creator of virtual boy resigned after nintendo blamed him for poor sales of VB and died due to car accident after a year. He's also the creator of Gameboy.

  • @stanloy

    Gunpei Yokoi. He was involved in quite a few things, including Metroid and the WonderSwan. Miyamoto learned a good deal of game design in his early years from the man. Unfortunately, the Virtual Boy as we see here, wasn't what he had in mind. I don't know the details, but Nintendo supposedly rushed the system's development.

  • How high was he? He should give those drugs to my retarded friends.

  • one color?

  • Pretty much just an old version of the 3ds

  • DO you have to buy a new one for a new game?

  • taleroboxer its TELROboxer TELL-RO-BOXER

  • warning your eyes will bleed if played

  • lol what is this shit? all virtual boy games are awful apart from wario world the trouble with you is you think GOOD games and bad and awful games are masterpieces

  • The color scheme is capable of harming one's eyes even without the 3D aspect being involved. I know it was more expensive but Nintendo should've just gone ahead and given it full color.

  • @Jonan321 Ever played red alarm?

  • Comment removed

  • @Jonan321 Virtual boy is old, very old, thats like saying pokemon gold or packman suck because of their graphics, it is within Virtual boy to be linear like that. Tell me when you create a virtual boy game 100% like Red Alarm. no I challenge you to do so.

  • Comment removed

  • @Jonan321 When Virtual boy came out, they didn't have half of the tools you have now, you have no base for such arguments.

  • Comment removed

  • @Jonan321 Not lol you're the one that insist in calling them lazy without even perhaps knowing what their resourses where. So i dont care, the game could die. Its like blaming ps1 for not being a ps3 -.-

  • mostly all i hear in this review is cool, cool, cool, cool, COOLLL<< COOOLLLL,,,

  • hahahahaha this has been the nintendo's epic failure hahaha

  • this can zap your eyes...

  • bayp...

  • lmao the depth of the 3d graphics is outstanding I cant stop laughing its just fucking wireframe

  • wtf red alarm the best virtual boy game? dont get me wrong nagtr but cocain is a hell of a drug!

  • @JayOsWorld

    jup of course :D that thing is gonna be legendary

    but i was actually meaning, beyond that :) so maybe the next console or something

    i do like the concept of the virtual boy. imagine when putting on a nice set of goggles enabling you to see a 360 degree virtual reality world in HD. just like the camera cameron used on avatar. add gloves or a nunchuck sort of controller to move around and bam! virtual motion reality that makes a little more sense. at least, thats what i think :P

  • if i ever got a virtual boy, i would not hold it up to my face. I would get a camera to look at the Virtual boy, I don't want to get my eye sight worse than it all ready is and i don't want to look stupid

  • this project was to ambitious for its time

    but now its getting more interesting. If you could put on goggles that actually make you move around in virtual 3D space, its could be frkn awesome

  • @TylerNessss but ambitions a good thingbut they should have put more time and effort into it

  • @darrendude1998

    yeah i know, but effort wouldnt have mattered back then. in that case Nintendo would have been THE brand to actually manage getting it right

    it was far to underdeveloped. but with nowadays technology where as 3D and computer graphics can go as far and crazy as you want, it will open doors we wouldnt have thought of before

    im so eager to find out what Nintendo will come up with next. i think it could be pretty mindblowing actually

  • oh no! not cheeseiness! its a good thing i'm watching these reveiws where there aren't any cheesey jokes or anything.

  • LOW BATTERY

  • Why's Everything Yellow?

  • the whole game is cowl!

  • You can only beat this game by hitting with a bat or a hammer!!!!

  • Nothing's cool. Virtual boy is shit

  • of course this guy would find the virtual boy cool! lol

  • red alarm is the best VB game?... i take my chance with wario world

  • do they even sell it?

  • this was more fun then, more than the games now, we cant even buy them cuz we can't follow technologies in europe cuz hardware is too expencive, nintendo was revolution for games and u could buy it and no worry for system requirments

  • uuuuhhhh the virtual boy was a piece of crap! 

  • Red alarm mesmerises all who play it...

    has this guy ever seen AVGN?

  • m just geting a head acke watching this video! 0_0

  • now there redoing the 3D shit with nintendo 3ds wasn't 3D dead? wtf is this?

  • good thing they came up with nintendo 3ds

  • of course it's in stores now.

    1:10

  • FAILURE NINTENDO!!! lol........but nice try to appease your fans whom were waiting for the nintendo 64

  • the depth of the 3D graphics... is amazing!

    lmao!!!

  • keeeewl :p

  • why isnt in red?

  • goody, look at him now with his negative. when he was acting like a rabid fanboy when the virtual boy came out...

  • lol what if the 3ds turns out the same as virtual boy nintendo plus 3D = hell

  • "CCOOOOOL"

  • the colours (or lack thereof) alone are making my head hurt.

  • This is the only Virtual Boy review i've seen when they are positive about it and think it's awesome. Does this narrator dude work for Nintendo or something? Cos the console was a peice of shit!

  • @somethinglacking1 I dont like this guy, he hated on doom, which is the most retarded thing I have ever heard of.

  • 1:42 - 1:56 - cool...

  • Wiii grandpa :P

  • damn i love the intro theme for these videos, just make me think of the good time of gaming in the 90's

  • this narrator is raping my ass with his voice

  • Did any one count how many times he said cool, something best not to describe this console

  • yes red alarm is a must have, i must get this virtual boy with red alarm, it mesmerizes me, it is the best. the depth of the 3d graphics is outstanding. must have virtual boy

  • Why do i sense well-hidden sarcasm?

  • Go YOSHI!!

  • Awesome!! COOL!!! Totally RAD dude!

  • they say the virtual boy is awesome......well the Idea behind is, but the console is ASS!!!

  • wow worst review ever

  • The guy's enthusiasm is ridiculous; these games don't look look fun at all. And that's coming from someone who grew up on NES/SEGA/N64.

  • Did someone say, "3DS?!"

  • with this review, people would think that bad alert will defeat Crysis in graphic aspects ^^ LOL

  • red alert was badass im bout 2 ply it now

  • you'll get into a coma playing this trash

  • why playing games on a console to see in the game? that is bad idea.

  • Why did they not just play real pinball instead? it would have been amazingly cheaper and better physics ROFLCOPTER

  • Is this a sarcastic review, or was it released in the 90's or was it made up to seem like it was released in the 90's?

  • The written words are from the 90's, but the voice is an updated reading of the original written review. So the actual voice, is current, but what he is reading is an unchanged review/statement from 1995. So it is a weird combination of retro and current at the same time

  • LLRLR select start

    awesome mode for mario tennis...clearly the best tennis game any system has to offer

  • virtual boy, i dont they even make this anymore O.o i thought they said it gave off to much radiation or something <.<

  • Ohh man I'd been missing the cover to the battery pack for about five years and I just found it in my closet today. Been great to play Mario Tennis, Wario Land, Vertical Strike, and Funky Bowling in the dark again. I was like the only kid I knew that had one back then

  • @TRJ22487

    thats hilarious maN!!!

  • funny marketing strategies. They clearly state that this game is good, but nothing compared to this other one... haha, how did THAT work out?

  • the virtual boy melted my eye's

  • @Alanjohnamerican you should sue them for ur eyes glad to see u can type somehow

  • @Alanjohnamerican i know this is from 1 year ago on your comment but on the box on the virtual boy it is red and had a warning saying it can give seasures and headachs

  • It was obviously a ill conceived machine but I would love to buy one second hand to see what it is like to play!!

  • red alarm s a great game? not even they can play it

  • lol no kidding, were they drunk flying?

  • Funny is that the promoter sound just like the newtime ones haha this game has nice grafics and so on lol! looks like a big gameboy to me in orange coller diskplay =)

  • red alarm, yuck, was the worst vb game i thought even though i love the vb such a shame we didnt get more out of it

  • sounds more like a gameboy than 16bit sound what a shame.

  • The console vitural boy is 32 bit

  • When was this released?

  • around 1995

  • Thanks.

  • lol? i heave thvink thats the virtualboy hes a cool graphic but thits shit

  • no color !!!

  • always wondered why this is in yellow and not red

  • LOL EVERYTHING IS COOL!

  • because he dosent want to say fuckin awesome

  • Maybe he`s describing himself:

    Constipated

    Overrated

    Out of style

    Loser

    If that makes sense. :P

  • ohho good one!

  • COOL!

  • O_o its in yellow? god why didnt they keep it that way lol

  • This is like an very old, extremely interesting collectors item now.

  • Geeze, the guy doesn't seem to know what he's even going on about, and who ever is playing is doing a terrible job at that...

  • tell-er-o-boxer?

    its teleroboxer! (tele-ro-boxer) : P

  • the virtual boy was such a fuckin fail, it was originally going to have a link cable to make it multi-player, but it died so fast, it never came out, nor had a game that was 2p, it was a non-portable, cheap, overpriced gimmick that died so fast, it was retired in less than a year.

  • When I was in junior high I played Red Alarm for like 10 minutes in Wal Mart when they had one set up. It was fucking badass.

    Maybe as a Christmas present I'll buy one on eBay. I bet it kicks ass when you're baked.

  • I remember my buddy having this system. I was young when they came out with this system but from what I could remember it was awesome. To bad Nintendo had to piss off the guy who created it because if they decided to make it now it would be crazy

  • Nintendo should REALLY try this again, but with color, longer battery life, better graphics and they should put the buttons on the head unit so you can hold it like binoculars. And most important: NO seizures or eyestrain. And no headaches.

  • Yes. Or make a pair of current tech 3d glasses and make them 3d with Wii tech. Even using Wiimotes as the controllers. Teleroboxer is so cool, why didn't we have him as the ONLY Virtual Boy representer not even a trophy. The trophy selection in SSBB sucked.

  • I will like that ALSO all the games 1st Person!!!

  • woah Im gong to play red alarm in my vboy :D

  • im probly the only person alive getting one of these for my birthday. me and my friends are goin to have a contest to see who can play it the longest without killing there eyes.

  • my eyes are going to hurt

  • VIRTUAL FAIL

  • I remember HOURS of playing on this, when it needed to charge, me and my brother would play submarine and pretend it was a periscope.

  • Are you kidding me announcer man?? The Virtual Boy was a piece of shit! You'd be lucky if this thing didn't destroy your vision completely within 45 minutes.

  • not in 3d games are all in 2d and then they all suck, the virtualboy was a failure and had to quit thinking that in order to "compete" at the playstation 1

  • of course that nothing hapenned that doesnt work like that

  • I watched this video with 3D-glasses, but I don't saw any effects...

  • No, no. Virtual Boy is set in 2 screens. The left eye scans the left part, and the right eye scans the right hand side of the game. There are 2 eye glasses where you put against you. its like a TV but set EXACTLY how your eyes see it, like pixels on laptop.

  • Ah then good thing the first VR32 game I got was Red Alarm

  • My eyes are going to bleed.

  • COOL!

  • lol you know if I played Red Alarm back then I think I would think it looked like garbage.

  • Why is everything so cool for him?

  • You can't compare Super Mario Kart with Mario Tennis...

  • what happened to the youtubes

    voice ?

    that who reads what u type like microsoft sam ?

  • 2:26 i lol,d

  • Teleroboxer is BEST!

  • wher i can buy ??

  • ebay

  • WHAT?! RED ALARM GOOD?!

    what the fuck, it sucks hard

  • this dumbass puts down good games and praises games that are............. *Makes sign of the cross*

  • Reminds me of C. Neal (if you type in his s/n, he would be kolibiri)

  • the worst fail ever ;)

  • whos the idiot reviewer

  • my eyes just exploded onto the pc screen after watching.........jk

  • pfff the Virtual Boy,.. now that was a rip-off..

  • lol this is like the nintendo wii (I mean the tennis)

  • and sort of boxing

  • aww my childhood :D the first console I saw was nes and I used to play super nes with my neighboor.. good days :D but Ive never played vb it wasnt that popular though

  • Red Alarm is the best Virtual Boy game?Hell No!That game was an unpolished,unfinshed Rip-Off of StarFox.Want a really good Virtual Boy game?Get WarioLand and Jack Bros and your good to go! :D

  • Innsmouth Mansion is the best game.

  • were these fun or good at all, can anyone answer??????

  • Can't we enjoy Virtual Boy without Clinton's ugly mug in our face. Seriously, what does Clinton have to do with anything related to gaming? Was gaming some kind of utopia when Clinton was screwing interns??

  • i had all the games ...that shit brings back memories

  • I would love to play one of these Virtual Boy console.

  • Where's Innsmouth Mansion?

  • Too much red.

    Can't look directly at red for long period of time. -_-

  • Michealangelo: "Whoa Like, video games in 3D!"

  • Back in the day, my sisters friend broke the legs off of it...so I have to lay down to play it...

  • wario cruise? more like wario land.

  • I thought it was pretty fun to when I first played it when it first cam out I was like ten years old I use to lay down to play the dam game LOL the reason why it came out cause all that Virtual shit was taking over in the malls and arcades. They need to make a new one with the technology these days you can have one that straps right on your head so you can stand and move around no more sitting are laying down plus the graphics nowadays it would be tight I would like to see it done again

  • could have been good if it wasnt for the seizures every half hour

  • Virtual Boy was a good system, but was just ahead of it's time

  • I can't bvelieve this system got discontinued. This system could of been perfected to be one of the coolest portable systems in the 90s

  • in the minute 1:36, is a starfox game?

  • no it's red alarm

  • no, it's Red Alarm, but is like a Starfox rip-off.

  • it sucks ass red arlam more like shit

  • Virtual Boy = Dizziness

  • "OW..OW..OW OW-OW-OW MY EYES-OW"

    Those were the words when I first played Virtual Boy in 1997.

  • Virtual Boy really sucks damb

  • Virtual Boy had some inherent setbacks, but it's still a pretty cool device to own. I still remember when I first tried Mario Tennis!

  • Cool! Cool! Cool! >.> COOL!

  • Lol what a failure, I was one of the suckers who bought this garbage...I still have mine too.

  • why did you have to ruin this video with bill clinton?

  • Cool would have been not recommending this garbage.
