Nintendo was doing that as early as 1987:
Warioland was a solid game, sad it hasn’t gotten a re-vamp yet.
Fun fact: If you have a 3DS, you can now experience these games in 3D with the Red Viper emulator!
I recently did this and Warioland was awesome!
Also meta quest has a VR app VB emu
Sure but it’s from Facebook
There was a boxing Kangaroo and I hated him so fucking much.
I played the VB a ton when I was a kid. I guess I was just a dumb kid but it always felt fine to me, I never felt any eye strain or anything. Maybe I just have super eyes.
I had the Virtual Boy system when I was a kid and I feel like I’m the only person who actually enjoyed it lol I don’t recall ever getting any headaches but then I wasn’t on there all day or anything
I really thought it was cool but was way too expensive for what it was.
A friend of mine whose parents were divorced had it. He let me play it a ton and I didn’t get any dizziness or eye damage.
Similarly, I’m the only person I know who enjoys the 3DS for the 3D screen
The 3DS’ 3D was actually great and people who claim to hate it just hate progression!
It was great, and society has only regressed since we gave up on 3D displays
@lord_ryvan @atocci I liked it too. Unfortunately my 3ds broke and I ended up replacing it with a late 2ds, which is mostly fine since most of what I play are old GBA games, and I got a bigger screen that way. But someday I might want to redo Ocarina and then I might care.
Has anyone had any luck with 3D emulation? I tried Citra with colored 3d glasses once, but didn’t get too far. But I think frankly I just needed a better computer.
I too am a 3D screen enjoyer on the 3DS. But I don’t really play fast-moving games where the 3D would create vision issues.
The best way to play this thing is to get a headband or something so you can strap it to your face like a real VR helmet, then just lay back in bed and jam.
I absolutely loved this thing for the actual game experience. The design for how you were supposed to use it, though, was absolute shit. Not even the children it was made for sit that low to a table for it to really be comfortable. You would almost always have to hunch over awkwardly and you’d definitely want a pillow or something for your chin… Just awful.
I remember trying to play it in the car by pressing it into the seat in front of me with my head. Lol
