The Virtual Boy catalogue as part of the Nintendo Classics range of games for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers is now available to download on the Nintendo eShop. To play the selection of games you will need to own the Nintendo Virtual Boy replica or the cardboard alternative. The games include Mario Tennis and Virtual Boy Wario Land.
Virtual Boy Nintendo Classics now available to download
Has anyone tried playing it without the peripheral? I imagine it’s just two “screens” side by side. I’d really love to try Wario Land but I’m just not paying for a headset, cardboard or not.
Ok, I just downloaded and tried it. It is two very small screens but the software doesn’t actually check if you have the 3D headset or not. It might still be playable but man… in handheld it’s so small… I just can’t believe Nintendo dropped the ball so hard on this one. Just make a 2D version option!
F em
Mario Tennis isn’t available yet. Please correct that.
Also, you can just play the games cross-eyed, and get the same 3D effect. No peripheral needed.
I don’t know how to go cross eyed haha
Trust me, you don’t want to do it- I can’t for more than 2 seconds before my eyes hurt and I have to stop.
I can cause double vision to happen, but I can’t get adjacent images to shift far enough to create one image
Yes it is stop lying….Mario Tennis VB exist in our hearts…
Go open up the app, look at the games, see what’s available to play right now and then come back here and apologize for saying I was lying.
