How the Virtual Boy TRIGGERS You!

warning the following video is not over exaggerated basically all opinions shared are accurate to my thoughts and feelings what more do i really need to say it's the damn virtual boy just look at it what in the absolute hell happened here high resolution 3d graphics that adds up i love that batteries not included is highlighted in the same way as the other console futures instead of being i don't know hidden on the back or something speaking of the back of the box it highlights about half of the entire north american virtual boy library if you're going to make a headset include a head strap cheap plastic legs aren't going to do the job and you know it oh wait there is no head strap because the virtual boy weighs too much it would probably strain your neck shortly after straining your eyes which yes i'll bring it up virtual boy games hard to look at bad yadda yadda the only person that actually likes two d-pads and the controller is d-pad gamer probably also if this console has high resolution 3d graphics like it says it has you'd think that the controller would have like yeah gulped idle no a joystick for 3d movement six double-a batteries to power this piece of crap i can think of at least one better way to go through batteries and that's pushing buttons on my remote for hours on end because that would actually be more fun but what about the battery life it's about four hours in length yeah pretty lame in comparison to the game boy lineup and the battery pack is attached to uh the controller that makes no sense whatsoever like maybe it was to prevent the virtual boy from being too heavy or something but what this face velcro strap thingy is surprisingly comfortable but my biggest gripe is there's no way to replace it what if you hand the virtual boy to a friend that's super sweaty and then gets it all gross and stuff this thing is bacteria heaven why are the start and select buttons the same size and shape as a and b like i get they were going for like the symmetrical look but you know there's a reason the pause button on every other controller known to mankind is shaped differently it lacks the same importance and is meant to be harder to reach these shoulder buttons mesh well with my hands but they just feel cheap the sheer irony of nintendo putting their question and service phone number right next to where your eyes are not in service what are you talking about not in service i need to fix my virtual boy the virtual boy is technically portable but you need to stand to set it down somewhere so uh yeah i'm sticking with game boy actual portable here the 3d effects are very underwhelming nowadays even when they got it working properly on the 3ds a lot of people didn't use the 3d oh yeah this is another thing i'm obligated to mention there's this extension port to play multiplayer games but it never released so yeah i brought it up now go delete your comments saying that i forgot to bring this up please just watch the whole video just do it you know if you have to make all your games red and black to reduce the cost of your system it's probably not a good idea to begin with if you're gonna make a virtual reality headset without head tracking don't make a virtual reality headset maybe the virtual boy didn't sell well because the commercials turned it into a terrifying monster and everyone ran away from it that's what i'm doing you might be wondering how many virtual boy games are there 22 that's right just 22 and i'm gonna play them all right now because i will never have a reason to ever play any of these ever again every single game asks you if you want to turn automatic pause on or off seriously like i get it's to help with the ice stream but that's just as bad as wii games telling you to take a break every 10 minutes [Music] for mario's first tennis game it's ridiculously bare bones it's just tennis with mario sprites so i'm gonna make this point for a lot of virtual boy games but this does not scream virtual reality mario's tennis could run on super nintendo luigi vs princess isn't centered properly and it's bothering me a lot peach do be shaking that thing like it's nobody's business i'm not okay with this music for a supposedly advanced console it sure sounds like this belongs on the game boy still we're not facing off against donkey kong jr just donkey that's all yoshi's face and waddle when he wins is actually fantastic why is koopa so terrifying the character select screen doesn't scroll on both sides so if i want to go right then i have to go from the left side all the way to the right side and vice versa wow what an exciting launch game pinball and space that's a new one the pedals aren't very satisfying to hit it feels like there's a tiny bit of delay in the input which really takes me out of the immersion the physics are a little wonky the puck feels way too floaty there's only four pinball tables that is a pathetic amount i never thought i'd say that i got my ball stuck in between mega man helmets and galactic pinball on the virtual boy but uh here we are now seriously why does the ball slow down as i'm approaching the pedal it keeps throwing me off you'd think nintendo would have used punch out instead of you know whatever teller boxers supposed to be man i wish i was as cool as johnny maybe someday uh rick why is your head going from your shoulders to your stomach oh i think i need an adult picky is 527 years old is this a typo or is it just a v tuber there's only seven opponents in one final boss it would have been nice to at least top out at 10 or 12. whoa there mamuru you can't just lift your torso out of your body that is 100 cheating you know i could have mistaken this as an alpha build for star fox but uh no this is just how red alarm looks good luck good luck is right i'm playing red alarm on the virtual boy okay i seriously have no idea where i'm supposed to go this is horrible and the first person mode doesn't help at all yes i tried it this kind of game would really benefit from a remaster on the switch or oculus rift virtual boy wario land is the name they went with huh i kind of preferred wario cruz over virtual boy wario land okay but for real it's a disgrace that a game this fun is stuck on the virtual boy this would have been great on the game boy color or game boy advance i'm all about evolving the game of tetris but uh this is not the way to go about that half of these tetris pieces aren't even actual tetris pieces like if you're gonna call it 3d tetris why change things so drastically my god this is so disorienting i can barely tell where anything is so more colors would have maybe helped i don't know maybe not wait look on the right side of the screen this shows exactly where the piece is gonna drop okay well now i know how the game works but i can only play properly by staring at this guide and not looking at the 3d part of the game so uh yeah that's kind of stupid why does every puzzle piece on this menu looks like it wants to kill me ah yes golf the first thing i think of when i imagine vr the golf course isn't green so i don't think i can play this all i can see is blood and death all over the course that's it i'm not the only one that's imagining hotel mario right now right so the one real mario game we got for the virtual boy is just mario bros but in 3d i know a 2d platformer was in the works for virtual boy but this is just sad the music is horrible [Music] not all mario music is great but this is another level of generic and forgettable for some reason i'm allowed to try level 40 on the get-go and i can confirm that that was not my best plan hitting the spinys from the distance is a cool idea but the depth perception is so hard to get used to i don't know man it just feels wrong seeing the mario logo without any color besides red and black gotta love the elevator button sound effects can anyone explain to me what's so funky about nestor's funky bowling i mean admittedly i giggle saying it out loud but it's just bowling how funky can it possibly be look how freaking big the tm trademark is on the logo so when you get a spare in this game a spare change machine pops up huh okay oh i found the funky it's uh it's nestor's facial expressions okay now that's truly riveting whoa well wait a second play that back nestor just lost all of his hair in like two seconds i am never going bowling after this this flame animation with the shadowing is the best worst thing i've ever seen i can't stop looking at it why is kirby in my bomberman spin-off and why is the music so creepy like really it's just a puzzle game why is this on virtual boy how do you even make a puzzle game without some normal arcade or endless mode so the virtual reality gimmick for vertical force is that you can move your ship up and down ah yeah it's basically the same concept as xevious with dropping bombs on the ground but whatever works anyone else think that our ship is way too big god it's so hard to tell what you can hit from the top and bottom layers also the laser power-up sucks don't grab this one you know just in case you ever play this game yeah [Music] it sure is baseball the music is actually pretty catchy but i'd much rather play this on a normal console i still don't understand why this movie needed a game based off of it but then it's also on the virtual boy of all things so basically you just shoot stuff especially the guys on water bikes truly riveting gameplay the virtual reality effect is zooming the camera in and out yawn waterworld isn't even that bad as some people say it is it's just really boring i know i sound like a broken record but this is another game that would have made more sense on a normal game boy it's actually really fun i just hate that i have to play it in two colors a password system in the year 1995. the game specifically said that i can only push boulders but not pull them that doesn't make sense but okay yes i'm even playing the japanese exclusive games have mercy on my soul there's not even a menu for virtual lab you just jump into the game oh my god i am low-key crushing on this anime girl this is not okay this is virtual boy i can't be doing this when you pause the game it says take a rest um okay i guess i'll take a rest good night moving around is not only laggy but the pieces move way too fast how do you mess up the controls for a puzzle game so i hate fishing games on a normal scale how bad could this possibly be am i fishing in the water or magma only 22 virtual boy games and two of them just had to be bowling [Music] what is this sound design why is this like the nicest pause screen of all time it's probably the best looking virtual boy paw screen out of the three musics none of them are the classic tetris theme although music c is pretty catchy i know tetris was still newish back then but i can't even hard drop a horror game on the virtual boy is extremely ambitious and while it's impressive for the time there is nothing scary about it good luck getting to the true ending by the way you have to play the game without using a password without dying even once and you gotta do it really fast all i can think of right now is super glove ball in the nes look i got nothing else fellas there is nothing interesting about this game i'm sorry just nothing i'm not even gonna pretend to understand how sd gundam dimension war works so yeah one more game to go ah yes space invaders finally i can play this one in true virtual reality the 3d space invaders is literally just space invaders at an awkward angle yep i just played all 22 virtual boy games and you want to know what i actually liked a few of them wario land jack bros teleroboxer ins mouth would all actually be kind of cool to see remastered in the modern era but this is the virtual boy and it will continue to fade into obscurity until our own sun will turn red in 5 billion years but anyway thanks for watching [Music] you
