Description Virtual Boy, hurting your eyes since 1995!
Okay, okay, the screen really isn't this bad. But once your eyes and head start to hurt, it kind of is. Ugh, it pains me to imagine any game, good or bad, being on the Virtual Boy.

i think it would have been interesting to play Majora's Mask on VB, by the way this isnt a portable system, its a table top system. Major difference there people, Nintendo just messed up its advertising really.

I've only been here 10 seconds and it's giving me a headache. Was the VB this bad? It never got a UK release so I've never used one.

This is a little exaggerated, but the screen really would cause you pain ant blurry vision after a while. The 3D depth part actually worked wonderfully, it's the limited palette of red and black that ruined everything. Now if they had a green or blue monochrome display, things could have turned out differently.

From looking at the design, it seems that it would be hard to find a comfortable position to play in.

Yep, it was very uncomfortable! The rubbery/foamy eye piece portion didn't really fit anyone's face.

It's a shame he's departed now. Have you heard those silly rumors that Nintendo hired the yakuza to do him in?

EpicBlueBomber In reply to BLUEamnesiac [2012-06-17 18:00:35 +0000 UTC]

No, but that sounds stupid. Or at least the car accident story seemed certain to be an accident when I first heard it.

BLUEamnesiac In reply to EpicBlueBomber [2012-06-17 18:02:00 +0000 UTC]

It was obviously an accident. But those conspiracy nuts never cease to amuse.

EpicBlueBomber In reply to BLUEamnesiac [2012-06-17 18:03:23 +0000 UTC]

And the whole yakuza theory seems even less believable when you consider that in the accident, the others involved were seriously injured (but didn't die) as well.

Yep. I haven't met anyone that believes the story yet, but it keeps circulating back to me from time to time. Sort of like old chain letters.

Think about this: what if this game actually debuted on the virtual boy? What a great hit it would have been...

BLUEamnesiac In reply to Sherval [2012-06-17 15:28:56 +0000 UTC]

It would have been great if the system had more than one good game Wario Land was decent. But even the best game couldn't save a system that causes a persons eyes to strain/hurt.

Not sure, haven't been keeping up with Bleach much to be honest. I would imagine so, though I wonder if he looks any different like Ichigo does thanks to the Fullbring?

BLUEamnesiac In reply to Wyote [2012-06-19 22:52:15 +0000 UTC]

He no longer has his fullbring powers... that we're aware of. And his weapon and appearance is different now. To complicate things, the anime ended and the final arc is limited to the manga.

Wyote In reply to BLUEamnesiac [2012-06-20 01:29:34 +0000 UTC]

I know he lost the fullbring, but I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that one of the characters theorized that remnants of his fullbring caused the change in appearance to his shinigami form.

BLUEamnesiac In reply to Wyote [2012-06-20 17:58:55 +0000 UTC]

Hard to say really, but it did alter his powers at the very least. Right now, he's the only one that we know of that can't have his bankai stolen by the enemy.

There's someone stealing bankais? Is this like the Muramasa filler arc?

Not to mention long. Me and a few buddies were practically crying tears of joy that it was over, and then we find out about the sword beasts. That enraged yell of pain and fury you heard a few weeks ago? That was us.

BLUEamnesiac In reply to Wyote [2012-06-21 04:59:07 +0000 UTC]

I really wish anime didn't resort to filler. It wouldn't kill them to take a mid-season break like they do over here in the West. A little recharge could be a good thing.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Wyote In reply to BLUEamnesiac [2012-06-22 01:09:42 +0000 UTC]

Mid season breaks can be just as annoying sometimes, especially when the breaks are seasons or even an entire year or more long. And then I really get mad when I find out new episodes had been completed even before the "break" began, and already aired in other countries a year ago, when the show is made here! So I probably prefer filler, as there are some good arcs, some just last to long, and I really don't like the filler arcs in the middle of an already in progress canon arc like they've done upteen million times already while we should be enjoying Hueco Mundo.

BLUEamnesiac In reply to Wyote [2012-06-22 21:29:40 +0000 UTC]

AH, that can be annoying. Breaks usually last a month or two at most here and nowadays they put in a short series to bridge the gap. Like recently, NBC treated us to Awake. That was an incredibly fun show. O.o

Wyote In reply to BLUEamnesiac [2012-06-23 03:36:42 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, but that's just for shows on basic tv networks like NBC, CBS, and ABC, though some of them have had long breaks to(I'm looking at you Heroes, before you got cancelled), or basic cable channels like A&E or USA. But some shows, mainly stuff aimed more towards children but I still watch because hey, it's Batman, or Spider-Man, or Avatar(Avatar is awesome), they end up taking these huge breaks, and several of them have had an entire season completed but they never aired here but they aired it in other countries. Batman Brave and the Bold and Spectacular Spider-Man both did this.

From what I saw when I was able to catch it, Awake was a pretty nice show.

I really wish Heroes didn't get canned, but I guess it's better than watching the story degrade. :/ And the first three seasons were so awesome! And point well taken, though I rarely watch TV with the exception of local news and some prime time shows. Most of the time I'll just stream something on demand because I prefer watching older shows.

My internet's not good enough to stream stuff, so I'm stuck with whatever's on, or what's saved to the DVR.

I at least hope you aren't limtied to old-school dialup. Though I can see how some DSL services aren't much better. :/
Tech sure has come a long way to our convenience though. I remember the first DVR's costing over a grand a piece. But now they're really cheap and sometimes come free with services.

Wyote In reply to BLUEamnesiac [2012-06-30 17:24:29 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I have satelite internet, and depending on the weather it can be as bad as dialup. Surprisingly, sunny days are worse than cloudy, my friend said something about the heat scewing up the signal.

Yeah, my DVR came free when we signed up with Dish Network, though I don't know if it was a promotional thing or something.

Oh man, I remember hearing about how hard it was to even stream internet radio or MP3's with satellite around Y2K, that's rough. If only wireless/cellular carriers weren't so greedy, then maybe that would be a better option in most places.
