    I can't wait, Nintendo is making a press release tomorrow to confirm this news. Don't worry, I'm 100% sure that this is true, because the site I got the news from is the same site I get my upcoming Virtual Console releases from.

    PROOF: http://www.vc-reviews.com/news/2008/03/virtual_boy_confirmed_for_virtual_console

    JP, you can move this to the Nintendo Forum if you would like.

    Say what you want about the Virtual Boy, I love it no matter what! :P

    What the heck's the point? Why would Nintendo bring something that caused creator Gunpei Yokoi himself to leave the company, to make the Bandai Wonderswan a year later, and die in a car crash a year after that? They should've just left it alone.

    On the other hand, this might be the only way for us to play VB Wario Land these days...

    So you can't have fun with a system just because of it's history? >>; Puh-lease. I know if Sonic X-treme is ever released in some way I'd have fun with it.

    Anyways, that's awesome! I only have four Virtual Boy games, so it might be useful. Although I don't get how it's gonna work, not really the same experience if you don't put your head through the goggles. :/ It'd be kind of weird playing an all red-and-black game on a regular TV.
    Game... ovahhhhhhhhh!!!

    There's 3D Tetris, Galactic Pinball, Golf, Jack Bros., Mario Clash, Mario's Tennis, Nester's Funky Bowling, Panic Bomber, Red Alarm, Teleroboxer, Vertical Force, Virtual League Baseball, Warioland, and Waterworld. That's a list of all the VB games released in the U.S. As far as putting them on the VC, I don't know how they're going to pull that off. But it does sound like an interesting idea.

    According to the announcement, playing Virtual Boy games on the Virtual Console will have two options:

    1. Play how they are without a 3D effect.
    2. Turn on an option to keep the 3D effect, but you have to use 3D glasses.

    What the? If they did add Virtual Boy to Virtual Console, they better add color!
    What's next? Game Boy games to the VC? (I heard that rumor too)

    If they did Game Boy, that would be cool if you could do linking features over Wi-Fi!

    I think this is an April Fools joke. The article stated "In a press release to be announced tomorrow." On April 1st. I bet this IS an April Fools joke.

    Speaking of the Virtual Boy, I am almost done with my Virtual Boy article. Hopefully, I'll be done with it by Friday.

    Yeah, an April Fools joke, I don't think Nintendo would release Virtual Boy, even if they did, how many games would they release on there and how would it be a good port?
