For those unaware, Nintendo announced that they are releasing 14 Virtual Boy games on NSO Nintendo Classics - but you need to insert the Switch into a Virtual Boy peripheral to play them. So how much will they charge for it? https://youtu.be/Oc8qckEoKxk https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/3/3b151de9.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/1/1bde08ff.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/c/c3bbfa67.jpg --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran ...

$100 dollars for that is wild. You can't even own the games for it, have to pay for NSO. And they aren't even releasing all of the Virtual Boy games at once. They're going to trickle them out over time. JFC --- Steam/Xbox/PSN = NoxObscuras ... Copied to Clipboard!

On one hand it's cool in a way that they're making these games available in some form, especially Jack Bros. since that game is super expensive for the NA version. But $100 still seems like a little much considering those 14 games are probably all that will ever be released on NSO. --- "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose.

I assume they'll be manufactured in smaller batches and there will be people interested in them. The dumbest part imo is not just releasing all the games at once. They're going to make people who purchase it wait to get the best game (Wario)?? ... Copied to Clipboard!

$100 to play 14 games "to be released over time" that could totally have a non-stereoscopic mode so they can be played on regular displays (Virtual Boy emulators have had them for years now)? I knew the answer would be 'too much' but I didn't expect it to be this much too much. --- "Bothering people when they're shopping or going to work or whatever because you find them attractive makes you scum of the earth."
