Well, the eye thing doesnt bother me for one reason. As a kid, I read the warning on the side of a pair of 
3D glasses that said "Do not stare directly into light", so I naturaly put them on and stared at a light bulb. 
I now have hues of red and blue permanently in my eyes. Another thing I have to say, Virtual bowling and 
VTetris used to be rentable at Blockbuster video when the system was releases, and I swear I saw the 
bowling game as "Nesters Funky bowl" at a Nobody beats the Wiz the christmas of the Virtual Boys release...

I got a Virtual Boy for my birthday for $29.99.  I later bought Red Alarm and almost bought several other 
games for only $9.99 each.  It was a great deal, but difficult to take with you and Boy! did it make me 
dizzy.  Mario Tennis was difficult to look at, but Red Alarm made me come close to throwing up.  I sold 
the system and games a month later for $13 at a yard sale.  It is a neat collector's item, but uhhh.....I'll 
never play one again.....uhhhhh....

Virtual Boy is a seriously f*cked-up system. First of all, after you play it for about a half hour, any thing red 
or black REALLY stands out. 2. there's only about 20 games, wich all suck ass and finaly, nintendo just 
plain sucks.thanx for lettin' me fume.

 I have one, its stand, where the legs come together busted on me it's ducked taped together now, but works great. 
I only have to games the boxing one and the tennis one. I think that the boxing one is by far the best game for it. 
I think that they should come out with a color one. It has the best sound, makes it sound as if you are right there 
in the game I like it and it hasn't hurt me. Also if you read the instructions on it, they tell you to take a rest from 
it and let your eyes rest if you didn't thats your problem, not theres

This system rocks!  I can't wait until the third party hobbist programmers release some games.  I 
have no doubt that this system will one day be recognized by collectors.  You better get one while 
you can.  If you got some lying around and you hate them drop me a line.  I'll buy any and all that 
come past me if the price is right.

I purchased a Virtual Boy system for $29.99 at Giant Eagle three years ago.  I must say that this little 
toy is a heck of alot of fun to play (my favorite game was Wario Land,) the only problem with this system 
was it's price.  If Nintendo would have dropped the price to about $79.99, got their butts to work on some 
great and intricately designed games, and maybe have included a game with the system, then this toy 
would have been more popular.  After all, the Game Boy had only two colors and it lasted for over 9 years!

The Nintendo Virtual Boy was released in 1995. It is a 32 bit system and displays in only one color (red). 
It is the only cartridge based VR 
systems and can be found for a price under $30.

I have a Virtual Boy and almost all the games that came out for it.
I have played it extensively for over an hour at a time, I have suffered no vision impairment and neither have my 
kids who have played it.
Its a very powerful little system that was sadly abandonded by Nintendo due to poor reception by consumers. 
At a price of 199.99 it was almost dead as soon as it hit the store shelves.
Damaging to the eyes? Nope. 
Fun to play? yep.

I have one of these and Wario Land is an awsome game!  Too bad every other game made for it blows . . .

A good fact to remember about virtual boy is that it's a terrible system.  Seriously.  Not only is it horribly 
damaging to the eyes, it's extremely disorienting.  I have no idea how this passed marketing tests. 
Nintendo's first big mistake.

Did you know that Virtual boy's price dropped $50 in 1 week?  If you play Virtual Boy too long, it can 
damage your eyes and will make all red and black colors stand out
