Nintendo was the first with the Virtual Boy, but the technology wasn't there.

 

 

But now?

 

Imagine looking down at the worlds in the cockpit of an Arwing

 

Imagine looking up and seeing the Blue Shell circling your head

 

Imagine glancing to you left and seeing a ghost leer at you

 

Imagine getting face-to-face with Ganon himself

 

 

This is almost possible. We can almost touch the worlds we've played in our whole lives.

 

Are you ready?

 

 

Do you want it?

 

 

I know I do.

Nope. VR like 3D is a passing fad that gets heavily pushed every 20 years praised as the next biggest thing then goes away. Time and time again consumers prove they hate wearing stuff on their face for long periods of time. Then people like me with the health risks who can't do 3D or VR for more than a minute without severe headaches or worse like siezures or vomiting,heart attacks and more(I have heart issues and 3D bothers me).  Never take off as long as you have to wear something. People also don't like messing up hair. Sounds trivial but it's a factor when spending hundreds. A TV anyone can enjoy. You have to buy a new headset per person to enjoy the game with you. Same problem that helped kill 3D TV's.

 

VR was huge in the 90's pushed to the point we had cafe's like a coffee shop but only served VR. People forgot all about VR once better looking games came out like PS1 and N64 and such. Once more UHD gaming is more avail VR will be a fart in the wind again.

 

VR is crap. 3D is crap.

4K TV's are yummy.


To clarify Nintendo never was in VR at all. Virtual Boy despite the name was just 3D goggles for 3D games not VR.

I'd love to see it, but I think we're still not quite there, technology-wise.

I think that's too innovative, I know they like to experiment with that sort of technology but it's a too advanced.

I think Nintendo should just wait and see what happens with VR. It could be a game changer. It could end up being a temporary fad like motion controls.
