Virtual Boy game question
TDIRunner:
Is there any type of Virtual Boy emulation? If so, how would that work?
I'm not huge on emulation, but the Virtual Boy is one of those systems where I just don't think I can justify the the investment. However, I would like to play the games.
Arseen:
Yeah there are emulators.
I think there are 2 output options: 2D in selected color and 3D in blue/red with classes.

Oh man. I don't want to have to take a class just to play a game. :P
Oh wait, glasses. Yes, that makes sense. ;D I might have to look into that.

Ahhh the Virtual Boy. My almost-complete set.
Confirming, 14 legit NTSC-U releases. Of which I have 13. DAMN YOU, JACK BROS! YOU WILL BE MINE SOME DAY! ;) There's also a handful of repros - Faceball (2 versions, iirc), Dragon Hopper, Bound High... there was recently a port of SFII to the VB, and I think Uncle Tusk is going to try to make that into a repro. Plus "2" flash carts (really just 1 that got upgraded) floating around. And then there's the Japanese releases, which if you're not so good with the moon language and aren't feeling like you must have everything (ahem Space Invaders), VTetris is probably the only really important one to get -- it's different from 3D Tetris, which was the US release.
Waterworld is also kinda pricey for the system, but significantly less so than Jack Bros.
