Yeah but that was back in the day when they didn't have the power to actually deliver. The original VB had a life span of one year with 22 games. It died fast. With the tech we have today like PSVR, it'd actually stand a chance.
@@JamesDGoins I'm not talking about the Virtual Boy though? This whole joke video from IGN failed to take into account that the Switch is VR capable and like 15 games support VR on it. Zelda Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey, Captain Toad and Smash Ultimate all have official Nintendo made VR modes. Did everyone just forget lol
If the Switch had accurate gyroscopes this COULD actually work as a proper VR headset. Headaches and retina damage would probably still be inevitable though...
That's the reason why they didn't include a head strap on the original virtual boy because strapping it to your head would encourage you to keep it on too long
Got us again, Nintendo! 👉😀👉 Remember last year when Nintendo pranked us with having the Mario movie cast replace the video game actors in the games? Hilarious!
Wait this would kind of go hard though, imagine compatibility with mario kart home circuit, where you could see the whole course on the ground as you race around
Nintendo straight up trolling its fanbase with a false promise that they would actually develop gaming hardware that is actually considered standard of the time and not outdated😂
Somewhat related, but it would be awesome if we got a new version of photo dojo that allows you to manually trim the edges of sprites, custom amounts of sprites per animation, expanded movesets and more.
Considering they tried already with Labo VR, imagine if the switch 2 added actual VR support with an removable headset like this. Its a table and portable console already, if they added VR it would be awesome to have 3 in one.
Can't take anything seriously with today being April Fools lol - Would be hilarious if Nintendo actually did bring back the Virtual Boy tho
With all the bull$#@% I've had seen on Twitter lately, it's hard to believe anything anymore.
it says quite literally at the end "this is a joke, not a real product" lol
for real man xD
Nintendo switch should bring back the classic virtual boy games that would be so cool.
Damn........I forgot it's April 1st.........
The landlord giving free rent is where it’s very obviously an April fools joke.
What are you talking about??
0:49 OMG THE LUIGI DEATH STARE
He turned into Wario. 😂
Woooooooh!
It's back.
Officer: "do you have any idea how fast you were going?"
Me: "I'm using tilt controls!"
“They see me rollin…….”

Also simple Wii too

Open Road mario looks fun. The cops are just another obstacle to avoid
They’re the blue shell
Remind me of when people joked about Mario Kart Go aftet the succes of pokémon go
Mario Kart turns into GTA real quick
Sad
Nah It Turns Into NFS@@_bsmusic_
There were parts at the beginning which looked genuinely interesting
LM4 just vacuuming, they did Luigi dirty! Lol
We saw the outside perspective, inside the headset she was sucking up 1000’s of ghosts breaking new records!
The only gag missing is the the $4999 price tag.
Should have been €6940
The Mario Home Run is actually not a bad idea
Great idea.
Out of all of them that one would sell very well!
if nintendo's next console has ar stuff then this would be really cool
Genuinely could be a hint...
For a week it’d be popular.
All jokes aside this is actually a cool idea for a Nintendo product. Provided we get safe games for it
It literally IS a Nintendo product lol. It already happened.

Now that's the Virtual Boy experience.
With that screen resolution and device's weight?

ok cutting to just her vacuuming was genius!

This wouldn't be a virtual boy. It would be an Augmented Reality Boy. 😅
To be fair, the actual virtual boy wasn't virtual either, it was just 3D.
Eh. Tomato tomahto.
The fact that y’all acknowledged the Virtual Boy is insane
😂 almost forgot days date. Vid games announcements and news are going to be interesting today!
0:26 who is that guy?
The joke would work a bit better if Labo VR (literally a cheap cardboard box) didn't already happen, haha.
Seriously, did IGN just forget that this literally happened?
a Nintendo vr system would be a cool concept
Truly an apple vision moment
Nintendo VisionU
Right?
What?
Honestly this would be cool for VR games lol maybe not exclusive games tho
How would you see the world with no camera on the switch.....
Oh IGN you really got me with this one 😏

Thought this was real for a sec lol

0:07 anyone else hear the wii home button menu opening sound? or is it just me
If it didn’t say at the end it was a joke, it could’ve very well been an actual product, this is Nintendo after all
Not with the Nintendo Switch though.

CitraVr but nah Nintendo would ruin the fun with how their company is

this would actually be a pretty sick product lol. it's what mobile VR headset should strive to be, it would make the tech a lot more mainstream
Honestly that Mario Home Run would be incredible
And Zelda crossbow training to
We need a Nintendo take on the light gun genre and bring back Duck Hunt IP.
Wait this would kind of go hard though, imagine compatibility with mario kart home circuit, where you could see the whole course on the ground as you race around
That last bit with Mario kart was the icing to the cake... Excellently done 😂
Now there's gonna be an actual knockoff of this headstrap on WISH within 2 months
Luigi upgrading from Death Stare to full-on throat-cut gesture...
You got me. But it’s probably closer to what the next switch will look like then any other speculation
It would be blocky with the 720p display, not to mention the low refresh rate
Nintendo straight up trolling its fanbase with a false promise that they would actually develop gaming hardware that is actually considered standard of the time and not outdated😂

Not impossible though. Lens + camera in an attachment. Though it would be quite heavy and taxing on the neck.
The real joke is that you're getting a preview of what Nintendo has planned for the Virtual Switch Pro.
You know this possible if they make a attachment that connects where joycon gose and hard wire it through there
Honestly... This made me realize Nintendo could release a VirtualBoy collection on Switch, they already have the VR toycon
Wouldn't be surprised if Switch 2 had a VR/AR mode and attachment
Why isn’t this a real thing
Ik its a joke but they should bring the original virtual boy games as a screen mode for nso
Remember guys, it's April now
Remember that ROG Ally was also announced on April 1.
Nintendo is poking fun at how gimmicky they used to be/still are
This is how Nintendo gets reactions without actually saying this could be their next system to phish for reactions.
FINALLY
April fools
People who have AR Glasses : I'm four parallel universes ahead of you
It would probably genuinely sell better than PSVR2! 😅
Considering they tried already with Labo VR, imagine if the switch 2 added actual VR support with an removable headset like this. Its a table and portable console already, if they added VR it would be awesome to have 3 in one.

@@RTheu2109 you’re correct that the very thing that made Scar evil was his capacity to antagonize HIS OWN FAMILY of all individuals in the world.
Never thought that Nintendo Would get in on April Fools' joke.
Would have been funnier without the disclaimer at the end.
April 1 is the only day of the year when normal people lie and, for a change, politicians sometimes tell the truth.

strapping whole switch to face. this is hilarious.
