Forums - Website Topics - Virtual Boy Hardware Shipment Figures

I was reviewing the hardware shipment numbers for each system and noticed that the figures for the Virtual Boy seem to be absent. Would it be possible to obtain these numbers and display them on this site?



I second this!

Those are numbers I've searched for long and hard. They're numbers that I've come to doubt exist. Some days I'm not even sure if there was a Virtual Boy. Oh sure I think I got one for Christmas. I seem to recall Mario Tennis and Red Alert. But can I be sure of that? no. No I think this Virtual Boy you speak of was just a figment of your imagination. No really, I don't think Nintendo ever released the numbers since...you know... It was one of the greatest failures in videogame history



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

do you know what the final numbers were for it? EDIT: Produced, sold... it dont matter...

The total it's right. I see it in a site that talk of Virtual boy but i doubt that others can reach 140K units because VB was laucnhed only in North America and Japan ...
