| HyrulianScrolls said: I rememeber thinking back when Wii came out how perfect it would be if Nintendo focused on VR as their next gaming advance, since I knew even back then we were eventually headed there. But I think the Virtual Boy disaster scared them out of attempting anything there again, and now they're going to be beaten to the punch for mainstream VR it looks like. Huge missed opportunity for them imo, would have been a perfect marriage. |
The Virtual Boy definitely left a scar, no doubt. I think the budget issues would have prevented it in the end though. Nintendo wouldn't have wanted to spend whatever it cost and is costing Oculus. Ever since Iwata took over, the company has operated with a budget first mentality.
