Greatly appreciated.

Good emulation, but I was hoping it would work with the new Virtual Boy accessory.

I downloaded this emulator because I got the Virtual Boy accessory and was hoping this would be a more permanent way to play VB games with it when the NSO servers shut down. Unfortunately this emulator dosent have the option to display both VB eyes next to each other and adjust them to fit the VB’s lenses. I’m still giving this emulator 3 stars because it’s still a really good 2D VN emulator and they can update it in the future to make it work with the accessory

Can I do something? Love to donate

A free working Virtual Boy Emulator

So originally in a Nintendo direct from last year they said virtual boys would be coming to the expansion pack service for switch and switch 2 owners alike so I wanted to get a taste for Virtual boy Wario Land and Mario Clash before I purchase the $100 virtual boy accessory for my switch 2 and this app did not disappoint. Virtual Boy Wario land is also a very fun game but didn’t finish it because I’m saving it for my switch 2 virtual boy experience.

Great App, Missing a Feature

I’m glad I found this emulator. I tested a few games and it runs very smoothly. However, I am a bit disappointed that there’s no Stereoscopic 3D/VR support as that’s what the original virtual boy was geared as. If that could be a future update, that would be awesome!

This feels great

This feels like Im playing virtual boy in 1995 but on the go! And I think a vr headset would be just feel like your playing virtual boy
