Fixed it. Virtual Boy failed because of marketing. If you just called things what they fucking are, it would have sold better. Nobody is gonna buy a game they’ve never heard of like Red Alarm or Telaroboxer, but they’ll buy a Star Fox or Punch-Out! game. If Nintendo cleaned up the library of this console, it could have worked.

Imagine a virtual boy with
>Mario Clash
>Mario Tennis
>Wario Land
>Tetris
>Star Fox
>Punch-Out!
>F-Zero

That’s a much better lineup of launch titles. Face Ball could easily have been used as a prototype for a Virtual Boy port of Doom. You could literally call it “Virtual Doom” and it would print money. Especially in 1995.

God I wish I was on Nintendo’s marketing team in 1995. How did they fuck it up this bad?
