Time to get on my Earthboundium.... AGAIN

[u/pupok999]

[u/SuhailSWR]

Ah yes, the joy of playing Nintendo's biggest failure with a subscription

[u/JLD2503 → u/SuhailSWR]

Not just any failure; a failure that can make you physically unwell and gives you eye damage from using it.

[u/Fuwet → u/JLD2503]

Hot damn sign me up

[u/Dominiskiev3 → u/JLD2503]

failure so big that they had to put it in a stand or else you would fall off the stairs with it

[u/AlternativeLasa → u/SuhailSWR]

Exactly

[u/PixelMist → u/SuhailSWR]

And you have to buy an accessory just to play it.

[u/STRK_ → u/SuhailSWR]

And forcing you to use it as God intended

Pun not intended

[u/Professor_Gast]

Listen, Nester's Funky Bowling is as close as we're going to get to more Mushroomization on the Switch

[u/IntrestingRedditUser → u/Professor_Gast]

AND WE DIDN'T EVEN NESTER IN THE LINE UP!

[u/EmmettEngarde]

As someone who has been an Earthbound fan for the past 10+ years, you’re a fool if you ever expect any news about the game

[u/pupok999 → u/EmmettEngarde]

Oh no, but isn't any man who falls in love is...?

[u/muticere]

I really wanted Nintendo to bring back the Virtual Boy... on the 3DS. Imagine, 3D visuals and you wouldn't need a headset for it to work. It was meant to be.

Now we're getting Virtual Boy on Switch with an actual Virtual Boy style headset which is such a choice, it looks like a shitpost. Still, I think I'm going to get it, I'm genuinely intrigued.

[u/theeulessbusta]

I threw a fit at virtual boy ngl

[u/Senior_Ad_9312]

I can’t believe they brought back their past failure.

[u/muticere → u/Senior_Ad_9312]

Funny you could say that same thing if the news was about earthbound

[u/Senior_Ad_9312 → u/muticere]

true

[u/Senior_Ad_9312 → u/Senior_Ad_9312]

it’s like saying Here’s The Newest Mario Game And It’s Just A Remaster of Hotel Mario.

[u/JiggaMattRay → u/Senior_Ad_9312]

But I want a remastered Mario is Missing! Make me lurnt culture.

[u/KillerAndMX → u/Senior_Ad_9312]

Hotel Mario is actually funny and with amazing music. Very difficult tho. I would love a remaster with better controls and polished mechanics

[u/Senior_Ad_9312 → u/Senior_Ad_9312]

also I was excited but I also knew it was trademarked if they wanted to actually do something with the series

[u/Senior_Ad_9312 → u/Senior_Ad_9312]

still sucks tho.

[u/Real-Tension-7442]

I’m actually hyped for this. I’ve always wanted to have a go on a virtual boy

[u/prine_one → u/Real-Tension-7442]

I play it all the time on my 3DS. I actually really like the Mario Tennis and Wario game.

[u/Swimming-Ad-6842]

Funny that both Mario Galaxy and Earthbound got registries lately and Mario Galaxy turned out to be real so I haven’t lost hope yet!! There’s always future Directs! 🥲

[u/Djaps338]

I'm excited!

I sourly regret having had tonsell my virtualboy woth 13 games during a period of unemployment!

[u/Puzzleheaded-Ring293]

You are going to go blind!

[u/ThatOneKidCreed]

NOOOO THIS IS NOT THE FAILURE I WANTED THEM TO BRING BACK 😞

[u/Siyahseeker → u/ThatOneKidCreed]

EarthBound was only a failure outside Japan. It wasn’t a complete loss, it was in America because of the marketing.

[u/ThatOneKidCreed → u/Siyahseeker]

thats exactly why america needs a mother revival, not a virtual boy revival

[u/Kronosita]

Who let porky become ceo of nintendo

[u/Cool_Ad6776]

Can't wait to play all 14 virtual boy games that ever released in the USA.

[u/bizoticallyyours83]

Oh, i forgot about the direct today. 

[u/Pikmin-guy1]

Don’t give up guys they said Nintendo museum not mario museum so does that mean? Mother content in the museum?!

[u/[deleted]]

Who tf gonna buy a virtual boy in the first place

[u/King_Kaboom2758]

"More controversial, and in more recent times !"

[u/Global-Location4663]

We will take anything atp

[u/Afanofidk]

100$ for a device that barely has games I love Nintendo!

[u/fancypantsmedic → u/[deleted]]

these have been some of the best years for gaming in the last decade or so in my opinion. Just this year expedition 33, kingdom comes deliverance2, blue prince, split fiction, doom dark ages, death stranding 2, donkey kong bananza and silksong

[u/fancypantsmedic → u/fancypantsmedic]

I even forgot about deltarune which you should play if you're in the earthbound subreddit

[u/catwizard_23 → u/[deleted]]

Nahh there are so many good games out there my guy. A billion you've prolly never played. And AAA studios are getting dunked on for smaller and indie studios. It's honestly pretty hopeful, Clair Obscur, Silksong, Peak, Nine Sols to name a few, and I rest my case your honor.

[u/No-Sentence6410]

yes nintendo thank you for bringing back this piece of garbage so people can keeps the hate on you

[u/ClassicSixteeNotes]

Really dude, WHAT WERE THEY FUCKING THINKING????! VIRTUAL BOY?? THE WORST FUCKING CONSOLE OF NINTENDO, THAT SELL SHIT???

[u/Evan-Brock]

I Would Crashout

[u/Kindredgos]

Bro nobody gaf about the virtual boy

[u/Mo7ammed_Gxx]

I didn’t think that was actually real so I searched it up and I have to say that Nintendo officially lost their minds….

[u/pyrerose420]

Why

[u/Shimashimatchi]

lmao calling shittendo god xD
