Virtual Boy on Nintendo Switch

[BLUEVOODU]

This is pretty cool!  I wondered if this was going to happen.

The Virtual Boy is being added to Nintendo Online for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2!  This is coming February 17, 2026.

This will be cool and will be an accessible way to enjoy Virtual Boy ... although, if you haven't tried the Virtual Boy on an actual system, you are missing a bit lol.  It was a unique experience. 

However, you CAN add a Virtual Buy Accessory for $100 - yes...  a Virtual Boy Accessory which is a replica of the old Hardware!

Or you can do cardboard mode which is literal cardboard accessory that fits over your console and you view through it to your screen:

Personally, I'd want to skip cardboard mode and do the full accessory. Maybe the cardboard accessory would work well... I just don't see it translating well...?

What would be cool is if they added new games!  I'm not holding my breath for that... but how cool would that be?

I'm pumped for this.  What about you?  Thought, comments... post it up!
