Nintendo's Virtual Boy app is now available to download on Switch and Switch 2 as part of its Nintendo Classics offering. You'll need to have a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership to access the launch titles, and unlike Nintendo's other retro emulators, this one also requires a dedicated accessory.As a reminder, the Virtual Boy was a portable tabletop system released in 1995, and the first console capable of rendering stereoscopic 3D graphics. It had a facemask with a monochrome red display built onto a bipod, so rather than wearing it like a modern VR headset, you had to awkwardly push your face towards it to play games.
