Review Virtual Boy Wario Land (Virtual Boy)
The Virtual Boy's best game?
It's hard to talk about the Virtual Boy without mentioning Virtual Boy Wario Land; the ill-fated system only experienced 22 games throughout its short lifespan and this lack of software has resulted in some VB games getting a better reputation than they deserve purely because there's so little else to play on the...

Every Virtual Boy game ranked by you
Nintendo is an odd company in many ways; deeply appealing and safe in some respects, but also able to swing for the fences and invest money and resources in the pursuit of pure novelty. Time and again it puts out products that no other platform holder would have dreamed of, and more often than not those...

Ahh, Wario, everyone's favourite garlic-loving, chaos-breeding antihero. A mirror to Mario — whom he frequently competes against — Wario has been gracing the Mario franchise since 1992 when he was the main villain in the game Boy classic Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins Since then, Wario has gone from strength...

Feature Meet The Virtual Boy Fan Making New Tech And Games For Nintendo's Console Curio
"I thought, 'Hey, I can probably do that'"
As the reputed black sheep of the Nintendo console family, one might think 1995’s Virtual Boy to be the last piece of hardware capable of garnering an enthusiast following today. Discontinued after less than a year on the market and never released in Europe, the elusive red-and-black headset is remembered...
Talking Point If Nintendo Released Them, Would You Play Virtual Boy Games Today?
Virtually unheard of
Nintendo's Virtual Boy was an inarguably strange system, although mentioning its name can elicit markedly different responses. To many, the little tabletop non-HMD is little more than a punchline; a hilarious blink-and-you'll-miss-it example of Nintendo toying with an idea that was sabotaged from the off by hopelessly inadequate...

About The Game
"I, Wario, have an interesting story to tell. One day during my vacation in the Awazon river basin, I landed my trusty seaplane, Bulldog, and decide to relax in the shadow of the beautiful Aldegara Waterfall. While basking in the sun, I spied some strange creatures with masks entering the waterfall. This piqued my interest!
I hurried over and ofllowed them into the waterfall. Behind the falls there was a large cave, and in the back of the cave … there was a vault filled with a glorious mountain of treasure!!
Some of the masked creatures jumped me, but I quickly overcame them. "This treasure is all mine now!", I thought to myself and rushed in to collect the loot. Suddenly, the floor collapsed and I fell!
I found myself deep within the Earth! I was quite angry and vowed revenge on these creatures, I will get their treasure!!!"

This probably the best VB game out there and not too hard to find like some of the system's rarer games. Has awesome graphics, fun bosses, fun levels, and it's addicting. The 3D in this game is some of the best the system has to offer. Basically if you have a Virtual Boy you need this game! No question about that.
I wish Nintendo would produce a full color version of this game for the DS.
This game looks fun, I don't think it could beat Wario Land 4 though.
really well balanced game. easy and fun to play. passing from one level of depth to the other. really cool jokes and wario animations. i played this game so much that probably i would n´t get it again in a some kind of port.
Please review this game. I played it back in the 90s when I was in high school, even if only for about 15-30 minutes. The few minutes I played on it were awesomeness, though
I hope the VB games come to the 3DS VC, if they do this will be the first title I get.
Too bad it was not on the GBA. It would sold like hot cakes on the Gameboy
