@Splodge @Damo Not just Ebisu, practically the entire Goemon team left Konami to work at Good-Feel including their former in-house composer, Tomoya Tomita.
In my experience, the Virtual Boy is a very durable console. The only shortcoming is with the LED displays; Nintendo used glue on the ribbon cables instead of a solder, so they often need a bit of a touch-up.
@wonderclassic I know right, I wonder where in the actual hell Glen Fox got this info from. The VB might cause headaches (not an issue for me personally), and has a few other problems. However, there is absolutely no risk of brain damage whatsoever.
Although, similar to the 3D on the 3DS, there is a risk of eye damage for children under the age of 7 or so (since their eyes haven't fully developed yet). Even then, this is only for people who are playing the console on an uneven surface, which is also pretty unlikely considering that the VB has to be played on a tabletop.
@Moroboshi876 @Glowsquid @LeftyGreenMario @LinkTheLefty Really appreciate everyone's understanding on the matter; quite a bit more insightful than the article these comments are written on.
@kozaihod I agree, it was somewhat underwhelming, and didn't really dig up any new info on the history of the series. As a quick overview/review of the entire series it was alright, just not as historical as a video called "The Complete History" should have been.

Just finished playing this a few days ago; a wonderful game I heartily recommend.

Re: Random: Game Freak Had Plans For A Virtual Boy Title But Never Got Around To Making It
@KingMike They had a couple, like Quinty and Pulseman, but they definitely wouldn't have made a Pokemon game for it.

Didn't NL review this game before? (I mean who hasn't lol)

Re: Here Are Your Nintendo Switch Online NES Games For The Month Of June

Re: Feature: The Game Boy's Biggest Rival Gets Revived By The Modding Community
I'm a bit surprised that NL is just now writing about the McWill mod.
Re: The Detective Pikachu Movie Reviews Are In, And It's Actually Pretty Mixed
To be fair, most gamers likely don't have a good understanding of how quality cinematography is done.
In other words, the movie should be able to stand on it's own merit, without completely relying on CG Pokémon.

This looks fun!

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Has Reportedly Axed Its Quality Of Life Department
To be fair, the Switch's UI is also not very "Nintendo-esque".

@Liam_Doolan
Typo:
Inchidant-R -> Ichidant-R

Re: Scary Retro RPG World Of Horror Is Set To Crawl Onto Switch Next Year
@Wraggadam1 Yeah, the creator of this game said he made it with Ito's style in mind.
Re: Scary Retro RPG World Of Horror Is Set To Crawl Onto Switch Next Year
I started playing the demo of this on PC a couple days ago; simple but addictive best describes it, yet I'll keep this off my Switch.
