Runtime: 76 Minutes
We look back at the Virtual Boy, a tabletop portable video game console released by Nintendo in July 1995. As part of our discussion, we'll look at the history of the technology that went into creating it. We'll also talk about how it came to Nintendo, and how the console changed throughout the development process. Finally, we'll look again at the legacy of its creator, Gunpei Yokoi, and talk about how this system fits perfectly as part of his design philosophy, which is still a part of Nintendo today.
