The Virtual Boy is Nintendo's one hardware failure... but it was a pretty big one. About fifteen games were released for it in the US. Ouch. Why did it fail? The red and black graphics, the headaches, the fact that people never were convinced that VR was the right way to go... and it never had a 'system seller' game, really... it just didn't work. Oh well. I only used one a little, but it sure was different... I wanted one a little bit, but never got around to it and then it vanished.
