In the world of gaming-consoles-that-I-don’t-dream-games-were-released-on the Virtual Boy is pretty much at the top of the list. Or so I thought, until these clever Virtual Boy demakes popped up over atPixel Jointin honor of the 15th anniversary of the console’s Japanese launch.

I think the Virtual Boy version ofMetroid Primeis by far my favorite of the entries, but theMonkey Islandone is full-on cool, as well. I would have dug theMega Manon VB as well; 3D robot masters could get seriously epic. It’s too bad the failure of the Virtual Boy will mean we willneversee a portable 3D system again.
