You think Nintendo should give another stab at virtual reality with virtual boy 2

I think they should the technology was not there at the time but now this is the best time for Nintendo to cash in on it

With a dedicated device? No. But a Labo VR 2...just without the cardboard....would be good.

I have absolutely zero interest in VR so, no.

VR and 3D stuff have been around forever, and each and every time they die out once the novelty behind the fad wears thin.

Companies keep on trying, for whatever reason. It's like the McRib of technology. McDonald's keeps on trying with that McRib, but who actually likes it.

Nintendo was perhaps smart, for making 3D optional on the 3DS. If the option to play 2D was not there, the 3DS would have tanked hard.

VR would involve head tracking and being able to look all around, which the VB didn't do. The VB was like looking at a 3DS screen. 3DS is the follow up to VB.

I would like Nintendo to do more VR though. If you are intersred in that I would suggest checking out Astro Bot Rescue Mission for PSVR. It does exactly what you would want.

Hell no!!!

@jaydan: The McRib is delicious, you shut yer mouth! It never "fails". McDonald's just keeps it in their back pocket as a promotional thing. A quick and easy way to bump up sales in areas that are lagging a bit. It works on me. Basically the only time I actually eat at McDonald's these days.

I don't think the VR market is big enough for Nintendo to jump in as well.

@judaspete: The McRib tastes like those cheap frozen TV dinners you buy at the grocery store.

Are you really getting offended over a McRib? Lol

@jaydan: You're not wrong, but it's also delicious. And yes, I am offended. How dare you!

😁

Nintendo may have the cult following i mean brand power to be more successful than Sony has been in the space.

But I don't see them going for it

Yes.

I think no strongly.

@Blueresident87: why not?? Meta, Sony have gotten in the VR business already. I don’t see why not??

McDonald's only brings the McRib around when they can score a lot of cheap pork. It's actually a bestseller.

God no... It would derail everything currently making them great.

Omg I'm getting attacked by the McRib defense force in this thread.

Whoever thought an analogy would make some of you so up in arms. I never said anyone can't enjoy their cheap McRib that's not even made of rib meat. Does not make it any less of a scarcity novelty item McDonald's uses to manufacture cheap demand. Lol

@judaspete: Agreed. McRib is indeed very delicious.

Heck no. I wouldn't purchase it if they did that. I've never played VR in my life and I don't want to. Too expensive and too few compatible games. Nintendo get by by being a cheaper alternative to gaming. Putting out a VR console doesn't address that. It would bomb.

You quite like, literally everything. So for you to call the McRib delicious is saying something.

Shuuuuu--we might as well just call this thread the McRib fan club or something.

@dracula_16: If you're worried about the cost then if you have the opportunity to just try it, it's worth it... It's really cool!

@jaydan: Funnily enough I don’t like VR, of which I stated so in this very thread. 😂

Anyways y'all enjoy your TV Dinner meat sandwich served fresh at the Golden arches.

@jaydan: You have no idea the sheer magnitude of worms inside this can you have just opened! So sayeth Judaspete! Self-anointed Arch Mage of the McRib fan club!

I Hereby declare this thread the official SW McRib thread, because no one cares about VR anyways!

There's something special about this TV dinner sandwich that's quite elusive and alluring when McDonalds gives it hot and not frozen.

Ode to the McRib: A Love Both Tender and Cheap

Oh, fleeting treasure wrapped in humble bun,

Your saucy splendor rivals the setting sun.

A slab of mystery, pressed and shaped with care,

No rib in sight, yet none can help but stare.

Barbecue nectar drips from every bite,

A tangy kiss beneath fluorescent light.

Pickles and onions, scant yet profound,

A symphony of flavors for mere dollars and pounds.

You come and go with the breeze of the fall,

A seasonal siren to the fast-food hall.

Not gourmet, not grand, not made to impress—

Yet in your simplicity, you bring happiness.

Oh McRib, sweet harbinger of delight,

Your cheap allure keeps us up at night.

A novelty, yes, but beloved just the same—

In the kingdom of value, you’ve staked your claim.

So here’s to you, sandwich of fleeting grace,

With sauce on my fingers and joy on my face.

For though your cost is laughably slight,

You fill our hearts with every bite.

That was a nerve, I guess.

Goddam

Works for me. Also, McRibs is nothing but junk food.

@davillain: Here's your rap song:

Yo, it's DaVillain in the buildin’,

Time to drop truth—hope y’all willin’.

They say the McRib back? Man, stop that!

That ain’t no meal, that’s a Big Mac mishap!

Roll up to the drive-thru, see the sign glow,

"McRib is back!"—here we go, oh no!

A boneless lie in a barbecue disguise,

Pressed-up pork tryna hypnotize!

That ain't no rib, that’s a science fair fail,

Shaped like a rack, but that texture’s a tale!

Drenched in a sauce tryna cover its shame,

But DaVillain ain't fooled by the fast food game!

McRib ain't real, nah, McRib ain't right,

A Frankenstein sandwich in the dead of the night!

Slap some sauce on it, call it gourmet?

Nah, keep that trash ten miles away!

Yo, let’s talk facts, y’all ready for that?

They bring it back seasonal—why is that?

Cuz that fake meat sittin’ in a deep-freeze tomb,

Thaw it out quick when they need to resume!

They play on nostalgia, they play on the hype,

But the truth still sizzlin’ like a grill in the night!

I want real ribs, I want real flame,

Not a mystery meat that should be ashamed!

(Yeah, yeah)—Don’t fall for the trap,

That’s scraps in a patty with a rib-lookin' cap!

They say it’s iconic, they say it’s a feast,

But DaVillain say that ain’t real meat!

McRib ain't real, nah, McRib ain't right,

A Frankenstein sandwich in the dead of the night!

Slap some sauce on it, call it gourmet?

Nah, keep that trash ten miles away!

So when they say, "The McRib is back!"

Turn ya head quick, don’t fall for the trap!

Cuz DaVillain don’t play with that processed thrill,

If I want real ribs, I’m gon’ hit the grill!

Mic drop. Exit drive-thru.

Yes, but use more cardboard this time, dammit

Seriously, did you people forget this happened already?

I would rather they not. AR will likely be a better experience for gaming than VR. Even then, I want AR to actually enhance my gaming experience. Not be a sloppy bandwagon that companies jump on for a quick buck.
