The Virtual Boy is a 32-bit table-top video game console developed and manufactured by Nintendo.

Released in 1995, it was marketed as the first console capable of displaying stereoscopic 3D.

The player uses the console in a manner similar to a head-mounted display, placing their head against the eyepiece to see a red monochrome display.

The games use a parallax effect to create the illusion of depth.

By early 1996, Nintendo ceased distribution and game development releasing 22 games.

This “handheld” system is a true collector’s item, and a pioneer in terms of 3D headsets
