News::Nintendo's 'Virtual Boy' HMD Could Get a New Game 19 Years After Discontinuation

ZeroTransform, an indie VR studio, is running a Kickstarter for Vanguard V, a slick action-arcade title for virtual reality. Far beyond the Kickstarter's goal of $198,000 is a stretch goal to develop a version of the game for Nintendo's 'Virtual Boy' head mounted display, nearly two decades after its discontinuation. After uncovering 'The VB Sacred Tech Scroll', a 95 page document that spills the secrets of the Virtual Boy's hardware/software interface, ZeroTransform's Tech Director says the studio is ready, willing, and able to create a version of Vanguard V that will run on genuine Virtual Boy hardware.
