    I couldn’t say. From what I’ve heard, slightly worse; I think people prefer not having the red-blue-fighting thing in their eyes. The best way to play virtualboy right now is on a hacked 3DS with its glasses-less 3D display.

    If you have one you should try it out; its suprisingly easy to hack, or rather, the hack process is surprisingly well-documented!

    if anyone’s curious: that’s a ps4 controller with a gold buttons mod from eXtremeRate and a usb-c mod from Casual Coders on Tindie, along with some ps4 controller cell phone mount from amazon.

    I use a 6-inch usb-c cable to connect the controller to my phone, and it registers with Retroarch Android, which is running a simulation of VirtualBoy Bowling. In the emulator settings you can enable red/blue anaglyph mode, which works with these paper 3D glasses.
