Adventures in the 3rd Dimension is a YouTube series I’m making where I review every released game for the Virtual Boy and give my honest opinion on it. I have a very weird soft spot for the system (as do all of you 😀 ) and wanted others to see more than just an angry, hateful review of the games and system. Eventually I’d like to cover homebrew titles and other things people may not have known about.

PlanetVB user Dreammary helped name the series when I initially started and had no name for it yet.

I was only able to figure out SD Gundam once I received the english reproduction. It’s pretty fun because of the changing perspective. I wish it would have had regular RPG exploration aspects where maybe you go to a planet and buy parts or search out parts on quests to repair your Gundam, then meet people and challenge them.

I hope the english patch makes a difference for me. I’ve only tried the Japanese version very briefly and I thought my head was gonna explode. lol

It’s a decent game, it just screams for more features (upgradable armor, different weapons, and several enemies all at once would be spectacular).

SD Gundam Dimensions War

Virtual Boy Wario Land

The (official) series is finally complete now! Time to look into prototypes and homebrew now 😉

Bound High! and Niko-Chan Battle are fantastic second year games and I’m glad that we eventually got them.

Those are gonna be some of the first games I cover when I move to the next series: “Return to the 3rd Dimension”. That way there’s a distinct way to separate the homebrew and prototypes from the other VB game stuff I did.

I need to work on getting what homebrew games I can physically. I like showing off the cart and artwork in each video. I can always use the Flash Boy + (and I intend to) but for ones that I can have physical versions of, I’d love that.
