I’m not so sure Nintento wants to bury everything about VB.
The cameos of VB in a lot of recent Nintendo games prove it.
I think VB is becoming a legend, and Nintendo likes this.
The only thing they try to forget and to hide is the VB flop… better say it was a rare and mysterious legend, no?
So… i don’t think it’s impossible to find VB games on Virtual Console.
I’m quite sure Nintendo will do something for the VB.
I think someday we will find on a toy shop a budget small version of Virtual Boy, something like Tiger Elettronics “R-Zone”… with built in all of the VB games.
Now we can find the Plug&Play of Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter…
Nintendo did it making a small version of some Game&Watch.
I think the technology of VB can be now easily “compressed” on a much less expensive toy…
What a dream!!!
