Kind of a lighthearted topic maybe, but I’m playing through WLVB for the first time ever, and I am amazed at how good it is and how well it holds up. All of the powerups, the level designs, the fluidity of the controls, of course the 3D — it hangs so so well together, and it’s got me desperately wanting to play another one of these after I finish this one. Do any if his few platforming adventures equal this one (or better) in your opinion?
Actually I think VB Wario Land is the best game in the series. With Wario Land 2 the Wario series changed from “beat the stage while finding secrets and coins” to “run around a bigger stage looking for secrets and coins and you can’t die, just get inconvenienced” which I didn’t think was as good as before. The next best game in the series is Super Mario Land 3 Wario Land on Gameboy, which is still a regular platformer.
Of the later more exploration-based games, Wario Land 4 on GBA and Wario Land Shake Dimension on Wii are both pretty good though, but not close to Virtual Boy Wario Land in my opinion.

Does anyone know how many of these signs are known to exists?
Also thank you for the various compliments.
I couldn’t come up with a figure, but I’m pretty sure that no more than 1 or 2 show up online for sale or auction per year, so it shows up about as rarely or even more rarely than Virtual Bowling.
It’d be hard to put a price on them, too, given their rarity as well as the demand for them among collectors.
I won’t be selling mine anytime soon, just curious on information about it.
MetalJesusRocks usually gives every game and system a fair chance and doesn’t go with what everyone says and makes his own decision. That’s one of the reasons I like his videos. I knew he wouldn’t love the system but at least he thought was interesting and didn’t poo-poo it like 99% of people do. Its also nice whenever he brings Kelsey along, she’s usually has pretty good opinion about a lot of systems and of course she’s adorable.
