There is absolutely no reason why they can't do that. It would make the consoles a bit bigger because they would need to add additional hardware though.But that is an extremely small price to pay for something so awesome.

No kidding. Nintendo uses their knowledge of weird stuff to make it and microsoft makes the graphics. And,they work together to make the games. It would be awesome.

Nintendo used to be a hard-core gamers rejoice. Now they care to casual gamers. To be honest, Nintendo isn't as good as they used to be. They haven't been caring enough to the good old hard-core gamers. This is why i don't hardly play my Wii. But i think, because Microsoft is the king of caring to hard-core gamers, that they could get Nintendo to make more hard core games.

...are you kidding me? Strapping a big honking thing onto your head (which would be the difference between a Virtual Boy and the DS) is anything but portable friendly.. think about that for a minute. I don't see people getting anything out of the Virtual Boy that's all that worth it.

There were reasons that it failed, other than the technological nightmare that it was.

first point agreed, second point dont make me laugh.
yes ninty was for real gamers. no xbox isnt.

i seriously want to know of these "hard core gamer" games that xbox supposedly has, try and convince me please, i want to beleive gaming isnt dead or dying.
because all i see is a "family" console (wii), a console for jocks/rapper losers (360), and a console that is a shadow of its big brother (ps3).
and even is 360 does have something, its design flaws shatter the illusion anyway.

That's a rather glib look at the entire issue though, because your perceptions of the three systems seem to be very thrown off... putting the three consoles into a very, very small area of grouping is cutting out a MASSIVE percentage of gamers, ESPECIALLY with the comments there about the 360 which don't seem to be warranted in the least bit.

ok, well I wont discuss this here anymore since its way off topic now (my fault when i rant, i dont hold back), lets just say the current state of "gaming" has me very jaded.

virtual boy. i want to say yes because it might make nintendo relise what made them great in the past and make them go back to that.
i want to say no because i fear they'll mess it up.

and i spose what i should have said before was "no nintendo shouldnt team up with microsoft, they are too different"

i remember going to sega world in sydney back in the day, they had this VR thing, it was pretty cool, but yes very chunky.
but with current tech they could slim it a bit and make it color.
the sega world thing was color too.

I completely agree with you. No one I know wants to strap some big goggles onto their head. I mean look at just the 3d glasses that are making a come back, its hard enough getting people to put those on. People just don't like wearing things to watch TV or play games, its fun maybe once or twice but not all the time.
