 Nintendo Virtual Boy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nintendo Virtual Boy (released on August 14, 1995 in the USA and July 21, 1995 in Japan) is a video game console that used a twin eyeglass style projector to display the games in "true" 3-D (though monochromatic).

At the time, Nintendo was considered nearly invincible in the videogame market with the massive success of the NES, SNES, and Game Boy and its ability to hold arch-rival SEGA at bay as the Nintendo 64 was being developed.

February 26, 2004 - When the Game Boy Advance was announced back in 1999, one of the first features Nintendo touted for the system was interconnectivity to the then-in-development Dolphin system...now known as, of course, the Nintendo GameCube.

Link the Game Boy Advance game to the GameCube and you'll be able to transfer this collection to the GameCube version of the game.
