just tried to play wario without the glasses, rough!
Its nice this works for both SW1 & 2 unlike the GCN games being only for SW2.
I wonder if the switch version will sell more than the actual virtual boy. It's a very low bar to clear.
770k should be easy to clear— Nintendo games of today have a floor of 1 million at launch. Can’t think of many not to hit this goal. Only Bayo & the Lost Devil, Advanced Wars, Famicon Detective, Endless Ocean, 1-2 Everyone Switch, and Xenoblade X DE come to mind.
Even some of them may leg it out to a million over time.
But it's not a game it's a niche add on.
