Ellen, the reason the Virtual Boy wants your eyes is to convert them into Gameboy Cameras. All the pieces where there, you just had to put the puzzle together.
The Virtual Boy can't have Ellen's eyes. Jane is using them to enhance the reach of her soul-manipulation powers, and any Virtual Boy that tries to interfere in that plan is going to be synthesising a few octaves higher on its way to a BSOD.
I wish I read this comment before rewinding the video, pausing it, taking a picture of the qr code (I thought my phone had some tech I wasn't aware of), realising my stupidity, downloading an app, then scanning it twice to not find a link to a picture of Ellen😭 I have too much free time...
Andy Mcp Kinda like how in NiGHTS, Nightmaren cannot take your Red Ideya away from you by force, you have to be fooled-into giving it up willingly. However, if Wizman is desparate enough, he's the only being of Nightmares that can force the takeaway of the Red Ideya, as seen in the scene in Bell Tower, where Kellen's Red Ideya is taken from her by Wizman.
Hey look Ellen, the system even comes with a free ice-cream scoop. Those eyes will be available even sooner, just insert the new "add on" into the socket, apply a small amount and pressure and before you can say "Oh god it wants my eyes!" you can have them out in no time!
As long as I've known her, Jane has only wanted one thing: to wipe out half the universe. With all 327 power glove buttons, she can do it with a snap of her fingers.
Yes in some parallel universe they loved the Virtual Boy, and in that parallel universe there's a generation of visually impaired hunchbacks. Still, given how those hunchbacks pushed for medical system reforms and higher consumer safety standards I'm not sure we're better off...
Worth noting: the Power Glove had a prototype that was fully functional and worked perfectly, it was being rushed into development to the point they couldn't scale it down to an affordable level in time and what came out was the end result.
11:35--[Takes out phone] "Hey, when has blindly following a link ever gotten me in trouble, aside from those last two computers, my wrecked credit rating, and those government watch lists I'm now permanently on?"
That pun makes me want to down vodka martinis (shaken not stirred) until I black out and forget everything that happened in the last week just to get it out of my head.
Cats that like cheeseburgers... Are you referring to the wedding of Cheeseburger the bear and Peaches the mountain lion? Because that was such a beautiful wedding! They were so lucky with the weather and all of the family on both sides that attended.
I vividly remember being a little kid sooo excited to rent Hey You Pikachu from the local Blockbuster (I'm THAT old, yes). I was so sad at how bad it worked, and how, since Pikachu never listened to anyone, and the player character was incapable of literally doing anything, you could never complete your objectives. Eventually, it always ended up as a screaming match with us shouting the worst possible insults possible. There's a good reason why so many people call it "F*ck You, Pikachu".
Please note on my original comment when I said "being a little kid". I was a kid, a pre-pubescent girl with a high voice, when that game came out. It still didn't work.
and that they later improved. powerpad became the balance board, and eventually pokemon GO making you walk around. Transfer Pak became the National Dex. Virtual Boy is Labo VR. Power glove became the wiimote.
I mean, they even show current products where the same idea became very successful. Nintendo is just ahead of their time, coming up with ideas before the technology really exists. They crank out pokemon games so they can afford to take risks.
What? The transfer pak a doomed idea? I fondly remember playing pokémon yellow on the tv screen. I do not remember it making the controller that awkard. The controller was awkward by default, it didn't need the transfer pak for that.
MrRickw001 And also completely breaking the difficulty of the Pokemon stadium games, since you now could use your own Pokemon from the game boy. Needles to say, my level 100 Mewtwo with maxed stats and a movepool of amnesia, psychic, recover and bodyslam trivialized the game a bit. To this day I foundly remember my Pokemon yellow Mewtwo, and shed a tear of pride as I recall him crushing all my fiends via game boy link-cable.
It’s a failure since it was only used with the old Pokémon games & never made it past the n64,so it is a failure,nowadays everything is with wireless technology & it’s obviously better & modern/futuristic,these are facts.
Yeah, we used the transfer pak a lot. Not sure it even got cancelled or anything. I know a lot of the later games had ways for transferring from the hand held.
well still have my N64 and transfer pak's and then Gamecube with it's direct attachment to it's base to allow you to play gameboy advanced games. it was when we hit wii that it got harder... admitidly still have my original wii and my wii U, Gamboy color, gameboy advanced, and nintendo ds.... soooo I might just be a loon.
With VR being really popular right now I see the virtual boy as an idea that was way ahead of its time but before VR took off I just saw the virtual boy as a laughing stock and I still do, but admire it for its ingenuity for its time
Nintendo has always been the most innovative gaming company. Their ideas may flop but they constantly pave the way for the technology of the future. While Playstation and Microsoft keep things relatively safe and the same.
Jakushka VR exsisted before the virtual boy and it was bether then it, VB is not real VR more like red and black 3d. nintendo copies just like anyone else. Even the wii is not original, motion controls exsisted before that to
Tom Moons Yes vr existed before the vb. However it did not exist at home. And I am aware that it is horrendous and red and straining on the eyes. My friend growing up had one. And with motion controls the same thing. They were available at home. Wireless controllers as well. GameCube? Had the fist one. It worked like 60% of the time at first.
This is a great trip down memory lane (Yes. I'm old)! It's like an updated summary of the Angry Video Game Nerd's accessories episode (or "assessories," as AVGN calls them), but without the off-key intro song that constantly makes my ears bleed! Thanks, Outside Xtra!
wow two traumatized hosts in one episode! way to go Nintendo! also to the Gameboy camera, I'm running from both you and the virtua boy. I'd like to keep BOTH my eyes and my soul if at all possible. thanks.
I like how none of those worked at the time, often referred to as something that should never be tried again, yet are now a real thing, and fairly common.
I'd say that the Wii U could probably make number 8 on the list. My friends and I loved some of the things they did with the extra screen, like being able to do couch co-op Hyrule Warriors but on your own screen, they just didn't market it super well.
Luke saying "Oh no, my life choices" was too real. Now I'm off to deal with my burgeoning existential crisis. Thanks for making me realize my mortality Outside Xtra; it was painful but necessary.
The power glove IS the infinity gauntlet. Just the one after the Living Tribunal disabled it so it doesn't work. Which is why the power glove is useless.
"oh no, my life choices.." I mean, they led you to be a presenter for a gaming channel and you had a roadtrip through europe in a tesla so maybe you should apologise to that pikachu
I feel like this entire video was a huge missed opportunity to have Mirror Universe Oxtrabox crew on to talk about all these fabulous technological marvels that ARE a smash hit in THEIR universe
Two things: 1) For the next DnD campaign, we need the villain to be Nint Endo the eye snatcher. 2) Am I the only who thinks that (for the time) the transfer pak is actually pretty neat?
Ah, I liked the transfer pak... and hey you Pikachu... actually, the transfer pak reminds me that, after the Gameboy advanced and the gamecube player they made for it, they never released a method to play any ds/3ds games on a big screen... which sucks, frankly.
Not sure if this is the same thing you're talking about Hellwyk, these are on sale in the UK but they're not heavily marketed like they used to be, hence HanSolo Chewbacca's suggestion it was a blast from the past for British cereals. Apparently they sell them in Sainsburys and Waitrose, which is why I haven't seen them for years! www.nestle-cereals.com/uk/en/products-promotions/brands/golden-grahams-brand
Ellen has right to be afraid, it seems that part of the Virtual Boy programming might have leaked to the switch. I was playing super mario odessey when suddenly one of the joy-cons slipped from my hand and went straight for my left eye, I was just able to dodge it... we have to be careful guys!
Nintendo does not approve of you bringing-up there past failures. They are going to need everything but your eyes. Those are to be left as a warning for other would be critics.
Also this job and others like it are outsourced to Mike's hitman 47 character -full MURDER CLOWN. So sorry Oxbox you'll probably be collateral damage. Sorry to the rest of London as well for the same reason.
I actually grew up playing E.T and Plaque Attack. I miss that game, tbh. Exploring, finding the pieces to phone home, escaping the military and scientists before finally being rescued.
10:41 I owned the blue gameboy camera (never had the printer). Honestly, I didnt use the actual camera that much and mostly played the games and music maker that was loaded onto it.
What about the weird add-ons from other companies? Like that “feed back vest” (I forget the actual name) that fires small pistons into your chest when you get shot or hurt in a game.
WOAH WOAH WOAH the Power Pad is bad? That was a huge part of my childhood! I credit owning all my brothers and friends in power pad racing games with increasing my footspeed and making me unbeatable down low as a hockey goalie. I loved that thing!
What the hell was with that nightmare commercial for the Virtual Boy?! I will be keeping my eyes, thank you very much. I didn't know ROB had such a vital role in helping the NES save videogames, though. He may have been a terrible peripheral on his own, but I think he deserves to be remembered for his place in history. :)
What!? The Power Glove was awesome! Everybody wanted one! Mostly because no one actually owned one. Which, in hindsight, is probably a bad business model.
What about the e-Reader? Scanning cards with actual code upon them to piece together a full bit of software was such a cool idea. Especially when they combined it with the trading cards at the time, to give little videos or apps. My favourite was a coin flipping app, stored on just one trading card! I was so sad to see the e-Reader fade away into obscurity, I've got tons of nostalgia of swiping cards through it.

5:11 Oh now I'm upset that the train driving sim Outside XBox played didn't use the voice commands....
"Oh no my life choices" may be the most relatable sentence ive heard on this channel
“Nintendo: Wii want your eyes!”
I think _Wii_ can all agree this pun was the cheesiest thing _Wii_ have ever heard.
Ok
👀
After hearing this joke I bet Wii and U are nintenseing up
Improved version: "Wii would like your eyes."
Ellen, the reason the Virtual Boy wants your eyes is to convert them into Gameboy Cameras. All the pieces where there, you just had to put the puzzle together.
The Virtual Boy can't have Ellen's eyes. Jane is using them to enhance the reach of her soul-manipulation powers, and any Virtual Boy that tries to interfere in that plan is going to be synthesising a few octaves higher on its way to a BSOD.
The need Ellen's eyes to make those...Rose tinted glasses :P
Getting SOMA flashbacks...
Jesus fucking CRIST
Only red? Excuse me Ellen but I can quite plainly see three colours on my screen. Black, Red, and even Redder Red. Better gets those eyes checked...
Nah, they won't want poor eyesight eyes so she is safe for now
She's lucky Nintendo is even taking an interest in those when she cant make out the other colours lol
The QR code goes to the DND playlist. Well played.
ikr
WHEREISSPACEBAR ffs beat me to it😂
WHEREISSPACEBAR they should have maybe done something with it though and made a giveaway or even a whole other video
They did.... They directed you to an awesome playlist.
I wish I read this comment before rewinding the video, pausing it, taking a picture of the qr code (I thought my phone had some tech I wasn't aware of), realising my stupidity, downloading an app, then scanning it twice to not find a link to a picture of Ellen😭 I have too much free time...
11:41 The QR Code leading to EP 1 of the OXVenture playlist is genius! Well played.
Ohhh Ellen, Nintendo doesnt want to *take* your eyes silly, it wants you to give up your eyes willingly ahahaha
Its easier this way.
Now I feel like I need to rewatch "Coraline"
It's*
I dunno if eyes trumps an arm and leg... coz this stuff usually costs a fortune
Andy Mcp Kinda like how in NiGHTS, Nightmaren cannot take your Red Ideya away from you by force, you have to be fooled-into giving it up willingly. However, if Wizman is desparate enough, he's the only being of Nightmares that can force the takeaway of the Red Ideya, as seen in the scene in Bell Tower, where Kellen's Red Ideya is taken from her by Wizman.
Hey look Ellen, the system even comes with a free ice-cream scoop. Those eyes will be available even sooner, just insert the new "add on" into the socket, apply a small amount and pressure and before you can say "Oh god it wants my eyes!" you can have them out in no time!
"Oh no... My life choices..."
I love the OX crew and their content always bring me joy, but that set and line was truly amazing.
After Jane uses the Power Glove
Luke: Viewers I don't feel so good...
Luke 2.0 rises from the dust
Wait...is the Power Glove a prototype Squidfinity Gauntlet?
Timothy McLean 🤔
Too soon....
As long as I've known her, Jane has only wanted one thing: to wipe out half the universe. With all 327 power glove buttons, she can do it with a snap of her fingers.
So ... Jane's going to defeat Thanos because his ambition is getting in the way of hers...?
Yes in some parallel universe they loved the Virtual Boy, and in that parallel universe there's a generation of visually impaired hunchbacks.
Still, given how those hunchbacks pushed for medical system reforms and higher consumer safety standards I'm not sure we're better off...
But none of them have eyes to enjoy those sweet virtual boy graphics
What's wrong with the name "Power pad"? Why is my wife still laughing about it? I'm confused.
J Ruonti it sounds like it's meant to be a feminine hygiene product.
Sanitary pads (female hygiene product)
If I may make a suggestion. How about a list of ideas that seemed like they would be miserable failures, but ended up being incredible!
Also: I followed the QR Code to its source, got to say thats a quality source. Everyone should follow it for some... dungeony goodness.
Caitlin RC aw man, now I've got to buy another phone.
I am so glad I'm not the only one who did this.
I kinda expected a self plug honestly
lol wow for a moment I was worried it was going to go to some BDSM thing given MonkeyShaman's comment... but it's just a link to their D&D game vids
aw I was hoping it was a secret or something I haven't seen like 5 times lol
“If you offer me something that can’t take selfie I’ll slap it out of your hand and stomp on it”

with Nintendo anything can work. Right now they're selling cardboard and it's working
@khamjaninja: holy tomatoes, that explains a lot :D
khamjaninja or someone forgot their pitch, walked into the meeting, panicky held up their lunch box and went "it's called the...uh...labo"
On the bright sight for them it probably needed to sell like 3 units to recoup all the manufacturing costs because it's literally cardboard.
Funny part is it's working, dumb Nintendo peasants are actually paying $80 for overpriced cardboard, LOL!
To be fair the controllers and concepts were 20 years ahead of their time.
And google sold cardboard too.
"Oh No My Life Choices!" Is the new single from my new band, "Depression!"
Worth noting: the Power Glove had a prototype that was fully functional and worked perfectly, it was being rushed into development to the point they couldn't scale it down to an affordable level in time and what came out was the end result.
also worth noting that the power glove was made by Mattel, so technically not a Nintendo fail!
11:35--[Takes out phone] "Hey, when has blindly following a link ever gotten me in trouble, aside from those last two computers, my wrecked credit rating, and those government watch lists I'm now permanently on?"
Thanos loves his power glove
Don't worry, Ellen. You're under the protection of FLAMINGOS, and FLAMINGOS never say "de-eye."
This needs to make it into comments of the week just for Andy to "Boo!!" it.
That pun makes me want to down vodka martinis (shaken not stirred) until I black out and forget everything that happened in the last week just to get it out of my head.

I was a kid, a pre-pubescent girl with a high voice, when that game came out. It still didn't work.
My family and I found great fun in cursing at Pikachu because it wouldn't react otherwise.
All this stuff is basically Nintendo having good ideas but not having the technology to make something half decent.
and that they later improved. powerpad became the balance board, and eventually pokemon GO making you walk around. Transfer Pak became the National Dex. Virtual Boy is Labo VR. Power glove became the wiimote.

Yeah, transfer pack was brilliant. It felt good to see your carefully bred pokemon utterly destroy the rentals
It’s a failure since it was only used with the old Pokémon games & never made it past the n64,so it is a failure,nowadays everything is with wireless technology & it’s obviously better & modern/futuristic,these are facts.

Way ahead of its time and very very poorly executed. Even if it was ON TIME, that execution was a nightmare and disaster before it was ever launched.
Nintendo has always been the most innovative gaming company. Their ideas may flop but they constantly pave the way for the technology of the future. While Playstation and Microsoft keep things relatively safe and the same.
Actually, I'd say the 3DS is a closer spiritual successor.

How about a video game that stars Doom guy saving the realm from an evil pig demon guy called Ganon? Oh wait... doesn't that already exist?
Hm... I think it has 4 characters, something to do with connections? Hm..... Bond!
Platonis The Warlock its actually spelled zelda
Tape?, Glue?, Binding?
Shhh don't tell Luke...
WiFi?
wow two traumatized hosts in one episode! way to go Nintendo! also to the Gameboy camera, I'm running from both you and the virtua boy. I'd like to keep BOTH my eyes and my soul if at all possible. thanks.
8. The 1993 Zelda spinoff featuring Link in a sci-fi setting battling demons and saving the world, "Doom"

Please don’t take Ellen’s eyes!
Too late, I already swiped them.
Agreed. She is a treasure.
Don't worry, there are no eyes in Ellen.
TAKE HER EYES! DON'T TAKE MINE!
I love Ellen so much. She made me smile so much in this video. May your eyes be forever protected, Ellen.
12:25- Is that the guy Nintendo hired to take our eyes? If so I'm running from him!
12:20 you mean? 12:25 is Luke crying.
This comment needs your eyes
Ok 👀

1:49 Mr. Pearson from PlayStation Access would like to have a word with you.....
They think we won't notice with the indirect insult. ;)
"Wii would like your eyes!"
"Huh. I don't remember this commercial."
Turn Luke into another robot? Jeez, how many robots are working at Oxbox?
*All* robots work for ... Wait. Has that happened already, or is that scheduled for 2019?
I wonder if Glados or Wheatley work at OXTRA?🤔
Interesting fact; Nintendo actually started as a card company in 1889 founded by Fusajiro Yamauchi
Headcanon that Evil Luke has a R.O.B. at home that he's repurposed into a robot pet.
Kathy Aird this better not just be your head canon
Let's Pretend I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Because it is my headcanon, that I came up with, as I was watching the video.
I'd say that the Wii U could probably make number 8 on the list. My friends and I loved some of the things they did with the extra screen, like being able to do couch co-op Hyrule Warriors but on your own screen, they just didn't market it super well.
So that's how Odin lost his eye! I thought the story of gouging his own eye out for some liquid wisdom sounded a bit fishy...
Oh Ellen, you don't need a robot to launch Luke 2.0, you just need a chalice of everything everybody wants.
The QR code link to the D&D episode, nice one!
It's funny on how the movie "Ready Player One" pretty much is the parallel universe where all these doomed Nintendo ideas succeeded.
Don't worry Luke, I asked Pikachu all of your questions. He responded: "Pika, pika pika. Pika Pikachu." I don't think that is going to help, is it?
Huh. The little button sounds at 7:00 is the same tune as featured in 'close encounters of the third kind'
When I see R.O.B. I always think of the AVGN where james mimics ROB.
Luke saying "Oh no, my life choices" was too real. Now I'm off to deal with my burgeoning existential crisis. Thanks for making me realize my mortality Outside Xtra; it was painful but necessary.
We're Not Talking About Nintendo Taking Our Eyes, Ellen, Because You're A QR Code
They Can't Take QR Codes Eyes,
Silly Ellen...
*OH NO* MY LIFE CHOICES XD
Speaking of alternative universes, in the Marvel universe the Power Glove is referred to as the Infinity Gauntlet!
The power glove IS the infinity gauntlet. Just the one after the Living Tribunal disabled it so it doesn't work. Which is why the power glove is useless.
Boy, this video also shows how BAD some of those old ads were...
"oh no, my life choices.." I mean, they led you to be a presenter for a gaming channel and you had a roadtrip through europe in a tesla so maybe you should apologise to that pikachu
13:45 As a kid, I adored the Power Pad. My fave was an aerobics game with morning, afternoon, and night backgrounds. Good times~
I love the Power Glove, it's so bad...
even freddy krueger used it in freddys dead the final nightmare.
Ellen's react to the "alternative branding for the Power Pad" was classic.
Thank goodness Nintendo doesn't want our eyes any more.
so...is Pikachu seeing anyone? (Asking for a friend)
No, because Pikachu used the Virtual Boy. Pikachu doesn't see *anything* anymore.
@@roguishpaladin 😂😂😂😂😂👀
You guys always have a good time with these vids and I simply can't stop watching. The enthusiasm and comradeship is just so endearing!
"As if Pokemon is for kids or something!"
Me, who only just got into Pokemon at age 20: *sweats nervously*
I feel like this entire video was a huge missed opportunity to have Mirror Universe Oxtrabox crew on to talk about all these fabulous technological marvels that ARE a smash hit in THEIR universe
I am predicting the Virtual Booy is gonna be on this list...
we'll see about that
If Nintendo take your eyes, you won't be seeing anything.
In defence of the Transfer Pak. You could play Pokémon Red, Blue or Yellow on your N64 AT TWICE SPEED! It was a revolution!
am I the only one that was wating for the Wii-U to appear on this list?
Two things:
1) For the next DnD campaign, we need the villain to be Nint Endo the eye snatcher.
2) Am I the only who thinks that (for the time) the transfer pak is actually pretty neat?
If Nintendo wanted to upgrade my eyes into bionic super-eyes, I'd let them...
I think you'd want bionic eyes that can see more than just red
Knowing Nintendo's always 10 years behind the technology of everyone else, I think I'd pass.
Thank you Andy for perfectly explaining “John Marston Syndrome” at 12:38
"I'm surprised Nintendo let him say that!" Well it was a different time int the 90's, filled with Smooth Criminals, and Michael Jackson...
Ah, I liked the transfer pak... and hey you Pikachu... actually, the transfer pak reminds me that, after the Gameboy advanced and the gamecube player they made for it, they never released a method to play any ds/3ds games on a big screen... which sucks, frankly.
I'm confused. That was a Shreddie wasn't it? What's a Golden Graham?
A blast from the past of British Cereals ;)
It's like a posh shreddie, usually made with honey I think?
Have you heard of Diamond Shreddies? They look very similar to their original brethren.
Not sure if this is the same thing you're talking about Hellwyk, these are on sale in the UK but they're not heavily marketed like they used to be, hence HanSolo Chewbacca's suggestion it was a blast from the past for British cereals.

Frost Pirate26 well it exists
There are, iirc, three.
Only Freshly Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland made it out of Japan.
It is very weird. I imported the first one from the UK.
I'm sorry Ellen. I must take your eyes now. For my uncle who TOTALLY works at Nintendo.
That picture you took of Ellen takes me straight to Oxbox D&D?! That is some druid magic right there!
Please don't take my eyes always makes me burst into laughter. It's so hilariously adorable the way ellen says it. Maybe I'm psychopathic
"Please Don't Take my Eyes 😫" a memoir. By Ellen, oddly enough.
thank GOD, i thought i was the only person who was scared to death by that virtual boy commercial!
I love seeing the old commercials. It brings me back to being a 90’s kid!
using the power pad is the earliest memory i have of playing video games and will always have a place in my heart
Expected a photo of Ellen.
Instead, got a playlist link.
Am 100% satisfied.
10:41 I owned the blue gameboy camera (never had the printer). Honestly, I didnt use the actual camera that much and mostly played the games and music maker that was loaded onto it.
What about the weird add-ons from other companies? Like that “feed back vest” (I forget the actual name) that fires small pistons into your chest when you get shot or hurt in a game.
They already did that video.
Downloaded a QR code reader, specially to see the 'picture of Ellen'. Well played Oxtra, well played...
"Power Pad makes a good cape!!" I can't tell if this is just coincidence... or if this is a reference to AVGN xD. But still hilarious lol
The puns in the title cards are on point!
lol the QR code at 11:40 is a link to their DnD game. brilliant
Lol, the QR code links to the D&D playlist. I love this channel.
Wow, I still remember those Hey, You Pikachu! commercials, they were on half the VHS tapes I owned
I love how much shade they keep throwing at Siri.
WOAH WOAH WOAH the Power Pad is bad? That was a huge part of my childhood! I credit owning all my brothers and friends in power pad racing games with increasing my footspeed and making me unbeatable down low as a hockey goalie. I loved that thing!
7.00 The sequence Lucas uses to activate the Power Glove is the tune from Close Encounters!
What the hell was with that nightmare commercial for the Virtual Boy?! I will be keeping my eyes, thank you very much. I didn't know ROB had such a vital role in helping the NES save videogames, though. He may have been a terrible peripheral on his own, but I think he deserves to be remembered for his place in history. :)
What!? The Power Glove was awesome! Everybody wanted one! Mostly because no one actually owned one. Which, in hindsight, is probably a bad business model.
I love the fact that the qr brings you to another one of there videos that's amazing
What about the e-Reader? Scanning cards with actual code upon them to piece together a full bit of software was such a cool idea. Especially when they combined it with the trading cards at the time, to give little videos or apps. My favourite was a coin flipping app, stored on just one trading card!
I was so sad to see the e-Reader fade away into obscurity, I've got tons of nostalgia of swiping cards through it.
