⬆️Perhaps the best part of this directory is the screenshots for "Mario Smash", the cancelled Mario game for Virtual Boy.
These are VERY high quality and high resolution. The pixels are clean enough, someone could accurately recreate them all in pixel art with some patience.

I think something that annoys me the most is "erm, Virtual Boy games weren't good 30 years ago, why would I want to play them now, the only one worth playing is Wario Land" cause like none of that is true

Virtual Boy redemption arc begins now
I was never interested in the Virtual Boy – its upcoming Switch 2 revival included – but now that I've tried it, I have to admit it's kind of cool. gameinformer.com/2026/02/03/i...

Those who missed out on Virtual Boy in the 90s might be pleasantly surprised, as Nintendo’s 3D oddity comes to Switch…

Mario and Captain are SO good!
Nintendo didn’t just have games, there were amiibo and other cool items on display! Take a look!

Now you too can play a slowed down version of a game from 20 years ago with no actual level design or enemies and all it costs is a complete collapse of the world economy, biosphere, education system, and multiple entire creative industries.
Project Genie is an an experimental research prototype that Google gave @jaypeters.net access to this week, though he may not be using it in exactly the way Google intended.
Here's Jay's version of something like Super Mario 64:
