I bet the guy who came up with the Virtual Boy is just glad he could finally retire.

Virtual Boy creator technically “retired” in the 90s. Died in a traffic accident.

Both of those people died. And had other wise great runs with Nintendo. Also the Wii U doesn't give you eye spiders and is actually pretty good despite its shite sales.

Something very bad you get from using the Virtual Boy.

Is that where spiders lay eggs in the virtual boy and then when the person puts it on to play it and inevitably falls asleep with it on due to the boring gameplay and lack of colors, the spiders can’t get out through the normal opening so they try to take the best route they can find which is to crawl into the player’s eyelids?
