    Two of Nintendo’s most-hated systems finally meet. Wii U and Virtual Boy unite! 

    This game, Mario Clash, is great. It’s like a sequel to arcade Mario Brothera. The jump and throw buttons are reversed from what you’d expect, but you get used to it pretty fast. I still swapped the buttons on my controller, however, and turned the harsh red colors to a nice white. The graphics really pop on my CRT. Shame the VB wasn’t handled and designed a little better.

      Not in 3d? 

      I have a real Virtual Boy, and it's the red graphics and working 3D that make it special.  This game in particular needs the 3D to get the full effect of what they were trying to do.  It's so cool when your eyes have to shift focus when jumping from front/back and vice versa.  I'm going to guess that without 3D, the game is a lot easier and loses what makes it so unique.

      I haven’t played in 3D, so I can’t really say, but I feel it would be a lot easier in 3D. Having to line up those shell shots from the background to the foreground is pretty tricky here. I imagine in 3D you’d be able to line it up better. Just a guess though, and I can’t say for sure.

      It is cool to be able to experience the game on the Wii-U in any case. 

      I have here a set of those red/cyan 3D glasses, and one of my lined-up projects is to try a PC VB emulator that tries to accomplish the 3D effect with those glasses.  I think I saw an ArcadeUSA video about it.
