I thought the 'Virtua Boy' was the name of a Game Boy emulator - but they probably stole it from the real Virtual Boy. I had a gameboy pocket (black and white) with one of those 150 in 1 games pirate cartridges. Must've been about '96...The gameboy though, that's another 90s icon.

I remember the Virtual Boy. When it first came out, they had one on display at Zellers and I gave it a try. The red screen was quite hard on the eyes :o
