Why Nintendo Hasn’t Made a Real VR Headset Yet
A rumor suggests that Nintendo and Google are teaming up to create a VR headset. While this rumor has not been confirmed, it raises the question of why Nintendo has not made a VR headset yet.

Examples of Nintendo's successes include DS, Switch, Gameboy, and Wii, while their failure was Virtual Boy. To read the full story, visit Road to VR.
