I don't find VB uncomfortable for the eyes, but the spine can suffer quite a
bit. It can't be hand-held, so it sits on a table on its pedestal and the player
hunkers over it in a pose that can be very straining if everything isn't just
right. The games are not exactly "awesome," at least not in the time-honored
sense of the word, but they are better than Gameboy. One minus is the
monochrome, red-and-black image -- apparently the game hasn't the processing
power for color. At its original price, the system was too expensive; at the
Blockbuster clearance price it was a bargain; at its current
somewhere-in-between price its okay if you have disposable income.
