List of Virtual Boy demos

Due to the Virtual Boy's short life span, there were few games made for the system. Because of that fact the demos for the Virtual Boy have become a valuable resource for seeing what the Virtual Boy "could" have become.

Technology demos

; Dolphin DemoThis demo shows a small group of dolphins swimming around at a beach. It serves to show off some various water effects.

; Driving DemoDriving Demo is one of the more advanced demos, its 30-second clip showed a first-person view of driving by road signs and palm trees. This demo was shown on E³ and CES in 1995.

; Mario DemoThe start-up screen of the Virtual Boy Prototype that was shown in Shoshinkai in 1994.

; SampleA simple demo that came with the VUE Debugger software. The only thing to do is move a ball around a three-dimensional field.

; Sample Soft for VUE ProgrammingA sample program for Virtual Boy programmers. The source code came with every VUE-debugger and served to highlight some basic functions. The demo is made up of five programmes:

# Object and Background Display (running monkey)
# Background Affin Transformation (spinning Nintendo logo)
# Background H Bias (vibrating Nintendo logo)
# Inter Pupillary Distance (IPD) and Focus Adjustment (Nintendo standard screen)
