Virtual reality also introduces a major problem, which is that you cannot see what is going on around you. To address this, the device has stands, as it is designed to be mounted near table-edge. The limitations of 3D-perspective limited gameplay time, as lengthy play could become disorienting. This type of immersive gameplay in a virtual reality type environment was unprecedented in its day. The console was canceled shortly after launch to divert resources to the home console division which was currently working on the much higher-stakes Nintendo 64. The legacy of the console is one where the portable is much better to look at, then it is to play.
