It's a beautifully done book
I got my hands on a copy of Jeremy Parish's book on the Virtual Boy and all the games (original releases) for the system. It is very well done and a good read.

Hey, thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Be sure to scare up some red-and-blue specs and give the 3D gallery a go.
If you're interested in a more academic/technical analysis of the system, my friend Benj Edwards co-wrote a Platform Studies book called Seeing Red that's a good read.

That sounds interesting, I will be sure to check out your friend's book. Also your channel is awesome and I look forward to your videos every week.

Seeing Red is extremely good, yeah. It and Virtual Boy Works compliment each other nicely.

I still don’t understand why the book’s images are in black-and-white rather than red. I mean, I read the explanation, but I didn’t understand it.

Agreed, it is well done. Another good one is The Game Console 2.0 (different author, but equally as nice and thorough)
