{{Infobox consoleWIP}}|title = Discrete Circuitry[[File:vr-Based Arcade Gamesnerd.png|logo = thumb|developer = Misc200px]]|type = [[File:Category:ArcadeQCRCRN.gif|thumb|200px|Arcade systems3DNes VR]]|release = 1972|discontinued = ?|emulated = {{✓}}}}The earliest '''[[arcade emulatorswikipedia:Virtual_reality|arcadeVirtual reality]] ''' ('''VR''') is a field of technology surrounding direct interactivity with virtual 3D environments. This is often achieved with a head-mounted display and some form of input tracking. Some new emulators and forks of established emulators have support for VR headsets. There are a lot of different ways the emulators use the features of VR headsets. A lot of them allow you to play the game on a big screen inside your headset. Some of them have a virtual game room where you can play on a CRT TV or arcade cabinet. Some of them allow you to play games lacked any type of CPUin 3D, consisting only either by emulating the original experience of discrete logic componentsa native 3D system like Virtual Boy or by giving a new way to play a traditional 2D system like NES or GameCube in 3D.
==Overview==Virtual reality is still in it early days. All applications (such as emulators) that want to support a VR headset have to deal with different APIs, controls and sensors unique to each platform. This will hopefully get better now that [[Wikipedia:OpenXR|OpenXR]] has been released. OpenXR is an open and royalty-free standard from Khronos (the organization behind open standards such as OpenGL and Vulkan) that will act as a middle man between VR/AR hardware of all sorts with the purpose to solve VR/AR fragmentation. This will hopefully make it possible to implent VR code once with the OpenXR API and have it compatible with all current and future VR headsets. If OpenXR succeeds, VR support in more regular emulators is much more likely. ==Emulatorswith VR support=={| class="wikitablesortable" style="text-align:center;"

;[[3dSen|3dSen VR]]:Converts two dimensional NES games to 3D and allows you to rotate and change the viewing angle. Was previously know as 3DNes VR, name was changed for release on Steam and itch.io.
;[[Dolphin VR]]: A VR fork by [https://github.com/CarlKenner/ CarlKenner] (AKA [https://www.reddit.com/user/2EyeGuy/ 2EyeGuy]). 3D Games can be played in Virtual Reality with accurate life-size scale, full FOV, a 3D HUD, independent aiming, and the ability to look around. 2D Games can be played on a life-size virtual screen at the correct angle, sometimes even in 3D. Supports Wii, GameCube and Nintendo 64 Virtual Console games. There are also romhacks that can be used to make games more VR friendly, an example being this [https://www.dsogaming.com/news/you-can-now-play-the-legend-of-zelda-ocarina-of-time-in-vr-first-person-mode-on-the-pc/ Ocarina of Time romhack].

;VBjin-OVR: Has a Head Locked mode where the screen is fixed in view and head tracking is ignored and a Immersive mode where the screen is placed in the world and head tracking is used to allow you to look around. This mode should be considered experimental and suffers from artifacts inherent to the Virtual Boy's implementation.
;[[RetroArch]]:Can output side-by-side video for [[wikipedia:List_of_stereoscopic_video_games|3D games]]. This can be used to view the game in 3D with a VR headset, 3D TV, 3D projector or Android phone with cardboard. With [https://github.com/libretro/glsl-shaders/tree/master/stereoscopic-3d these glsl-shaders] it is possible to play both anaglyph systems (like [[Virtual_Boy_emulators|Virtual Boy]]) and active shutter stereoscopic 3D games (like [[wikipedia:Famicom_3D_System|Famicom 3D System]] or [https://segaretro.org/3-D_Glasses SegaScope 3-D]). For PC, use something like [https://bigscreenvr.com/ Bigscreen] and enable SBS3D mode to show SBS content in your VR headset, for Android it should work right away. ;Emukit VR: Web based N64 & PSX emulation in 3D. ;PPSSPP VR: A VR fork by [https://github.com/CarlKenner/ CarlKenner] (AKA [https://www.reddit.com/user/2EyeGuy/ 2EyeGuy]). PPSSPP VR is a PlayStation Portable emulator for the Oculus Rift that lets you actually be inside PSP games. You are not playing on a virtual handheld or screen, you are inside the virtual world. Important: do not resize the mirror window while in VR mode! Otherwise the GUI will stop working. It will still render at full resolution in the Rift. Don't forget to set the internal resolution to whatever you want, 6x works well. Check out [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFEbMESRGVo this video] to see what it's like.

This should make it possible to view the game in 3D with a VR headset, 3D TV, 3D monitor or 3D projector. For a VR headset, use something like [https://bigscreenvr.com/ Bigscreen] and enable SBS3D mode to show SBS content in your VR headset. ;Decaf VR: A VR fork by [https://github.com/CarlKenner/ CarlKenner] (AKA [https://www.reddit.com/user/2EyeGuy/ 2EyeGuy]).

For use with a VR headset, use side-by-side output. For PC, use something like [https://bigscreenvr.com/ Bigscreen] and enable SBS3D mode to show SBS content in your VR headset, for Android it should work right away. As of October 2019 an OpenXR implementation for full VR support is being worked on, see this [https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/8380 pull request] for more info.*'''DICE''' *''';[[MAMERPCS3]]''' has :Added support forPlayStation 3D on March 7, 2020<ref name="rpcs3">https://twitter.com/rpcs3/status/1236296783594229762</ref>. Initially only for Anaglyph output but stereoscopic will be added later. Use something like [https://bigscreenvr.com/ Bigscreen] and enable SBS3D mode to show SBS content in your VR headset. There is [[wikipedia:List_of_PlayStation_3_games_with_3D_support|a list on Wikipedia]] with games that have 3D support. ==VR game room simulations==A VR game room simulation provides a simulated game room; within that room there are arcade machines or one or more classic consoles connected to ordinary 2d screens that the user can interact with as they would a real-life TV.
