This is a complete list of games for Nintendo's Virtual Boy video game console, organized alphabetically by their English title.

The Virtual Boy was released on July 21, 1995, in Japan and on August 14, 1995, in United States. Its launch titles were: Galactic Pinball, Mario's Tennis, Panic Bomber (Japan only), Red Alarm, and Teleroboxer. However, due to poor sales of the system, the Virtual Boy was discontinued the following year, with 3D Tetris being the last game to be released on March 22, 1996. In all total, only 22 games were ever released.

Cancelled games

Due to the unexpected failure of the system, the Virtual Boy has a higher than normal number of games cancelled in mid-production. Some cancelled games were close to completion, but the cost of production for a failed system would have resulted in a net loss, while others were cancelled early in development. Below is a list of all known games that were cancelled. It does not include the many nameless games planned and/or in production by various companies.
