| id="b"| Bonk series entry (Genjin Show: Tobidase! VB Genjin)
|An entry in the Bonk platformer series was internally proposed at Hudson Soft for the Virtual Boy shortly after the completion of Super Bonk (1994). Design documents proposed using the Virtual Boy's 3D visuals to create the effect of viewing the game itself from the point of an audience member looking down and watching a performance on a stage. The game was cancelled and abandoned before it could even be publicly announced due to the poor performance and swift discontinuation of the Virtual Boy hardware.[{{cite web | last=Yarwood | first=Jack| title=Never-Before-Seen Documents For Abandoned Virtual Boy 'Bonk' Project Surface Online | website=Time Extension | date=November 14, 2022 | url=https://www.timeextension.com/news/2022/11/never-before-seen-documents-for-abandoned-virtual-boy-bonk-project-surface-online | access-date=May 13, 2024}}]

| Bound High!
| A top-down perspective action-puzzle game where the player would maneuver a bouncing ball-like character named "Chalvo" through levels, bouncing on enemies and avoiding pits, with the Virtual Boy's 3D effect used to show depth. The game was far enough along in development to be present at E3 1996, and was eventually finished, but the Virtual Boy's discontinuation cancelled the game's release. Some of the development team reworked some of the content into a Japan-only 2D Game Boy Color game Chalvo 55 (1997). Later on, Bound High's source code leaked in 2010, which was eventually unofficially assembled into a playable version of the entire game.[{{cite web|last=Kohler|first=Chris|url=https://www.wired.com/2012/12/bound-high-virtual-boy/|title=When Games get Canceled, These Guys Bring them Back to Life|website=Wired|date=December 12, 2012|access-date=September 28, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161222192532/https://www.wired.com/2012/12/bound-high-virtual-boy/|archive-date=December 22, 2016|url-status=live}}]

| id="d"| Donkey Kong Country 2
| Shortly after the successful release of Donkey Kong Country (1994), a small team at Rare was tasked with testing to see what they could do with Donkey Kong on the Virtual Boy hardware. Tests included adding content from Donkey Kong Land (1995), which featured comparable monochrome graphics. The work created a visual that looked like the Donkey Kong Land series with a 3D popping out effect. It was decided to make a version of Donkey Kong Country 2 for the Virtual Boy, as that was the Donkey Kong Country game being worked on in 1995. Only minimal work was done on the project — while they were happy with how it looked, creating the 3D effect was very labor-intensive, and the idea was abandoned as it was becoming clear that the Virtual Boy was becoming a commercial failure.[{{cite web|last=Linneman|first=John|url=https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-retro-donkey-kong-country-killer-instinct|title=DF Retro takes on Donkey Kong Country and Killer Instinct • The story of Rare's SGI revolution - as told by the developers|website=Eurogamer|publisher=Gamer Network Ltd.|date=December 16, 2017|access-date=September 28, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180320001528/https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2017-retro-donkey-kong-country-killer-instinct|archive-date=March 20, 2018|df=dmy-all|url-status=live}}][{{cite web|url=http://rareware.com/the_site/talk_to_us/scribes/aug10_01/aug10_01.html|title=Scribes|publisher=Rareware|date=August 10, 2001|access-date=August 10, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020805042002/http://rareware.com/the_site/talk_to_us/scribes/aug10_01/aug10_01.html|archive-date=August 5, 2002|url-status=live|df=dmy-all}}][{{cite web | title=Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest | website=VG247 | date=November 20, 1995 | url=https://www.vg247.com/games/donkey-kong-country-2-diddys-kong-quest | access-date=May 13, 2024}}]

|Translating roughly to Doraemon: Nobita's Pounding Heart! Ghostland, the game was based on the Doraemon franchise. The game consisted of moving the title character through sidescrolling levels of an amusement park. Various minigames, such as one where you road a rollercoaster, demonstrated the Virtual Boy's 3D effects. The game was scheduled for a 1996 release in Japan, but the Virtual Boy was discontinued in December 1995 in Japan, and the game never saw release.[{{cite magazine|url=https://www.planetvb.com/modules/articles/?s059325002|title=バーチャルボーイ ゲームフラッシュ - 新作VBゲーム情報発信基地|magazine=Dengeki Super Famicom|volume=4|issue=1|publisher=MediaWorks|date=January 5–19, 1996|page=46|lang=ja|access-date=September 29, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190530001217/https://www.planetvb.com/modules/articles/?s059325002|archive-date=May 30, 2019|url-status=live}}]

| GoldenEye 007
|Upon securing the rights to use the James Bond license in 1995, Nintendo originally planned on developing a companion game to the Nintendo 64 title GoldenEye 007 (1997) on the Virtual Boy. Little is known about the title beyond a small mention in a Nintendo flier given out at events during the platform's lifespan. While the N64 title was a first person shooter, the Virtual Boy game had a completely different premise centered around driving Bond's car, shooting at enemies and avoiding obstacles. Rare, developer of the N64 game, clarified they had no involvement in the Virtual Boy title. The Virtual Boy game was cancelled, and an unrelated companion game James Bond 007 (1998) was published by Nintendo for the Game Boy instead.[Nintendo Trade Show Flier]

That, coupled with the Virtual Boy's commercial failure and discontinuation, lead to the game's cancellation. The game was not finished, but the developers have a working, playable build of a few levels from the game, which were shown online in 2020, though Nintendo would not authorize its release onto the internet, so only screenshots and videos exist publicly.[{{cite web|last=Gasking|first=Frank|url=https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/09/feature_the_story_of_virtual_tank_a_lost_virtual_boy_successor_to_ataris_battlezone|title=Feature: The Story Of Virtual Tank, A Lost Virtual Boy Successor To Atari's Battlezone - "We were really surprised at the speed that the platform died"|work=Nintendo Life|publisher=Nlife Media|date=September 21, 2020|access-date=2020-09-21|archive-url=https://archive.today/20200921023657/https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/09/feature_the_story_of_virtual_tank_a_lost_virtual_boy_successor_to_ataris_battlezone|archive-date=2020-09-21|url-status=live}}]

| Worms
| A version of the original Worms (1995) was announced for the Virtual Boy, but was cancelled very early in development. Not much was done besides a basic proposal to publisher Ocean Software and some early tests with Virtual Boy hardware.[{{cite magazine|url=https://archive.org/stream/MicromaniaTerceraEpocaSpanishIssue8#page/n57/mode/1up|title=Reportaje: Extraña mezcla... de gusanos - Worms|magazine=Micromanía|volume=3|issue=8|publisher=HobbyPress|date=September 1995|page=58|lang=es}}][{{cite web | last=Langshaw | first=Mark | title=A look back at Nintendo's Virtual Boy | website=Digital Spy | date=April 5, 2014 | url=https://www.digitalspy.com/videogames/retro-gaming/a562419/virtual-boy-retrospective-nintendos-disastrous-foray-into-vr/ | access-date=May 13, 2024}}]

| id="z"| Zero Racers / G-Racers
| A spinoff of the F Zero series of racing games by Nintendo that would have taken place in the same fictional universe and contained similar racing of vehicles, albeit with the change of racing through a more tube shaped race track than a usual flat one. In 2022, a former Nintendo employee verified that the game was entirely finished and ready to be released, even getting an ESRB rating. However, the game was still cancelled due to the commercial failure of the Virtual Boy, and never released in any capacity, although some characters meant to be introduced in the game were later implemented into the Nintendo 64 game F Zero X (1998).[{{cite magazine | last=LeBlanc | first=Wesley | title=Virtual Boy F-Zero Spinoff That Never Released ‘Was Done,' According To Former Nintendo Producer | magazine=Game Informer | date=February 28, 2022 | url=https://www.gameinformer.com/2022/02/28/virtual-boy-f-zero-spinoff-that-never-released-was-done-according-to-former-nintendo | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220228152635/https://www.gameinformer.com/2022/02/28/virtual-boy-f-zero-spinoff-that-never-released-was-done-according-to-former-nintendo | archive-date=February 28, 2022 | access-date=May 13, 2024|url-status=live}}][{{cite web | last=McFerran | first=Damien | title=Mythical Virtual Boy F-Zero Spin-Off Was 100% Complete, According To Former NOA Staffer | website=Nintendo Life | date=February 28, 2022 | url=https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2022/02/mythical-virtual-boy-f-zero-spin-off-was-100percent-complete-according-to-former-noa-staffer | access-date=May 13, 2024}}]
