Visual Basic is Microsoft's product and is currently being discontinued so that is one con I know of. Visual Basic is a great language for beginners to start off with. Heck it was the first language I ever used. It has the possibility of making games with the Direct X library and with the Elysium Engine with some editing you can make a pretty good MMORPG.

Just wanted to say - Visual Basic 6.0 support will continue in the next release of the Windows OS, and quite possibly (though not as strongly) in the OS after that. This only applies to people with those versions of the OS, though. Tons of people still use Pre-XP versions of Windows, which has been out for a while now.
Also, might want to specify that this is for Visual Basic Legacy (Pre-.NET). .NET will still be supported long and strong.
