Hello Everyone at Plant Virtual Boy!

I’m Hoping to enjoy the service this website has to offer. That also I hope to share my connections with other Virtual Boy owners and their experiences with the device it’s self! Is there anything I should know of about the website it’s self? Things I should try? Still new here, and wondering what I should check . up with. Thank you all for reading!

Well, it seems that first and foremost, you should know how to access all of the Virtual Boy ROMS for your viewing and playing pleasure. If you would like to do so with an emulator and you don’t already have one, then I recommend downloading the one named “My Emulator Doesn’t Need A Frickin’ Excellent Name,” also known simply as Mednafen, here:

To enjoy all of the games that have been made available by the fine programmers on this site, visit this page here:

Featured Homebrew Games
http://www.planetvb.com/modules/games/?hf

For each game you want to download, first click on the name of the game and then click on the downloads tab on the next screen to find the ROM. Also, note that the Featured Homebrew Games link I provided brings you to a screen that itself has several different tabs. If you truly want to see every ROM that this site has to offer, click on the “All” tab of that screen and then check to see if there are ROMs available in the downloads tab for each title you click on.

If you are looking for ROMs of the commercially released games, please understand that these do not become available to Planet Virtual Boy users until they have been a member of this site for about 6 months and have made at least 10 posts in the forums, in which case they can then find them by going to Games/Released Games, clicking on the title, and then finding the download in the downloads tab. Nevertheless, the website of emuparadise will get you those games right away, if you want to check them out.

On the other hand, this site has had quite the history of getting prototype games, or games that were never commercially released, made available for everyone to play by various means, and you should be able to access them right now in places that are not so prominent on the site, so here they are:

The Permitted Release of the Bound High! Prototype:

The Leak / Unauthorized Release of the Space Pinball Prototype:

The Unauthorized Release of the Faceball Prototype; plus the hacked “finalized” version:
http://www.planetvb.com/modules/games/?u005d

Most importantly, if you want to enjoy absolutely everything on your Virtual Boy system itself, then definitely order a FlashBoy Plus from Richard Hutchinson if you have not already done so:

Thank you for the information! Really useful! Appreciate it. ^^
