I’d like to share with you the completion of a project I started a few years ago, which is now fully functional.
MrCART is a flash cart that doesn’t need to be removed to change games—just power the system off and on again, and you’ll see a list of games displayed on the Virtual Boy screen.
From a technical standpoint, it’s fairly simple. It features a 32Mbit Flash memory, which allows for games like Hyper Fighting, and an SRAM chip for save data storage.
As with other flash carts, you’ll need an original game to harvest the connector—and in my case, also the main shell and the connector cover.
I’d like to thank Planet Virtual Boy, libgccvb (KR155E), and everyone who has shared information about the Virtual Boy online—thanks to all of you, I was able to learn and bring this project to life.
Special thanks to albertoven for creating the menu for the console, and to my family and friends for putting up with me during this whole process.
