Original Post

I’ve heard of a few Animes that have shown the Virtual Boy in certain episodes (as well as other consoles, but this isn’t a PSP fan site, is it? πŸ˜‰ ) doesn’t this count as an Virtual Boy “Appearance” of a sort? If the Virtual Boy sightings in Videogames like “the Simpsons Game” can be counted (which those are also not “real” Virtual Boy sightings) why not Virtual Boy sightings in Anime?

This is a Virtual Boy fan site after all… right? πŸ˜›

Animes can be found on the Virtual Boy cameos page: http://www.planetvb.com/modules/misc/?c

There’s currently only one, “A.I. Love You”, please let me know of any other you hear of. πŸ™‚

Hmm, I think the “Virtual Boy in Hollywood” page should be merged into the “Cameos” page, since it’s both “cameos”, or “appearances”.

I once thought it was cool that you could still discover new content on this site even after being around for a while, but practically hiding content like this does not really make sense to me anymore. So, for PVB4 (hint, hint), I really have to give the whole article structure a rethink for easier access.

P.S.: Topic moved to PVB forum.

Its funny that you say that, because just a few minutes before I read this reply to this topic, I thought of how new content to this site (magazine articles, Virtual Boy cameos, etc.) could be overlooked by people for months before someone notices its there, due to the lack of any sort update news for small bits of content (but then I thought of how you are always busy, so it makes sense why that doesn’t exist… (yet?))

Also, I had no idea there was going to be a PVB4 (I thought this was the “Final” site design?)

This site runs on a long outdated content management system; the last system update I did was about 5 years ago, so we’ll switch to something up to date. It’s all still in planning and testing stages, though.

You’re right about the smaller updates… I will try to take care of that in the next version. It would be really easy to display the last updated pages when each page stores edit dates, so maybe small update notices can be shown on the front page in between news items.

Here’s one, from Maria Holic. No game console allowed in the dorm, except… guess what? =D

Another one, also Maria Holic. Note also the Dreamcast, Pocketstation, Power Glove and some VCR-looking console.

This link isn’t to an Anime appearance, but I realized the Virtual Boy sighting in Frasier (at 1:47 of that video) isn’t mentioned on this site

Also, that one Anime appearance ShinigamiPR mentioned and shown a picture of on the Head-mounted Virtual Boy news article’s comments section should count too, right? (said Anime series is called “The World God Only Knows”)
