Not to my knowledge, at least labels are out by SuperBros.

Regarding the 32MBit compatibility:
Well known MrFlower checked the design and concluded that 32MBit will not work, i.e. assemblying 2x16MBit EPROMs.
You can brake the roms, due to “bus contention”.

I wanted to let people know.

Thanks to MrFlower for his efforts!

WOW!!! Thank you for this!
I CAN`T WAIT!

I would love to see it released the 26th of August.
But I am with you. It is hardly predictable.

Well it is a very well made nice little game, even in this development stage!
I like the enemy variety, and it even has an ending outro and screen, very nice looking!
Here are some screenshots and a short video:

Wow! Very nice! Please keep us updated.

And you simply pulled out the pins from the donor connector and put it into your flexible 3d printed connector and soldered them onto the PCB?

Super Bros made a nice looking one, I wanted to share it here with his permission:

So was the total build count 25 pcs. in total in the end? Also for the cartridge itself or only the CIB package?

I also have lots of problems with my HF32 cart (screen not working, loading ROMs not working,..). Perhaps I also should try this!

Is there any label for this English translation with “Virtual Fishing” writing available?

Luckily we both have the small Japanese display stand, so no chance to mount the stand in the wrong orientation 😉

I updated my Pong instruction booklet to the 1.44DX version (different tracklist and some minor other corrections).

Another short video with 16Mbit, this time the “Underwater Demo”. It is a bit better than the Zero Racers Dragon Hopper trailer in my opinion.
It is hard to capture it in images. So try it out 🙂
Sadly still 2D. This must have been impressive back then in 1994 in 3d!

Thanks to MrFlower´s help I could make my own video out of the Nintendo Classics Overview Trailer with the Dragon Hopper and Zero Racers section.
So far without any sound. And with 12.5 FPS to get 16MBit for Flashboy+ users.

I tried running the .bat file and get this help screen.
When entering my video file name a movie player opens and plays the video.
That´s it.
Which command shall I input to get a converted 3d video? I don´t understand.

EDIT: it somehow proceeded further, don´t know why.
I now have a frames folder, a .mkv file of my input video and a mp3.
What to do next?
In the frames folder there are only “VideoR” files. Is this normal? Or is this because I have chosen 12.5 FPS instead of 25 FPS?

Thank you very much for sharing and all your work for the VB community!
I need to check this out.
One question upfront (and I am sorry if this is one of these questions “It will ask you a few simple questions.”): can one set the size/length of the video so that is possibly can be played via 32Mbit flashcart? It sure will then only be a few seconds long, but I really want to see it on real console.

[abarth]

I would say then that the internals of the Flashboy have a problem.
I had games from Vintex which stopped working after a while because of poorly soldered diodes.
You could open the cart and gently (!) press on the diodes to see if it starts working again.

Btw, if I read your name correctly I assume you are from France and you seem to now have a VB 😉 I was the one shipping you a VB from Germany, which never arrived. I am still wating for any reimbursement btw, never received any information from Hermes besides the “yes, we are looking for your parcel”, which is now more than two weeks old…

Have you tried the downloadable software for flashing ROMs and see if this helps?

FlashBoy Loader

Would you mind adding some detailed photos of the stickers?
I might have interest in one or another.
Thank you!

Yes, you would need to have a Nintendo Switch 2, a “Virtual Boy Expansion” accessory and NSO.

VB carts will sure somehow popup after release of the ROM.

Not sure if someone can restore the writing to Dragon Hopper, there are not many people out there capable of modifying those file types. But given the fact that this is the most wanted game ever, I assume one will be found 😉
