I’m pretty sure Paypal holds the money for 60 days for new accounts, or until confirmed delivery. As long as the people don’t wait over 60 days to complain when it doesn’t arrive the guy won’t get any money. At least that’s how I remember it when I first sold stuff on ebay.
That sounds about right. He must think that if he quickly deletes an account after a sale, he’ll get to keep his money and run away scot-free, but that’s not how it works.
Jockey Zero for Playstation seems to be Right Stuff’s commercial release for what was originally going to be Virtual Jockey on Virtual Boy.

Some sort of scam, or at least something very fishy, occurred there. The seller of the $110.00 auction had zero feedback, and that seller used the same photos from this previous auction:
I guess if you’re having trouble deciding which games to cover first, you could cover them roughly in the order they got released. I think Virtual Pong, 3D BattleSnake, Simon!, Tic Tac Toe, and BLOX were the earliest ones.

I will only buy a Virtual Boy book that has been done by Benjamin Stevens.
LOL! I was actually thinking about making a PDF book just on the unreleased Virtual Boy games, but I’m not sure if or when I might get around to that.
I own an original, complete-in-box Virtual Bowling in very good condition.

Do we know if those are in-store yet? I see a few on ebay at inflated prices.
I picked up Galaga and Dig Dug today at a Wal-Mart near my workplace.
So I wonder if this means that Defender will only be available as a cabinet hack.
It’s really cool to see the detailed marketing plan. Thanks for the share!
Very nice! I am very curious to follow this video series as it unfolds!
That looks pretty sweet. Not sure how practical it’d be, but looks nice anyway.

That AVGN episode is what made me aware of the console’s existence and got me hooked on it and eventually led me here.
Heh… I’m a bit reversed from that. My interest in the Virtual Boy caused me to find and watch that AVGN episode, and then I became a fan of the AVGN.
Great to see this brought to fruition!
Derek, the producer, had actually reached out to me by e-mail, in order to see if I had ever found out anything about the alleged prototype cartridge of Acclaim’s localization for the North American market, since I had tried to reach out to the administrator at Assembler Games who had originally posted about seemingly having it in his possession, but I had to give Derek the unfortunate news that after that original post, said administrator strangely remains completely quiet about it, at least publicly, to this day.
I missed this round of Ms. Pacs at my local store, but I managed to get their next to last Felix. Looks like I’ll have to attack it old-school and do some store hopping soon.
I guess 11 and 12 means there’s still hope for the 9? Or else surely they would have down-numbered one of these to fill the gap.
I also prefer Waterworld over Virtual Lab, Virtual League Baseball, and Virtual Fishing.
It is very difficult for me to see a clear 3D image by crossing my eyes, but I’ve managed to do it. It is much easier for me to see a 3D image by diverging my eyes.

I actually have one or two of these 3D Must See TV brochures in a box of Nintendo brochures that I had collected back in the day. I had no idea that they had any value to them. I just collected them because I was weird and the only one of my friends who was into Virtual Boy at the time.
Do any of your brochures still have the entry form attached?
I also watched a YouTube video for Tetris Effect with over 4.2 million views, in which it was stated that the game allows you “for the first time in Tetris history actually to clear more than 4 lines at once.”
Ignoramus…
