I hope everyone understand what just happened. I really do.

Someone..possibly from this board. Traded a few carts for a bound high..and is now trying to sell it for a 200 dollar profit.

No more commercial cart repros from our only cart maker. Someone just bent over the whole community cuz of greed.

Thanx for the kind words guys.

Right now..it just takes some time and the willingness to have a good wife that doesn’t mind spending money on a shirt you won’t wear..or a pen you won’t use.

-Eric

I also liked virtual fighter 2 and the 2 virtual cops.

-Eric

That’s it for now. I have plenty of more stuff, but I’m in picture ‘overload’ atm 🙂

Another blockbuster cardboard sign. This one is made to fold over a table. Smaller then you would think (maybe 14 inches long or so). This is where the entry forms for the ‘must see 3-d’ contest were held.

The demo here cardboard sign was pretty cool to get..it’s great that it was actually never used and folded over.

Got some vintage shirts in..pretty hard to find. The tie dye one is my favorite so far..it look’s great from both sides. Not sure the best way to display them in my limited area.

Had a bunch of stuff arrive this week. What I was most excited about getting was the virtual boy metal pens..never even knew they existed.

The only ones i’ve seen are the oversized boxes on ebay. We have a box maker currently getting the boxes and manuals done. I think the current time table is a month til he’s done.

-Eric

A better question…when am I not on here 😛

-Eric

He’s in Canada, a lot of these only ship to the US. Maybe he just needs someone to bid and ship it to him ?

-Eric

This is what the site has on it:

Not worth nearly that much. I paid 10 dollars for mine a few months ago..but it isn’t in the wrapper.

One pin sold for a bunch of cash..it was a bidding war. Now everyone one is trying to sell that thing for 100’s of dollars. I’d put a value of 50-60 on it at the most. It scares me abit that he has 5 offers on it…maybe i’m way off ???

-Eric

btw..never seen the ‘silver’ version of it before

Can’t wait to see what you come up with 🙂

I never really thought about it before. I just assumed that the Japanese demo’s would be made up of the first vboys run..so people could demo them before they were sold. I thought that is why they had different boxes..that the box design changed after the demo’s were made. BUT..indeed..looking at my demo unit the serial number is V10036943.

So the grey boxes were made specifically just for the demo units ? so the red/black boxes were made before and after the demo units were made ?

-Eric

Yea, it’s called a mosaic box. It’s the first run that was send to Japanese stores so they could set up display vboys. There’s also a mosaic adapter tap.

It’s scary to think that a sealed Jack Brothers might be coming up to Virtual Bowling’s price.

-Eric

I want to see all your new pretty stuff from your Japan trip Mawa :). I got a bunch of new stuff in..and some more stuff on the way. I don’t thin I’ll update my pictures til they come in and I figure out how to display them.

You can check out my current pics under my username and collection.
