Can you please ask David more about Design Phase. Specifically this website of theirs, actually shows the VB award you recently sold, and says they designed the VB kiosk. All of the paperwork and story from David prove otherwise. Can you help me understand why the Design Phase website would say all this? https://mirror.virtual-boy.com/www.dphase.com/Portfolio/Port_VB/port_vb.html
Hello! What an awesome opportunity! Here are my questions
1. have you heard of ImagiCorps? Seems they submitted a prototype VB kiosk design to Nintendo, and ultimately Nintendo didnt choose them and went with your company Design Phase. (Details here https://www.virtual-boy.com/forums/t/imagicorps-virtual-boy-store-display-unit/)
2. What was the typical timeline from the moment Nintendo asked for a kiosk, to prototype, to mass production?
3. Do you have any materials left for the VB kiosk design documents? Or any design documents so we can understand the process better. Did Nintendo give you exactly what they wanted or did they give you free range to design what you wanted as long as it met a smaller set of technical requirements?
4. Was the manufacturing cost of a kiosk for Design Phase a main part of the chosen design? Did Design Phase manufacture the kiosks as well, or just design them, give the technical data to Nintendo, and Nintendo went and manufactured the kiosks?
Thanks for this opportunity!

Yay! Happy to be here for the 30th!
Super cool find! Im shocked that any part of the released games isnt documented after 29 years…
Whoa!!!! Incredible! When/how can we order?!
Im also on the PVB discord with the same username, dudeway4. Instagram as well dudeway4retro. Those are easiest way to get ahold of me! Let’s chat soon!
I recently acquired two Mexican CIBs, which had their Spanish instructions. The Mario Clash Spanish instructions are exactly as the others I have seen photographs online of, they are white copied paper. The Galactic Pinball Spanish instructions I have though seem to be completely different. Its a very thin paper, and has logos for Nintendo and Itochu on the bottom! I suspect this is one of the original Spanish instructions, and the others were just copied from these originals. This is just my thought and I welcome any input!
I found a sealed card! It has a holographic sticker included of Mario with a tennis racket!

I can help get you started with games and accessories. I have a decent pile for sale. Just search my name in our discord and reach out. Most of what I have is also on the Market portion of the discord group.
I found these online from a Japanese second hand shop who seem to sell mostly recycle bags. It brings the question… what else is out there waiting to be found!
Not all pics posted. Try #2.

At this point, I just wish the OP could change the title of the forum post…because everytime i see the “dragon hopper has been found” title I freak out a bit..
…..so referring to my above theory….. and the fact that…. I JUST FOUND WHAT I THINK IS THE LAST CARD IN THIS SET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This brings my own collection to 9, and PVB archive to 10!
