I got a nice package from france a while ago.
The VGA Version works great so far.
I tried it on a shitty Projector on the house wall.
Picture was aprox 3 meters. Very cool 😀

Anyway, I noticed, that for some reason there are a few pixels cut from the bottom. Is this supposed to be?

Otherwise awesome work!
With two projectors I could propably even project a 3D anaglyph picture.

How is it looking on the VB Emulator front?
I got the feeling everthing has slowed down quite a bit. 🙁

I am so excited about that and hope it will be a success!! This would be my no. 1 reason to buy a 3DS 🙂

Do you guys know if this pjoject is also promoted on social media (facebook, youtube) so that Guy Perfect may get more supporters and of course money for this project via patreon membership?

Like I said before, the 500USD and more would be already together if the poeple would have something to play with.
That planned debugging features are spot on, no question about that but right now it is just to much theory and has very little use for the usual gamer. But those are who will pay.

We need to be realistic here. The debugger material will be used by maybe 100 people in the next 3 years. It is Virtual Boy afterall.
The Nintendo 3DS is nearing its end of lifespan. People will start to loose interest in that platform at one point. This could render the 3DS VB Emu idea quite useless. Of course there will be a 3DS homebrew scene going on after the 3DS death but the usual gamer has long moved on to try the newest hacks on the switch or the next HyperGameboy.

Also I read your posts here very carefully and what I learned is that you do the usual Coder thing. You code a thing and smash it down again just to code it again in the hopes to make it better.
That is not a bad thing but that can get a bad thing if you repeat that to much. I know very well that coders are never satisfied with their own code. After a week they always find something to trash it again. I have seen it many many times and in the commercial sector somebody will step in at one point and say it is good enough because otherwise you step on the same spot forever and nothing moves on. The project is now like 4 month in and is is still about Debugger Windows.

I really would suggest to alter the roadmap a bit and focus first on things which brings you the needed support and cash.

I accept your apology. 😛

That doesn’t change the fact, that the color is quite different.
I would even say, that the purple they used for that prototype was not so nice. Is no surprise that this color did not survive.
I would leave the Controller black. That saves you much trouble.

It is cool to see the support here.
Today I saw the community Cart Dumper the first time here.
Looks solid, should be easy to work with.
What I also saw on that picture was the Flashboard.
Would be interesting to know why it is called “Bound High – 2” on it.

( Also, I say gameCube purple is the way to go. Hehe. )

Sorry, but no it is not.

For Nintendo the VB was a failure. I do not think they will release something VB related. If they do, it would be a huge surprise.
Okay they never ignored the VB completely. In some games like Super Smash Bros, Animal Crossing or MiiTomo you get 3D models of the VB. But I doubt they touch the games.
Nintendo directly released only like 8 games. The rest was released by other publishers.
On top of that they see it as a failed system, they probably don’t see any reason to write a emulator for just 8 games.
The remaining games would require extra licencing and stuff.
I guess they just don’t want to divert any workforce to such a task, otherwise they would have done it already. Afterall the 3DS is the perfect system to (re)present the games with much better playability.
Like Krisse said, the only way we see it on a 3DS we neede to do it ourself. That is also why I pushed so hard for a VB emulator.

@Krisse, that Super Mario Clash 3D seems to be down on his page.

In this picture

the Buildings(?) with the windows, are these the natural boundary of the level?
Also this is just one and the same Sprite repeated right?

Broken Sound chip?

Very nice progress here.
Also thank you to that guy who donated a huge sume to keep it running for a few month.
The Patreon also looks quite okay so far.
But it will still going slow there until there is something playble on screen.
People from GBATemp for example are mostly not very interested in deep technicial information. They only want to knew as much as what is needed to hack your system to play emulators or roms. They don’t care about Worlds or VIP functions.
Most of them were babys or not born when the VB was available.
So they only act upon sensation and on what they can see and touch.
It will propably take a bit more time before patreon brings in money more frequently.

Yeah, it is doing that for quite some time now.

That is a nice find and creates hope for other still unreleased games. So far all games which got presented on a trade show back then ended up on one of this cardrige sized flash boards.
Nintendo always tried to use final looking hardware on tradeshows.
So if for example Dragon Hopper or Zero Racers was playble on a Tradeshow at one point, chances are high that more of this stuff has survived.
Also it is more unlikely that such stuff leaks from Nintendo directly. Stuff from Tradshows or game journalists are more likely.
Chances however to see that surfaced are slim or it takes some time. The last VB prototype game before this BH Board was quite some time back.
A lot of VB related Material located in japan and I heard several times that they have some very obscure collectors who would never part with stuff. They do not even want that somebody knows what they have. Makes no sense to me.
Some do not even consider preservation which is highly stupid when it comes to games on Disk, flash from that time or Eproms.

Regarding Bound High itself. Will be interesting to see how the roms will compare. Gamewise it will propably the same but maybe the rom contains some unused materials or so.

Yeah, wanted to buy the last box but well… no paypal on the site possible and I don’t have a credit card. 🙁

Nice.

I own a BB case to. Never patted with it.
But mine missing the sticker on the front.
Can somebody provide a Picture or scan of it? Thanks

They do but even with this, it would not even come anywhere close. The buyee fees are more or less okay. I buy often there.

What I can tell you straight is that the prices for VB Items on ebay are nonsense and nobody should buy it there!

There was a time when you just went to buyee/Yahoo auction and get the stuff. Now the japanese put all their stuff on ebay and add ridiculous amounts of money on the asking price + asking scarya amounts for shipping.
Here is a very good example right now:
(also made screenshots just in case)

Buyee:
http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/u145560835
11 Games 160 USD

And now have a look at ebay!
https://www.ebay.de/itm/VIRTUAL-BOY-11-game-Lot-Japan/182876517739?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131017132637%26meid%3D1b1ad75c772d45c39ace42b6c9d393a9%26pid%3D100033%26rk%3D8%26rkt%3D8%26sd%3D302669499537%26itm%3D182876517739&_trksid=p2045573.c100033.m2042

Same picturs, same games double the price plus shipping!
This is a general Ripoff and they all do this on ebay now.
People are asking for 400 USD for a boxed VB.
This prices are not justified at all because there is enough supply left.
The same goes for games Like Mario Clash japanese. This was a common a cheap game and still is but they sell it for like 80 USD or more BUT show a full factory box of like 20 new copies of the game and writing RARE! Fuck them!
In my oppinon, we really should make a PVB post on the front page letting people know what kind of scam is going on with VB items on ebay!

@GuyPerfect
cool, cant wait to get the ball rolling 🙂

the ronin gambler, Vampire Ryu 😀

mhm that Tile Editor, cool. need to check that out.

Hrhrhrhr.
Well that would be actually a cool story for a game 😀
Ninja Brawler style break in Nintendo HQ for lost games.
At the end you are in front of the open Vault with so many cool stuff. But you are only able to take one item.
