That’s awesome

I do take my Virtual Boy out and about, but I never go anywhere unique!

Realized it would be more Asteroid-y if the loading bar was inverted. So here’s that option.

Here’s a loading bar icon file too.

I never claimed that the sequence was new, only that I personally never realized that it changed slightly each time.

Not sure what you are trying to prove to me with the video link, but it’s cool that you were working on creating the unreleased JPN version.

It’s the same five blocks each time and they line up the same each time, they just come into the screen at random starting points and tumble randomly to get their respective places in the opening line up.

You can check out the magazine mentions in the articles tab

Awesome news and a great surprise! Thanks to everyone that made this happen!

Here are some HyperFlash/HyperBoy labels I made for it.

I’ll be throwing some more money at the fund – disheartening to hear only 16% has been financially recouped.

Fantastic!

Wow!

Awesome addition to the website!

You can go on a deep dive into this project which specifically centers on creating stereoscopic images for viewing on the Virtual Boy.

VUE-MASTER

I’m not sure there’s any quick and easy way to just load up an image.

Some eInk labels for those that want them and have RetroOnyx flashcarts.

Looks great!

Love the dino icon!

Looks amazing, looking forward to a full release of this game!

Big thanks to RetroOnyx for funding this and for the VUEngine team for making it a reality!

Does it give you a random word every time? With no save functionality, it won’t just repeat the same series of words the next time I boot the game up, will it?

(This is awesome btw)

Looks great, can’t wait to try it out!

Is there a link to play this in the site’s web emulator?

My OEM stands allow for my Virtual Boy units to easily clip in from either direction. I have one replacement stand (from Hyperkin’s “Repair Box”) and it seems to be identical (aside from any Nintendo branding) but will only allow any of my Virtual Boys to easily clip in backwards.

I have found that I can “slide” the head unit into the replacement stand clip at a very direct angle and sort of pop it into place to get it on the correct way.

Thank you for doing a video on soldering the ribbon cables.

If you have a flash cart, I would recommend grabbing the VUE-Master “Color Test No. 1” rom off the site. (https://www.virtual-boy.com/homebrew/vue-master/downloads/) It has full screen solid color images for each shade of red, and is really useful for finding dead or dim lines in the displays.

Otherwise, as far as retail carts go, I generally use Mario Clash for troubleshooting. It has a bright, full-screen opening, and is one of the games that makes sound right from boot (on the precautions screen). Makes for a good test cart.

Even if I disagree with your lukewarm stance on soldering the cables to the display boards, you did a great job here with this video. Hope it helps people that are brave enough to attempt it!
