That should fit in the prototype window without cutting off any graphics. I would suggest adding 3 more pixels of gray background to the right side, into the black border. Otherwise you might have a small strip of that black border peaking out along the right edge of the screen on the final production units.
When I’ve mentioned/recommended you I have linked to your eBay listing or I’ve just pointed them towards Planet Virtual Boy to look for Nes Freak.
Don’t know if you’ve had any new business thanks to me, but I know I’m not the only one mentioning you on Reddit!
If you are looking for where these guys are, Virtual Boy posts pop up in the r/retrogaming sub and (obviously) the r/VirtualBoy sub. Seems like there’s always a comment or two on posts about Virtual Boys saying that theirs doesn’t work. I make sure to point a big finger at you whenever someone mentions that they need to get theirs fixed.
I’m advertising your services on Reddit whenever it comes up, plenty of collectors out there posting their disappointment that their Virtual Boy units don’t work.
My first choice is to get mine working again. I’m sure there are some back connections in the controller (the components in these are extremely cheap). But If I can’t get it going again – I’ll definitely hit you up!
Hey, didn’t even realize that the service I used on eBay was NES Freak here!
Thanks for attempting to fix my awful ribbon cable (and my other one) and for the replacement when mine wasn’t salvageable! My VB looks great now, it’s been a long time since I’ve been able to play it! I’ve been on a Virtual Boy marathon for the past several days!
Though I think it would be legitimate either way, since you see either “www.nintendo.com” or “support.nintendo.com” on game covers and manuals now. (when looking to the “Need help…” section)
There’s something about it without the WWW that just doesn’t look right to me.
