100 is a pretty exact guess. So we already got twice as many preorders as we’ll have units. But it happened often in the past, that people preordered a FlashBoy, but then did not want one anymore/already got one/did not have money anymore etc, when the FlashBoys were ready. So there’s a slim chance that people at the bottom of the list may get a FlashBoy after all.
Because of all those preorders we are already thinking about another batch, but after the upcoming one, I’ll be out of donor carts…
You guys have pretty humble dreams, I sometimes dream of finding a huge box of yet unknown VB prototypes and goodies at a random flea market or a friend. 😀
Well, the directive for me was to only include only officially released, commercial products related to the Virtual Boy. Here and there I stretched the border a bit by including the demo taps for example, but the border had to be set somewhere. If I started to include everything that’s out there, there would be no end. 🙁 So I choose to simply add the “Other” boxes.
BTW, nice collection, RidingHero! Would you mind sharing scans of the mexican games? I have been looking for those for a while.
20 Euro donation sent your way KR155E! 🙂
Please let me know if you feel that’s reasonable.
My serial on my beat up box is #273, my cart will be much happier sleeping in a new home. 😎
Oh, that’s very reasonable, thanks! I will send you an extra nice box, I still have one fully assembled with all the extras in it. ;D Please PM me your address to send it to.
Nice glasses! Do you have some yourself, Dan? I’d like to get a pair or two, but I want to make sure it’s the right colors. Those on the glasses I have are not fully correct. Might be an issue with my monitor settings, but I can’t get it right.

OK, I changed it to two. I don’t really understand the red and blue lines Mednafen is showing, though. I suppose it won’t look like that in a real Virtual Boy?
No, it won’t. 😉 It’s showing the images for both eyes at the same time, red for one eye, blue for the other. That way you can simulate the VB’s 3D if you have appropriately colored 3D glasses.

What if we just wanted to buy the box instead of trading?
Yeah, that’d be OK, I have a few extra ones which I don’t need anymore. It just might take me a while to send out the boxes and I would send them unbuild. Shipping to the US would be 6 EUR. I am not sure how much to charge for the box. The box itself did only cost around 3 EUR IIRC but I also need to buy envelopes and spend some time picking them up at my parents and going to the post office. 😉

Maybe would you consider a small site donation?
Site donation are of course always welcome. 😉

Also, just curious, is it your handwriting for the serial numbers? As a collector, I wouldn’t have the heart to write the serial number in myself on my replacement box! lol 🙂
Yep, it’s mine. If you let me know your serial, I’ll write it on for you.
I extended the stylesheet and cconverted the font a few other formats like eot (for Internet Exploder), woff and svgz to get the highest possible compatability.
Let me know if it works well with your setups. 🙂
BTW, about Chrome/the underlying WebKit: it’s really pushing new CSS developments lately. A few cool ones I know of, which are currently by any other browsers, are transitions and reflections.
You’re right! I thought it was set to normal font-weight and it was the font itself that was bold, but it just inherited the bold from another CSS class. Better now. 🙂
Heh, Antoine, I tipped exactly the same outcomes as you did. 🙂 (Plus third place match Spain – Uruguay 2:1).
If you saw the matches against England and Argentina, there can be no doubt that Germany can beat both Spain and the Netherlands. IMHO, we currently have one of the best german teams ever – if not the best, it’s really a pleasure watching them play. I am looking foward to a great final against our dutch friends and neighbors. 🙂
