Split out your reply to a separate topic to stay on discuss these issues separately.
I noticed that there were two replies of yours in the “pending” state. After some digging, the issue seems to be that these were considered possible spam due to including two links. That setting was a bit tucked away, so I am glad you brought up the topic and forced me to find it. Set it to 100+ links now instead of 2+, I hope this solves the issue.
Now, hearing about old posts missing is unsettling, however I have not seen this to be the case anywhere, yet. Could you give an example?
Regarding the user ranks and badges, I agree. I want to bring those back eventually, but I’d like to have a better system to determine a user’s rank than just the number of posts. This feature is not very high up on the TODO list currently, though.
Hey Fwow13, glad you found your way back! I hope the new site will be a much more pleasant experience.
There is currently no collections feature on the new site, but it will be back eventually, with the old site’s collections imported. Actually, I had a working implementation, but it was really lackluster – I can do much better.
– Better presentation
– Better image upload
– Better integration with site (“Collect” button on game pages)
– Status per item (Incomplete, complete or sealed)
– Multiples (maybe)
– Allow collecting of merchandise
– Allow collecting of unlicensed stuff like HyperFlash32 or “official” physical homebrew releases
Let me know if there’s any other things I could add. 🙂
Oh nice, an update! Check out this thread for more info: https://www.virtual-boy.com/forums/t/dragon-hopper-fan-game/
Attached the ROM to this post for preservation.

Boom! Well, if that’s not a great way to return, I don’t know! <3
Wow! These are getting better and better with every single label! I am stoked.

believe it or not the trick works, just go to “Top Score” wait a second and press up up down down left left right right B and then A and bingo! ¡the message to erase data will appear, do not click the links but the trick works even if you don’t believe it
I totally missed this back in November. It’s really rare that new, undocumented features are discovered in Virtual Boy games! So, even though there are a few other ways to erase save data, this is a very cool find! 🙂
Have been considering this, too. I think the best way would be to have a classified ads section on the site where every member can post ads to buy, sell or trade Virtual Boy stuff. It would function sort of like a shop and should be a much cleaner and more visible way for people to offer their stuff.
For example, Kevin could use it as a store front for his products like HyperFlash32, NES Freak could offer his repair services, eventually we can sell our TeamVUEngine games there and of course it would be a good way to sell authorized CIBs of homebrew games.
Furthermore, if it’s not PVB itself that is offering stuff for sale, but users doing private business without any mediation fees, then this can stay a non-commercial site and I won’t have to look into the legal side, pay taxes on it and shit. 😉
That’s great and a good choice for the default labels IMHO. I like these. 🙂
Just one remark: the L shaped block on the V-Tetris label is wrong, it should consist of only 4 of these small squares.
Here’s that font. Made from the VIRTUAL BOY logo on the official adjustment screen. Most likely too large for the HyperFlash display, but I’ll post it here anyway, and be it only for archival purposes. 😉

If I ever find the time to learn VUEngine and get back into VB dev, my games will all have a label based on this :thumpup:
Thank you, RunnerPack! It would be awesome to see you back in virtual business! Let me know when you fancy to get into VUEngine so we can set you up with the latest tools. 🙂

Congrats everybody! I hope to see more quality labels produced in the future, so we can compile complete sets of labels for all commercial and homebrew games. 🙂
Forgot to post my label template BTW, so here it is.

Tried to come up with something as well. The black text on the bottom is meant to be printed by the firmware, filename probably?
EDIT: Changed from an equally distributed to the suggested palette.

Nice find! Thanks for the scan! 🙂
Some years ago, I found the personal website of a Japanese game developer who claimed to have worked on Dragon Hopper. After my own attempts to get in touch remained fruitless, I asked a native Japanese speaker to try their luck and send a message. Haven’t heard of them anymore afterwards, I think, and the website no longer exists.
Is that some original music you composed in the background? Sounds pretty nice!
Wow RMZK, your entry is awesome! Morintari’s Galactic Pinball one as well. 🙂
There are many other good ones, but crisp original artworks like these are quite the eye catcher IMHO.
Hey Martin! I got my VBs solder fixed by TheForce81, based in the Netherlands. Great guy, recommended! https://www.planetvb.com/modules/usercenter/index.php?section=profile&uid=1229
