Thanks Ben, I didn’t realise this was available already!

16 GBA must plays –

– WarioLand 4
– Astro Boy Omega Factor
– MegaMan Zero 3
– MegaMan & Bass (if not already played on SNES)
– Ninja Cop
– Drill Dozer
– Metroid Fusion
– Metroid Zero Mission
– Zelda: Minish Cap
– Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
– Final Fantasy Tactics
– Wario Ware, inc.
– Mother 3 (English translation)
– Sonic Advance 3
– Gunstar Super Heroes
– Mario Kart Super Circuit

Lots of good SNES ports, but I kept out some that are already very well known and usually played (like Zelda Link to the Past).

There are many more great games. These are just my favourites I would always recommend in a flash to fans of action & adventure.

Posting this for relevance – popped up in my subscriptions on the way home form work yesterday: https://youtu.be/s9EAzJMMJp4

I thought there already was a VB tracker of sorts in existence, used in homebrew?

Loved my Game Gear when I had it, and remember the carts and cases also having a nice design, so glad to see this works.

Tricky for VB, the rotated cart would bother me and I need dust caps on all my carts for semi-OCD reasons.

So I just used little baggies myself, but I love that this works!

The red looks very nice indeed 🙂

I’m rubbish at soldering but would pick up a few to have a go! 🙂

He doesn’t have any VB pins, just a Famicom Disk System, but funnily enough I am working on a VB pin that I’m hoping you guys will like.

Just making it for myself but maybe others will want them.

Give me a month and I’ll have something to share!

I believe he ships globally, I would be surprised if not.

Grabbed some pins from him before and those were shipped globally.

In my experience, it’s usually stateside sellers that (some) prefer not to ship internationally, because of the challenges. But Australia is not large enough to limit to national shipping only, so I wouldn’t have that concern at this stage.

There are indeed some in here – but probably not everything you’re looking for:

That is pathetically fake and a complete bullsheet claim.

Someone tried something similar years back with a Michael Jackson SEGA CD title, and was soon put in their place as a misleading scammer.

I lolled at “shown to investors” – that’s not how the games industry works kiddo…

Thanks very much for this Ben – I will try and get a JP version translated to complement the sheer effort put into all of this.

I’d be in on this Day One!

Two copies, so that you can use the two player function maybe?

Yes indeed in my case, as I’m lucky enough to have two JP Virtual Boys (one mosaic) that do get played and enjoyed especially when friends come over. Add that the VB was never released over here of course, let alone SF2.

SF2 is also my favourite game on the planet – I pretty much own every main version of it – including the arcade board, the JP Hyper SF2 Collectors Edition, a special MegaDrive custom ROM cart, and some other stuff like the original styleguide for SF2 licensing way back which is an amazing piece of literature and a great resource piece.

So just to clarify – none of this eBay nonsense, I’ve been here long enough to hope I’m reasonably well trusted. I also want to make a custom box that is like a Collector’s Edition of sorts, if I can. I think that would be cool to see.

I’d definitely be down for two copies!

Hello – I come back to the forum regularly but somehow missed this?

I had my name jotted down on a wait list I thought, but what’s the process to get in on the next batch?!

Would REALLY love at least one cable and happy to buy a few even if it helped.

I’m genuinely surprised that was a natural bid – Yamatoku are notorious for shill bidding, but that would explain why there aren’t tens of bid retractions on your account, like there usually is 🙂

But it does make me wonder, why not just snipe the item in the end, if you wanted to snag it? If no-one else had bid over $500 you could have gotten it for less, assuming Yamatoku didn’t shill bid.

Virtual Bowling ending soon – HOWEVER it’s worth noting this has been shill-bidded to hell as per all Yamatoku’s high ticket items.

Check 2nd highest, that has 100% bid activity with this seller, and what a surprise bidded up from $8 to $500.

God, don’t let Benjamin see this.

Looks amazing – hats off! 🙂

I would say it’s value IMO is essentially as an official test cart.

I see they have a. I have the GBA, GB, GBC, and NDS (NOJ) flashcarts.

But I don’t feel the cost is justified either… In fact I’d say VB collector item prices are way higher than even NES – because of the scarcity and the fact you main guys seem to be happy to pay a lot for things.
