Would love to purchase physical boxes and manuals, but I’m guessing that isn’t in the cards. High quality scans would be nice, but I guess that would be up to whoever created them – I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes!

Just want the box and manual for my collection. Have a friend in Japan who would probably want them too.

Thanks. I guess I should have been more clear – I am familiar with SF II (who isn’t???), but I wasn’t sure if it was the arcade version (unlikely), the SNES, or some other console. I was a big fan of the Genesis, but I wasn’t into fighting games at the time, so didn’t own this game. Might have to pick up a copy of the Genesis version.

Slightly off-topic – can anyone point me to a FAQ for the game this is based on? Thx.

Sweet!

Sounds good to me.

Very cool – but the Youtube videos don’t work.

Great – thanks! Will try to get those to you in the next few days.

Looking good!

Thanks for posting those. Just to be clear – those are for the small platform display, NOT the countertop or floor-standing display. Tho the graphics are similar, the dimensions are different.

Thanks for the offer, Blue, but I’m not looking for anything else right now. Other than VB, I’m kind of out of gaming (other than the Pinball Arcade app on my iPad – awesome!). But I’ll see what I can do about getting high-res scans made, so people can print their own.

Benjamin: the one that has Wario on it is on the flip side of the one that’s all about Wario (not the one listing different games).

Ooops! I realized there was something on the back of the Japanese ads, so I pulled them out again – here’s a pic of the backs of all 3. Apologies for the glare.

Here are pics of the ads I have for the floor-standing display. Some are (obviously) Japanese.

I believe the Japanese ones are blank on the back, but I forgot to double-check when I had them out. As for the US ones – the backs of all of those are the Virtual Boy on black background that you see in the pic by itself. Interestingly, on some of those, the paper is printed on both sides (ad on one side, VB on black on the other). On others, it’s all printed on one side of one double-wide sheet, then folded in half. (The back is blank.)

The US ones are printed on thick paper (card stock?). The JP ones are on thin, cheapo paper.

I do have a duplicate of one of the US ads, but it’s NFS. I would be willing to trade it for one I don’t have.

You have a BUNCH of them? Would you ever consider selling some US ads? It would be awesome to make it all original.

Sorry – NFS. But I’ll try to put up some photos this weekend. Maybe we can actually get a complete inventory going of all the variations.

As for Canada – I don’t recall the VB being sold there, but maybe my memory is going.

I have a bunch of the US and Japanese ads that go in these displays. Been meaning to try to get them scanned, so I can share them with the group, but I don’t have a clue how to get something this large scanned, and it really needs to be a flatbed – don’t want to risk having them damaged by a scanner feeder. Anyone in the DC area have a clue where to get them scanned?

That seems like a great site for buying incredibly outdated technology.

I see they also have 10 “open box” FaxViews for $41.99 each:

The description says it “connects to cellular and landline phones.” Just how does it connect to a cellular phone?

Interesting device.

Did the Entex Adventure Vision use the RTI display, or was it made by someone else?

I love that they show the battery box with what appears to be a mix of rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries. Ooops!

The reason it’s so difficult to find a loose copy is that Japanese gamers are notorious for taking care of their games. Unlike their US counterparts, they’ll rarely toss the box and manual, and even well-used games will look like new. So you’re much more likely to find a complete set, rather than a loose cart.
