Really, Protoman85? After all those reviews, no love for the Virtual Boy? 🙁
Dude, there’s a lot of consoles out there, most of them have more than 22 games too. I do love the Virtual Boy, but being completely honest, it has to rank out of the top 5.
Consoles I’d rank the Virtual Boy above:
Sega Master System
Sega CD
Sega 32X
TurboGrafx-16
Atari 5200
Atari 7800
Atari Jaguar
Atari XEGS
Apple/Bandai Pippin
Philips CD-i
3DO
Xbox
Playstation Vita
Nintendo 64DD
Colecovision
Intellivision
Commodore 64
Bally Astrocade
Fairchild Channel F
Odyssey
Odyssey 2
With a setting on the fill tool I got it to fill all colors with another color so to speak, thats why the background is all brown, which I will change later on.
Oh damn.. I totally missed playing this game for the homebrew showcase =S I have to add it. I have to play it on my own VB now though since i returned the good one…
I really like Super Mario 3D Land. The mix between 3D and 2D Mario games work really well, and I think I like it more than Super Mario 64, definately more than Sunshine (I dislike Mario Sunshine).
I will also be buying New Super Mario Bros 2. The “New Super Mario Bros” graphic style is getting old now, but a new 2D Mario title is always great, can’t pass that up.
My dream game for 3DS: A colorized remake of Virtual Boy Wario Land!

1.2 fixes only some parallax bugs. I’m aware that turning the VB off and on again too soon can cause glitches, and the title screen can appear scrambled. But other than that, I don’t know what you mean, as I myself used a FlashBoy Plus for testing. I’ve just played through the whole game and it seemed fine.
I’ll trust you and won’t complain if there’s glitchy graphics when I play then. When I tried it yesterday however most the ships started breaking up into glitches as soon as I fired anything… Super Bounce does the same, glitches out when the screen scrolls…
I’ll grab this version for reviewing right away. With the last version, there was plenty of graphical glitches. Is that due to being played on Flashboy or is it just a flaw? And is it fixed?
Good news, I’ve borrowed a friends Virtual Boy, which was ironically my Virtual Boy before I sold it to him. It works fine, so I will record all the games I have left, then work on the remaining reviews. Order:
1. The worst, Virtual Fishing, Waterworld and Virtual Lab
2. The best, Wario Land
3. The Homebrew games
4. Summary and ranking of all VB games.

On a pointless note… my Wii is red hahaha.
My Wii is also red. That’s probably why I can’t get it softmodded. Everything I tried failed. I think the red one has a version of the OS that is unmoddable… which is a damn shame =(
Most likely not. I asked before if it was possible to emulate/play NES/GB games on it, just to play them in Red ‘n’ Black really, and one of the foremost programmers here said no. So don’t bet on it.
