Here are the last couple episodes I’ve made:

Nester’s Funky Bowling: https://youtu.be/wUoLRxEJCfY

Mario’s Tennis: https://youtu.be/MF_6d8LOCDg

I love when the younger kids get into the VB and retro gaming in general. It’s adorable explaining bad pin connectors, how we used to blow and jiggle the games in the machine to get it to work lol My brother in law is about 8 years old and LOVES my retro games (especially the VB)

Of course it’s fine, anyone over 7 can safely play it.

Yeah, I think even younger is fine TBH. The warnings on the console were due to insufficient studies on lasers and eyes at the time and simple legal-ese to cover their asses as a company.

I have that same housecoat! :p

It’s soooo toasty! I live in this thing pretty much lol

Love the idea of this (and the rom you have)!

I don’t think I have anything THAT obscure other than my Virtual Girl and since I kinda made it, I don’t think that counts. Otherwise, I would have to say my SHARP NES TV is my gem. I haven’t set up my new game room but she’s at least out and on a TV stand.

This is the coolest! Shame I put out my video on the game when I did. This would have been helpful while recording for it lol.

The whole idea sounds amazing. You have no idea how happy I would be to finally have a proper Mario game on the system. If I can help in anyway please tell me how and I will try my best to make it so!

LOL it figures that this is discovered after I put out my review on it. That would’ve been an awesome little tidbit to add to the review. Awesome find vuefinder83!

Yeah, there ya go. I believe there’s even a ferry that will take you from Seattle to Victoria. It’s the south tip of the island, but hey, it’s direct to the island anyway.

Funny you mention that. I want to visit the toy museum over in Victoria and was planning on ways to get there lol.

I had a vacation in the Seattle area. It was 1994. We took the ferry from Port Angeles to Victoria. I think we ate at a restaurant called The Brickhouse while we stayed in Seattle for the night. I used to have a shirt from there. Is it still around?

I just did a quick search and it looks like there’s still a few locations open around here. Were they any good? I’m looking for good places to eat and visit.

That’s a super impressive job Fire-WSP! Fantastic job!

Always nice to move to a new place – hope you can also make use of the logo I found here (I didn’t make this)

OMG I LOVE THAT! I may have just the use for it once I furnish the game room

West coast is the best coast =P

But yeah, welcome to our side of the continent.

W00t! I fully intend on bringing my ass over to Canada now. It’s too close to ignore now. 😁

Another West Coaster here, literally (Oregon). The beach is about 60 miles from me.

Nice! Being so close to the beach is a huge plus. I wanna make it down to the Portland Retro Gaming Expo when it comes around. I may even do the Cowlitz one in WA coming up.

The Screenshots almost look as if they were from an emulator they’re so clear. I would love to know the story behind these screenshots and in an ideal world, I would love the ROM for Mario Land virtual boy to be dumped.

I wonder if Nintendo wasn’t trying to do the same with these titles as they did with the Mario land series on the GameBoy where Wario’s name was the subtitle in one game and spawned his own title in a later game.

Thanks for the welcome to the west 😊 Luckily I don’t mind the rain too much. I’m a hermit anyway lol

I love what you have so far, Shwanck!

It’s SO funny you mention this. I kind of wanted to do something similar for a while regarding the VB. I would love a book with great pictures and nice write-ups for the games, accessories, homebrew scene etc.

As a writer, I’d be more than happy to contribute where/how I can. I can also get pictures of things as needed (provided I own it).

How long has it been out? I used to have one on my N3DS but it had poor compatibility and ran slow. I would love a new one that works better. I wish we could get one to work with the 3D on the 3DS

New Adventure in the 3rd Dimension! It’s my last one before I move! https://youtu.be/QhodtYui51I

Lastly, my suggested changes for Innsmouth Mansion. 🙂

Would you happen to have an english translation shot of the controls page out of the Space Invaders Virtual Collection manual?

I’m trying to make sure I have the correct idea behind the controls. TYIA

I love the comic with the kid with the VB on his head and others looking at him like, WTF?

Just gave it a listen! Love it, man. Love how talented you are 🙂

*I bow to you sirs* I don’t think I have quite enough soldering skill to do these repairs.
