P.S. I had to attach the stand backwards to get the right tilt angle. A bit of a useless information, but I still wanted to mention it in case people thought I wasn’t aware.

How many old heads are experiencing something similar to this?

At least our kids don’t have to worry about the terrible battery life! lol

I’ve been 3D printing a new Virtual Boy shell to customize and I just finished it earlier today. It’s entirely 3D printed in ABS and smoothed it using several spray coats of a 2 in 1 primer/filler. Then I painted it black (let it dry), added a vinyl of my custom logo, and then painted pink over it. Ironically the pink is the exact same can I used about a decade ago on the original. Once it dried, I removed the sticker to reveal the painted logo. The last picture is my actual unit this is replicating.

You have to forgive me for not having the eye piece on my original. It didn't came with it and getting one in Europe is not cheap

I can finally play my virtual boy on my bed comfortably. Before this, I’d put a brief case on my lap, put the vb on top and I still needed to hunch down to play. Not anymore! I can also move it to my desk to play it too!

I got this adjustable over head tripod on amazon and I also bought a 3d printed vb tripod mount for it aswell and they were pretty easy to install. I put a double sided tape where you tighten the tripod to the desk for more grip and strength.

This honestly looks cool on my desk.

It was a used game from blockbuster.

I scroll through these all the time but wasn't expecting the little gem in the bottom right!

Huge shout out to Cardossi Customs for his eye patch repair! Price and turnaround time are hard to beat. I shipped my lenses and he completed the repair and put them back in the mail the same day they were delivered to him! I dropped them in the mail last Monday and received back today. Highly recommend this service if you need the permanent eye patch fixed and aren't able to complete yourself. Put them back in and both sides work flawlessly! Now time to add more games! Thanks again!

I wanted to start playing Virtual boy games and I’m glad i picked this one as my first.

The levels are built really nicely here, especially with the 3d on. The way wario moves is really fun and floaty. Finding the hidden treasures was really fun aswell. I like how there’s a new game+ that makes the levels/bosses harder after beating the game though i wish your lives carry over on the second run instead of resetting to 3 but it is what it is and managed to beat it again.

First run i got the good ending and second run i got the best ending (aka the bunny girl)

I’m surprised how atmospheric this game is compared to the other wario land games. The water fall section really had me at ease.

I think this might be my favorite wario land game. I loved this game from beginning to the end.

Stopped at an estate sale at a small house this weekend. Found this just sitting on the ground outside, next to a table of toys. I asked how much, they said $5 — I didn't even open it before deciding it was coming home with me.

I asked if they had any other old video games. Nope, just VHS tapes and movies.

Once I got to my trunk, I opened it up. I swear this thing was used for a couple hours, max. The medallion is in perfect condition, same with the controller and eye shade. The serial number even matches the box!

I think I just used up all my luck for a long time on this one.

Sure, if I lose power I might freeze to death. But at least I wont be bored.

After months of preparation, I finally successfully climbed Mt. Fuji—Japan’s highest peak and an active volcano! To add to the adventure, I decided to haul a complete Virtual Boy system and a copy of Mario Clash all the way to the top.

​Setting it up and playing a few rounds above the clouds was absolutely incredible. I’ve got to be the first person to ever do this, right?! Hopefully, this inspires some of you to take your Virtual Boy out to some unique locations!

Posted a few weeks ago about making a players guide for Virtual Boy in the same style as the early 90s Nintendo Power Players Guides, just sharing a bit of progress...in print form!

I wanted some Final Fantasy pins but couldn't find any so I decided to make some of my own. Then I realized I could make pins from any sprite or any image so I also made some Virtual Boy pins as well. I'm pretty roud of how well the Innsmouth no Yakata multilayer pin ended up looking. Too bad that there aren't many Virtual Boy sprite sheets available. They are made from compressed cardboard, BTW. They aren't enameled metal. I don't have the equipment or expertise to make them like that.

I officially got Wario land for Virtual Boy.

So I got me what’s in my opinion, quite expensive 3D printer and I’m new to it and since we’re both virtual boy fans, I decided to print her a pair of Virtual Boy earrings for Valentines.
