Wouldn't have opened it myself, but I'm not the kind of person who complains when someone does open a rare sealed console though. It's you stuff, do what you want with it :). Doubt I would have had the chance to see this unboxing anywhere else.
Retarded nintendo and even more retarded the consumers ....game boy monocrhome crap games huge market, game gear colour masterpiece of technology less sales
I had a Virtual Boy, and not once did i ever have any of the problems people complained about with it, never dizzy.. no eye problems.. nothing, it was good fun!
@Lianas1980 I got one for $30 before they disappeared and it made me sick so I sold it with Red Alarm for $13 at a Yard Sale. Years later I regretted it and now my eyes tolerate it quite well. The one I got used for $90. Well, it was still worth it.
@REPS1983 Why shouldnt he be? Didnt you realize this thing was in 3D 16 years before the Nintendo 3DS or ANY other 3d device were invented? Also check out the controller. I see an xbox 360 controller shape right there... way to go Microsoft, always copying your competition
If you had the money you could buy 2 of the same console, one to use, and one to keep for 10 years. and I do't mean you as in "you" but you as in everyone.
Hey futurematt5 Thank you for your info on the virtaul boy. Im goint to try to find one in good condition. I have one but. I im missing the stand to hold the system. If you find one that it could really help me please send me the info. I will ready appreciate your help. I ve looked in many places but havent had luck. please take this time for me. I love your reveiws on your collect and gives me hope that i shoul be able to get one. thanks for responding to my request,
@rudycamachojr dude I just got one on ebay so I won't be much help to you. Good luck though. You may have to just buy a replacement system with the stand, or one that's faulty except for the stand.
@rudycamachojr I just bought it on ebay, I guess I was lucky finding one in mind condition but I did pay extra for the privelege. There were many units produced at the time, and since the machine was a commercial flop I guess a fair few staying in warehouses and have been bought up by dealers / collecters? Nope, not planning on selling, sorry.
Yes, this was my reaction the first time I put my head in one of these at a store in the 90's. I bought one years later and still play it. The games are actually quite good and withstand the test of time.
@Taskasfm yeah, it really didn't do very well at all, probably the biggest disaster Nintendo have made, however they're worth checking out, apart from the sore eyes the games are pretty cool!
Congratulations on your Virtual Boy. I have one myself (no visor sadly) with teleroboxer (radical) and ol marios tennis. Im getting red alarm new sealed in the package for my birthday. Ah, those were the days. Im so glad I bought one from my hard earned cash back in 95 because i was saving up for a new system after the genesis and kept savin and savin and as soon as the VB came out, I bought it! and a year later i got teleroboxer. The games still keep me excited
The Virtual Boy is a very unique piece of kit and was ahead of it's time irrespective of what critics or haters said about it. Gunpei Yokoi (R.I.P) was a true genius and visionary. When I first tested the VB it seemed very reminiscent of the time when I first played 'Battlezone' in the Arcades when I was 6, looking through the viewfinder and entering another dimension.
I recommend you buy the AC power attachment that replaces the battery box, I use one of my 9v adaptors and it powers up fine.
@oldskoolrc ah yeah, I got one of those but it's still shrink wrapped! the VB hasn't eaten the first set of batteries yet, mind I reckon I've only switched it on about 7 times so far!
@taoworm2323 Yeah thanks, I bought Red Alarm a few weeks ago and really like it. Also got my eye on the planet VB website where they might be re-stocking the flash buy, there are a couple of great looking homebrew titles for that as well!
Congrats on picking up a NOS Japanese system. I really like the box, as usual the Japanese version is way more ascetically pleasing than the US version. I remember seeing huge stacks of them in the games stores on clearance for $29.99 or something like that. Myself and a friend both picked one up along with a few games and had a blast with them. Sadly the only color was red which ended up killing my eyes after only a short play, if only it was full color.
@BossBossly thanks man. I love the system so far, but have only played for 1/4 hour. I'm waiting for Vertical Force to arrive: the only reason I bought the system! Would not have bothered if it weren't for a classy Hudson shooter. Amazing that they were selling for so little. I bet one day they'll be worth a bit, in good condition.
i rented one the week they came out for a game store. i played it all weekend. i had tennis pinball and i think another game. mby just those 2 though. i might have played the wario game but i honestly dont remember. how much can i find one of those these days ?
@vinnieblacklodge I think you can pick one up on ebay for about $100 to $150, maybe less. Games are pretty cheap, I wanted this system for one game: Vertical Force, the only shootemup on the system (apart from the 3d red alarm. I love Hudson shooters, I got all the PCE Star Soldier games and wanted to check that one out.
