Virtual boy NSO with 3rd party headset
Hi guys.
I Want to play virtual boy games on Switch,but I Don't wanna waste money on cardboard and overpriced plastic. Will third party headset work just as good?
Nintendo said Labo is not supported, and 3rd party headsets were probably made for Labo VR supported games.
(I dont know if they said it to sell more Virtual boy stuff or because its really not comfortable)

Must we buy the $25 cardboard to access Virtual Boy on Switch?
Of all the things that make you like the Virtual Boy the thing that turns me off the most is the physical factor of the Virtual Boy of forcing yourself in awkward positions and scrunching in front of a tiny little box just to play.
I personally for one have said that they should opt for the red and cyan option and just have you pay a $5 pair of anaglyph glasses you can find anywhere on Amazon.
I hired Jose Cruz of New York New York to take apart a virtual boy put it in a new consoleized case and double tap it so that it outputs a separate left eye and right eye. I set the left side to black and red the right side to black and cyan and put them through a VGA mixer that was popular in NTSC television stations in the 90s which I found for 40 bucks including shipping from eBay and out came a low ping VGA anaglyph picture mix of Virtual Boy.
If you love The 3d-ness of the Virtual Boy but hate the scrunching and the awkward contortions, that is the best way to enjoy it.
I wonder why Nintendo found it necessary to hold the Virtual Boy cardboard in front of your face and force your hands to cup your ears in order to hold the controller correctly.
That was an awkward stance for the Labo kit for Super Mario Galaxy. And that is not an experience I want to repeat nor is the original physical Virtual Boy.
You think they have more of these options like anaglypg 3d,
Also if you have a 2010s era TV you could put the Virtual Boy In manual side by side half mode put your TV In manual side by side half mode put on your shutter glasses and get a true black and red 3D mode.
If Nintendo's going to force you into the form factor that's uncomfortable then no thank you. If I have to buy a cardboard in order to play Virtual Boy then no thank you. I'm not sticking my elbows out like I'm drowning out music just to play a virtual boy that I can't share when streaming out,

Consoles that aren’t a virtual bot that play it?
Hi I came across Jack bros and a Wario land at a yard sale and I want to play them but I don’t have a virtual boy and I just saw the price and 300-400 woof… is there a console like hyperkin that can play them?

Teleroboxer not saving
Teleroboxer is supposed to have battery backup, right? How does one save? I've beaten opponents and answered NO to KEEP PLAYING. The main menu will allow me to continue at that point but, if I turn the system off, all save files say NO DATA. I just got this off eBay and there was no mention of a bad battery in the description

Speculate on when the Virtual Boy Accessory will be available for pre-order and how hard it will be to buy.
I am anxious to get my hands on one and for it to not sell out immediately.

How much should I sell this for?
Hi all. Here's what I have and need help with finding a decent selling price. Reading through, you all sound like great fans of the VB! I have loved it, but I need to make space for a little one, and storage is tight.
Includes:
-VB (currently left eye isn't working, but it can be fixed for relatively cheap), the visor is in great condition, and no issues.
-Plastic stand. It's currently included but needs to be glued as a pivot joint has cracked. Original
-Original controller battery pack. Works perfect.
-Original box. Not in great condition, but still original with proof of purchase tag top portion included, dated 1998.
-5 games, which all work and have their original pamphlets.
-Original instruction manual.
I'm having a hard time finding a price. I could get the lens fixed, which would mean I could get a better price, so trying to find a sweet spot, or if that's even an issue at all. Your guy's help would be amazing! THANK YOU!

Any Twitch VB streamers besides me?
I want to know if anyone else regularly streams Virtual boy besides me.
I would like to submit my Twitch broadcast as a high quality example of a Twitch stream for VB.
I want to compare notes with someone else. See what they do, and share what I do.
Or am I the only one with regular Virtual Boy streams on Twitch?
