Hello All and Thank You For Welcoming me to This Wonderful Site!

I was wondering you all had any tips for a new VB owner? So far I have Mario Tennis and ordered the Wario game and Red Alarm.

-Any suggestions for great games or accessories for a newbie?
– Do Japaneese games work on my American VB?
– Any other tips?

Thanks in advance!

You’re off to a good start. Mario Tennis, Wario Land, and Red Alarm are some of my favorites. If you like Pinball, Galactic Pinball is a good one too. You may want to pick up a FlashBoy to play homebrews and unreleased games. Bound High is a great unreleased game which a limited number of reproduction carts were made, but since they’re no longer available, you’ll need the FlashBoy to play it on your system. You can get one here:

Japanese games work fine on an American Virtual Boy. I’d say Space Squash is the best of the Japan exclusive titles. If you want to give Jack Bros a try, the Japanese version is much more affordable than the US version.

Also, if you don’t already have one, get an ac adapter and tap. If you play it a lot, you’ll go through batteries quickly.
