Heh… if you guys are interested, I’ve got hundreds of “unknown mystery VB games” ;).

Awwww…c’mon….let us dream!

Hell, if it goes for less than $5 (free shipping), it’s probably worth it, even if it is Mario’s Tennis.

Games include “Mario Land”,”Mario Clash”,”Red Alarm” and “Teleroboxer”. All four are new in the original boxes and factory sealed. Also included is a Nintendo Virtual Boy AC Adapter Set which has been opened but is in the original box.

perhaps. i bought mine for $200 a few years ago. I got a great deal on it. Theres a VB for auction that comes with Gundam. Its about $500.

This looked nice, but the shipping is really horrible.

For everyone still wanting Jack Bros. Japan in mint condition: http://cgi.ebay.com/JACK-BROS-Nintendo-VIRTUAL-BOY-JP-IMPORT-JAPAN-NEW_W0QQitemZ330405178810QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Vintage_Video_Games?hash=item4cedaeedba

Seems to be a very acceptable price, or am I wrong? I hope someone here will be happy after reading this! 🙂

That seems a little expensive, I paid about $25 with shipping for mine a few weeks ago.

If you decide to go for it however, make sure the seller packs it in a sturdy outer box so you won’t get it pressed together like mine was when it arrived.

Ahhhh, OK, I see then. I didn’t post this auction for myself, I thought there was someone here after this and I thought that person couldn’t get it for less than $100.

Not going to pay all that while I have a Flashboy :). I am just interested in playing this system and making it work as best as I can(like repairing the displays and such).

Boxed waterworld + Tetris-3D & Golf for $71.31

The WW Box seems in fairly poor shape, but overall was a decent deal, I think. 🙂

Thank God for “Vitrual Boy” 😎

Yeah, remember them when I was a kid. I believe it has nothing to do with the VB, though.

“This is a NTSC-J Game”

I think not – as it’s not played on a TV…

According to this the price is too high, but how often do you come across this game?

Really!!! But this expression is rather frequent in sellers’ advertisements …

I’ve been checking the price page you mention and I don’t agree too much with their prices. The problem is what you mention of “how often do you come across this game?”. Price in these kind of games is based exclusively on offer-demand, so for example, SD Gundam for less than 400 euro is a bit too cheap IMO, since you don’t come across Gundam too often.

Back to Insmouse, it depends on how much you want to complete your collection. I’d buy it for that price if I didn’t have it.

Effectively, I would like to complete my collection, but I’m not obsessed with this objective. I prefer to buy my favourite games at the cheapest price possible (while in good condition and preferably boxed) and be patient looking for the rarest games at affordable price. In my short experience in this matter I’ve noticed that patience is a good travel companion!
