Original Post

Heres all the things I wanted to mention but they were too small/silly/crazy to post separately… I wouldn’t want to be spammy on PVB with many of just my topics on one page either πŸ˜›

and they are:

“How does one become a PVB staff member?”
“Do Virtual Girls exist but hide like boy ladybugs(pixar “a bugs life” reference) and how can you tell which is which?”
“is the VB Red/Black or Black/Red?”
“with all those on PVB who have two or more VBs as backup or collecting such as getting a Japanese model if they have a US model, should I get another VB?”
“which VB game is your favorite?”
“what do you nickname your consoles/handhelds?”
“does KR155E’s fabled “VB tower” exist?”
“what will you do on Gunpei Yokoi’s Birthday? (September 10th)”
“does anyone have any spare VB carts?”
“have you ever mentioned the Virtual Boy in public?”
“do you have other consoles/handhelds that are Red/Black?”
“what would you do if you were a VB for a day?”
“if a virtual boy(non-real human) was playing a Virtual Boy (console) would he be a Virtual Virtual Boy Boy?”

Why all the silly topics you ask? well I’m crazy for my red buddy! *COUGH* I mean why else was my heart fluttering during Mario’s Tennis? *COUGH* *ahem* Me? mutter something after “I’m crazy for my red buddy?”? when? *cough* don’t tell Virty! *cough* πŸ˜‰

> “is the VB Red/Black or Black/Red?”

I say Black/Red, similar to Black/White. I’ve never heard anyone call it a “White and Black TV”, and Michael Jackson’s song wasn’t “White and Black”.

DogP

Red/black I say, since it has more red than black. πŸ˜‰

Maybe you could say that the system itself (the plastic) is red/black, but that it’s displays are black/red? πŸ˜›

Ugh. That question is not as silly as it seems but actually on one level with the hen/egg problem. πŸ˜‰

I’ve always called it Red/Black myself

What DanB said reminds me of something a friend said in response to this question I asked before πŸ˜›

Actually, the chicken/egg mystery may have been solved!

Actually, the problem never existed.

If you stick with secular “reasoning”, you’ll always get either one answer or the other.

Good thing we don’t have to worry about it, huh?

The only Genesis I believe in is the one made by Sega, and I don’t even like THAT one πŸ˜›

Blasphemy!

“is the VB Red/Black or Black/Red?”

Both. It has both colors. 😐

*people only answering the Red/Black Black/Red question*
are all the other ones too silly, crazy or awkward to answer? πŸ˜›

Pretty much.

I didn’t actually skim the list and just replied to the subject because others were, and I had something to say about it. πŸ˜›

“How does one become a PVB staff member?”
If the VB love is strong within you you will be contacted by the PVB staff when you’re still at very young age. You will be trained throughout your youth as a so called pvbawan and at the end must face several difficult trials.
“Do Virtual Girls exist but hide like boy ladybugs(pixar “a bugs life” reference) and how can you tell which is which?”
They seem to have existed but no signs have been seen since 1996, they are rumored to be extinct and only legends remain. There disappearance is the direct cause for the decline in the VB population as no new units are created anymore and the VB becomes a dying breed.
“is the VB Red/Black or Black/Red?”
It’s neither and both.
“with all those on PVB who have two or more VBs as backup or collecting such as getting a Japanese model if they have a US model, should I get another VB?”
You should try to gather as much VB’s as you can and safe them from perilous dusty locations like old boxes and attics. Every VB you has earned the right of a respectable home and we are the ones to make that so.
“which VB game is your favorite?”
I’d vote the flashboy, for it has all at your command! But since I don’t have one I will leave this question unanswered, for it good very well contain small parts that are hazardous to ones throath and thus would not be the best.
“what do you nickname your consoles/handhelds?”
I don’t.
“does KR155E’s fabled “VB tower” exist?”
I do not know of it existence, my source do not show one: http://www.planetvb.com/modules/usercenter/?section=collection&uid=1 unless you mean the debugger, that is certainly tower shaped.
“what will you do on Gunpei Yokoi’s Birthday? (September 10th)”
I probably just started my new study then, I think I’ll be drinking beer and totally forget.
“does anyone have any spare VB carts?”
I do, often when I bought a game somewhere and they had a vb game for under 5 dollars.
“have you ever mentioned the Virtual Boy in public?”
Is it not so, that this very site is available to be read by all?
“do you have other consoles/handhelds that are Red/Black?”
Although my NES’s has much black and some red, it’s main color would be gray and I’m not sure if I can count it in. If I may, yes, if not, then no will be my answer.
“what would you do if you were a VB for a day?”
I’d continue my search for Virtual Girls and a proper link-cable to… “interact”.
“if a virtual boy(non-real human) was playing a Viirtual Boy (console) would he be a Virtual Virtual Boy Boy?”
It’d be a VB playing a VB.

Actually, in my opinion the only question too silly, crazy and slightly awkward question to answer is:

are all the other ones too silly, crazy or awkward to answer?

and I answer it with: Offcourse not milady.

How do you mean? Besides the internet? There is more? 😐

Nah, just kidding. My friends do know of my VB but are not really interested so I don’t talk about it alot. Only when my mother complains I wasted money on another one of those games :rolleyes .

Lol. I think GunpeyYokoiFan is a kid, dude.

Funny comment, but just giving you a heads up.

When I was a kid, I remember seeing the scrambled VB link-up channels on TV.

Anyway…
The VB is red and black in color aesthetically, and has a Black & red display.

*Would VB be black and white without the red plastic lens pieces?

Well a little joke can’t be that bad right (I’m a teenager myself)?

Are there any prototype link cables out there btw? That would make a cool addition to the collection.

Nope… the LEDs are red, so you get red whether the red lenses are there or not.

I don’t think any have surfaced… at least AFAIK.

Lol. I’m not old, but 3D Tetris on VB is a new game. Is 1996 retro already?

There obviously was no official link cable released. A prototype surely was made at some point, but none have surfaced to my knowledge. You CAN make your own, if you’d like to so you can enjoy multi-player homebrew.
