Yeah it definitely looks like a distortion from the plastic lenses,
almost like they have a beveled top and bottom.

Its Funny i just don’t notice it as much on the other one , was just worried in case this one that had been repaired had been damaged.

Also the third party eye shade makes a slightly odd viewing angle , plus the nose bit isn’t right as theres no gap.

Also I work weekends at a huge retro-gaming and computing museum, and at a commodore book launch someone reckoned they heard on the grape vine there was going to be another flash boy run ?

You heard anything ?

Hi,

I’m a newbie on here,

I have wanted to get a virtual boy since they came out, Finally last year I bagged a virtually unused one in box with everything.. and its better than I could ever had hoped for.

But I read about cable issues and I do not want to take it apart to mess with it so Recently I got from Ebay a VB with a joypad that has been totally re soldiered and re-inforced .
The chap claims it will last for along time now , it was a fairly good price and so far its great with one small issue.

I have just noticed that if I move my head eye position down the bottom of the screen goes blurry and if I move up the top goes blurry its only a small amount but I had not noticed it on my previous model , its like the viewing plastic could be distorting on the top and bottom edge like its rounded or something.

Anyone know anything ?

It could be that I have purchased a third party eyeshade and the distance or angle is different
