I just finished a homemade VB cabinet to allow the visitors of our show to discover this console in best conditions. French people are always really surprised to discover the console, furthermore with the Hyper Fighting demo running on it (until now, only 2 people knowed of the game’s existence before coming to visit us, and the 2 never seen it running on real hardware).
Before I completed the stand, visitors had to try the console without security, and a VB had been broken by a visitor so I decided to build the cabinet (I’ll take pictures as soon as it is in the gameroom).
Now my dream is to let them discover the full version of the game. Maybe one day I’ll find a complete copy ! It would be so grateful to present them such a quality homebrew.
Hello One Punch Man, and welcome to this fabulous forum ! I’m sure you will discover all you could dream about the VB, and much more ! Being myself a french resident I wonder where do you live in France ?
I’m near Rouen, 1 hour west from Paris, following the Seine (it’s fun to see those names in an english text ahah)
Yes, shipping is like 8$ for me… now you understand why it’s so difficult to collect VB games for us Europeans… when I buy from US market the shipping is almsot as expensive as the game price…
I’d love to see a port of Atari’s Assault. The game could be a true gem on Vb: two joysticks, top down view with nice “3D” effect when the tank jumps, rotations, fast pacing combats…

It’s a store display. It allows you to play GameBoy on a big screen. Those were found in stores back in 1989 so customers could discover the handeld.
But mine is a “fake” one, not an original one. I built it but it’s fully playable and that’s the important point ^^
Well, that’s not red cases, but since it’s difficult to find these cases outside of North America (lost 2 hours searching on the web), here is a shop selling original black cases worldwide:
