Great news, exactly what we want!

If they’re getting patreons with monthly payments coming in I’d guess they’re in no hurry to finish it – money will keep coming in… Like having a carpenter over for a job on hourly rate instead of one payment when job is done.

True, someone must have scared her to take it down again though.

New reply from Eighting:

Mr. Fredric Blaholtz

As a premise, we can not answer whether “Invincible Iron Man Gagaga – In” existed or not.
Because we have a duty of confidentiality as a developer.
Therefore, we can not even answer who the client of the game is.

For your reference, the company Hudson has disbanded, and it is unknown who owns the rights of that work.

So Hudson was involved, is that news?

I asked to forward my email address if he knew anyone to ask, but if the company who was the client doesn’t exist anymore that would be difficult. So hunt continues for former Hudson employees?

EDIT:
It seems what was Hudson is now “Konami Digital Entertainment”.

It doesn’t say anything on the papers presented in the first post? I’m thinking if there’s a business name other than Eighting.

I sent a link to here.
But as they said they’re bound by client confidentiality.

It could be…

So last option is to ask if they could contact their client and ask if they’d like to contact me.

Who knows who the client is or was… if they’re out of the game we might never get a permission then it’s up to the cart holder if she wants to discreetly share at some time in the future.
Who knows maybe “other sources” will pop up and nobody (client) would now which one of them was dumped… 😉

I got a reply from Eighting:

Thank you for your e-mail inquiry

Your community seems to be doing a very unique and interesting effort.

We are game developers and develop games based on requests from clients.
The contents of the request from the client are basically confidential matter.
Therefore, we are not in a position to answer about the inquiry game title.
We can not also answer whether the image and the explanation of movie are true or fake.

The existence of your community that takes care of the old game console is very encouraging for game developers.
Please keep loving the game console.
Thank you.

So I guess we need the client’s name so we can ask him/her/them…

Maybe try to negotiate with Eighting then, perhaps it’s possible to get them to release it in some form, preferably as Public Domain.

I wonder if it helps if everyone writes to them:
info@8ing.co.jp

Someone with a spare VB – ship it to the woman!

Clever construction with identical halves.

Great.

You won’t be able to play via the link cable using an original Mario’s Tennis cart though. 😉

Looked nice.

25 copies seems a bit low in numbers.

Got mine today, impressive layer thickness on the connectors! Finest I have seen IRL.

I googled for bspatch, downloaded that.
https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/929/

Then you just follow instructions in command prompt:
bspatch oldfile newfile patchfile

Mario’s Tennis grows from 512kB to 2MB.
Haven’t tried it yet, don’t have the link cable yet and currently just one VB anyway.

Don’t really know why “everyone” has to do this, it would be easier for all to download the patched file. Games are downloadable here anyway.

Very nice 3D images!!

I made mine to blend in on the scanned label, it’s in 1200dpi – and it’s a very small mark on the label. I removed “GAME PAK” so it would look “less GameBoy”, have never heard anyone call Virtual Boy cartridges for “Game Pak” but it might be the official in the instruction booklet name?

So Krisse’s would be something like 2400?

The one mellott124 made (but was posted by someone else) is a bit too simple than I think Nintendo would have made it.

Among others, mellott124 has a cart base, he should be able to make a real cart of it.

Virtual Boy Cartridges

Making a PCB isn’t that hard, it’s a lot harder to find donor carts for a reasonable price. Unless you have cash and can buy boxes of them from Japan or something like that.

The guy who had loads of Baseball carts is still portioning them out I guess?

Now we need a multitap and a multiplayer game as well… 😉
