My son is playing it right now. Thanks for the heads up!

You shouldn’t have to build it into the games at all. It would be self contained in the unit/program. I got this idea from back in the days of the original halo. It had multiplayer through system link but xbox live did not exist back then. Someone made a host program that acted as a server that would allow people to connect their xbox’s through ethernet to their network and the program simulated the system link allowing people to play online. Basically the adapter would plug into the link port and work with the program on the pc to just simulate as if there were 2 virtual boys plugged into each other. I see this being very plausable and the final build cost being between $50-$100 based on some hardware that Ive researched.

I was more so meaning this to work in conjunction with the host application on a pc for online vs. play. I think the cable is the ideal solution for local play.

I just got my box and its awesome! Thanks a lot Ben.

Thanks for the replies. If wifi was an issue then yeah I would see either bluetooth or RF being a possible substitution. As for it being too large and requiring a separate box, that would basically be counter intuitive. The whole point was to not have to connect the VB to another device. Is it a weight support issue you are seeing or the overall size will just be too bulky? If it is weight, then possibly a clip could come off it to attach to the base for extra support? I understand that we are just normal everyday people that would be doing this in our spare time with what ever equipment we could find and not some huge corporation with tons of r&d resources. But I can’t imagine this peripheral would be that large. Heck, look at the ultra small usb transmitters for bluetooth and RF. They are the size of a dime.

Sorry for the delay. Here are the covers for Bound High and Faceball Remastered (credit goes to Thunderstruck). Also here is the cover for Space Squash (credit goes to craby). Unfortunately I already deleted the files for the others but here is what I did. For virtual fishing, I used the images below and pasted them into one of the other cover files. I resized them to fit the back and front. Then I cut the logo off the front box image and turned it vertical and resized it to fit the spine of the case. As for the others… I used a friends scanner and just scanned the boxes and did the same process as virtual fishing. To be honest, they look terrible in comparison to the others. The others look like original art and these ones look like images. It just doesn’t look right when holding them next to others but it will have to do seeing as how I couldn’t find the artwork anywhere. I hope this helps you in finishing your cases.

Yeah I didn’t want to try either LOL.

I haven’t tried to take it apart but it looks like it could be glued. I hope to be able to collect the variants over time but its not crucial at the moment. My aim of this post was to get an idea how many variants exist so I know if its even plausible to get them all.

Here is a pretty cool device that lets you create save states for SNES games. It also allows you to play super famicom games on a SNES.

Here’s the cases I made for my collection. I happened to have a ton of extra black DS cases so I decided to use them instead of ordering the red ones.

No problem, you’re only about 2ish hours away from me 🙂

just curious, what part of michigan are you in? I live in sterling heights. about 45 mins north of detroit.

I happen to live in Michigan and would be willing to make an offer after I see pics of it. If you are interested, just upload some pics in a post and ill send you a pm.

If anyone happens to have the covers already made for the following games, could they please upload them? Space Pinball, SD Gundam pvb version, Blox, and Faceball prototype edition. Thanks.

Wow… Thanks alot Ben! I really appreciate it!

I believe he has some Flashboy +’s left. I just purchased 1 today.

I now have everything I wanted. Thanks for the help and replies.

Thanks for the info. I wasn’t planning on selling it at all, I just thought that it was weird that I couldn’t find any pics of other ones with it. Its pretty cool that it has that more complete type of feel to it.
