I also received my link cable from Kevin a few days ago. The quality is top notch and if you didn’t know any better, you would think this came straight from Nintendo! 🙂

This is fascinating stuff for the Virtual Boy and the PVB community. Thanks as always Kevin!

That’s a great question. I let my 4 year old daughter look into mine just for about 30 seconds max as she was interested to see what I was looking into, and my 7 year old has played it a handful of times for about 5 minutes max. Unless your nephew has any known issues with his eyes, I would think it would be okay for him to try it out some.

Since you ignited my curiosity, I searched and came across this site..

Here is a paste of question #3…

3: At what age can my child view 3D safely?
Vision, including binocular vision, develops from birth. No detrimental effects of viewing 3D have been reported at any age. Parents should note that from 6-12 months of age, basic binocularity is established. By the age of 3 years most children will have binocular vision well enough established to enjoy viewing 3D television, movies or games.

Glad to see (and figured) this would go to a PVB member! It looks awesome and nice to learn the history on this piece.

A display case would be great. Please share pics if you do. Congrats! 🙂

Pretty cool find!

I’m not sure if it’s the commentators accent, but it sounds like he’s referring to the Virtual Boy as the “Visual Boy”… twice! 😛

Count me in for 2 cables, thanks!

Jim
