Here is 2 pictures (left & right display cable).

I think why I got a problem with one of the screen few weeks ago.
They put some hot melt adhesive over the two display cables. That day I touch the IPD adjustment & the focus adjustment. Maybe do to that it’s pull cables to much don’t you think?

As I said they used first a rework station like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9PgwMzrk2g and also put hot melt adhesive over the cables (for better strength).

I will try to play more hours this week with my VB to see if it’s happens again or not…Time will tell

thanks for your fast reply, the company who did the repair use a rework station.
Normaly this is the best solution and don’t move in the time…
I don’t know if the fixed the 2 screens or not (they also can’t remember).
They are ok to fix again the problem (for free), but now it’s working for me…

Maybe the best is to open the VB and watch if they repair 1 year ago the 2 screens or not, dont you think? I can also put the pictures on the forum.

Since the repair one year ago I played almost 15 or 20 hours, also the company is really well know here in France (Otaku Store) http://www.dailymotion.com/video/k62tsIviOLiAZZ369bd#.UbObwfkqzG9

thanks for all that informations! I was interested on that product, now i’m not.. If this can’t support homebrew games it’s not for me..

The first 3ds linker will be available very very soon:

I believe a VB emulator will be released in 2014.

It makes sense!
I suppose someone have already try to find all the guys who worked on the magazine Nintendo Power at this time.
Maybe with the crisis, we will find this gems? ^^

You guys give me some hope (Dragon Hopper!)

Out of this topic: i’m a newbie on developpement, but do you think it’s will be difficult to made a Zero Racers with the engine of Red Alarm? This 2 games seems very similar on the screenshoots, seems more easy than some homebrew I seen here!

thanks for your replies 😉
Your supposition seems realistic, but do you know some cases where nintendo proto’s was keept by journalists?

A company like Nintendo, don’t request a return of their proto’s? I hope not.

I seen some proto’s of Zelda famicom on ebay.
I wonder if this come’s from an old employee or from a journalist…

I don’t see the glass half empty, but just think when Nintendo threw a lot of gems in 2004 (including Virtual Boy things…).

Nintendo have some shame of the Virtual Boy, let’s see if they dare to put on the eshop of the 3ds some Virtual Boy games.

Time will tell…
