Same here! I still have my original Virtual Boy from my middle school days in good shape and i like the system and its games unironically. Same goes for the Atari Jaguar, which i also had two times during my middle and high school days as well. My collection is not that big but i’m still happy to own Virtual Boy: Wario Land and the other games. Seriously Nintendo, stop with your stupidity and re-release the Virtual Boy titles!
It’s too bad Kaoru Kita’s website no longer mentions Dragon Hopper (http://kmkstudio.plala.jp/~kamiki/diarypro/diary.cgi?mode=profile&user=admin) and nobody archived it for future reference 🙁 Alongside Zero Racers, this is the Virtual Boy proto i’m looking foward the most to play if the day where a working prototype ever arrives during our lifetimes…
Currently i have an injury in my left arm but i plan to post mock-up drawings based on XKizuha’s work to refine it a bit more to see it we can one-up Virtual Lab’s overall look for this potential idea 🙂

For anyone who might find this thread and hope that I still have these magazines, so that additional scans of certain pages could be made for other systems, please note that I, unfortunately, had these magazines stored in a basement that had never flooded before, but about a year ago, it flooded, and all my Dengeki Super Famicom Magazines got horribly damaged and had to be thrown away. I was thankful that I had already scanned all of the Virtual Boy-related pages, as that was the only reason why I had purchased the magazines.
It would’ve been cool to have Dengeki Super Famicom Magazine scans available at Retromags, along with Jugemu and Marushō Super Famicom Magazine, but sucks to hear the flood killed them… Oh well. I’m still thankful for you in scanning stuff from Jugemu that contained Atari Jaguar-related material i needed :)I owe you one… Something that i forgot to say in my post at the MSFCM thread is that i almost experienced the same thing with my Club Nintendo scans a few months ago but thankfully, they were not destroyed by a flood at my house so i can relate to that :/
