Thanks for your reply! So you think a oven session should temporarily fix the problem? Its getting worse and worse today the left display lit up entirely making it impossible to make out an image.

Ok I have absolutely no i dea what is going on with my vb. When i am up close to it with my face pressed right into the visor it looks fine with only ocasional glitch ups when the image on screen suddenly changes ect, but when you pull your face back and look through the left eyepiece (Right looks fine even from distance) it goes all fuzzy and glitches up. I dont think its glitchy display and why does it go all wonky when you move away any guesses?

1st image is up close 2nd is glitch up

OK new problem now my left display is sometimes much brighter than the right making words unreadable and the background blend in with the foreground and sometimes glitched up image like in the photo then it goes back to normal then sometimes after a level ends the last thing you saw in the level will linger on the left display but supe bright and pixalated here are some pictures of the problem

(you cant tell from the pic but the display is bright to)

yeah i discovered that link not minutes after posting that but i have yet to go to staples for some legal paper.

What size should the box art be before printing? I’ve made a sample box but it was way to small.

Heres another good one

U.S.A retail version

see if there are any dust covers in the cartridge slot sometimes people will stick them in there and they are hard to see, also clean the contacts on the battery pack and controller then test the controller with a volt meter to see if its that or the unit itself.

Good Luck!

we need to get a batch of bound high cartridges made. would there be any way to do that without using something like a flashboy? could you just reprogram a game cart like mario tennis with a vue debugger? oh and i have to disagree with the whole u.s./ japan art thing i like the North American art better.

Yeah i found my first at a local game store in the hard case with 3 games and bargined it down to 60$. My second and current one i found at our local BOOKSTORE for 75$ with ac adapter and mario tennis. You just have to look around and be ready to hassle for it i hear about them turning up in places like goodwill all the time for 20$

yes that means that it is probably your controller and not the battery pack dreammary told me to check with a flashlight for green oxidization on the battery pack contacts inside, so just to be sure you might want to do the same.

Heres one its got an in box performance ac adapter boxed virtual boy and three boxed games for 100$ and there hasn’t been a bid yet!

Thank you yeah i had heard this on a youtube video so i tried it out and it worked, but i do have one more problem my ac adapter isnt working the VB will run fine (except display glitches once a month or so) on batteries but the ac adapter wont work. it has been like this since i got it wih the system a couple of years ago but ive never found an article on it. i have tested it with a volt meter and it says the wall tap is only putting out 3V any suggestions?

Thanks again!
