That looks fantastic!!

I noticed the link you had for the replacement tripod mount is no longer available. Is there any alternatives you recommend or possibly another link for the same item?

Thanks!

Interesting. Maybe he stopped making them?

Here is his eBay email: chuppe_ir6158pafx@members.ebay.com

Thanks! I just emailed him about it, I’ll let you guys know what I hear (assuming he responds)

Thanks Tusk. Just grabbed Fishing. How many copies of these were made?

FWIW, I jumped to the link like 3 minutes after the post was made and there were 25 available at that moment.

By chance, is there anyone in Texas that is able to fix display issues?

Thanks for the tip, good sir.

Unfortunately this project is going to be temporarily on hold for me as one of my ribbons started having issues -_-

Time to find someone to permanently fix them.

Ohhh man. Fingers crossed this is still available when I get paid late tonight!!

No problem. I plan on making a set myself in the future. If you do so as well, be sure to share them!

On that note, does anyone have a recommended printer or paper type for printing the case arts out on? or do most just use normal printer paper?

Here is Google Drive I created, dumped every Virtual Boy DS Case Art I have in here… if the person(s) who created these roam these boards, I apologize as I can’t recall where I originally got these from.

It’s a mixture of English, Japanese, & Homebrew releases. The pictures are set to scale, so you should be able to just print them and they will property fit into a DS container.

If I am missing any DS case arts or if anyone has any alternatives to share, would love to have them! I’ve seen a template before as well but the only one I could ever find was very low-res so I didn’t bother getting it.

Thanks! And thanks for letting me know about that. Luckily, I’m buying them locally, so I’ll bring a Mario’s Tennis cart with me and test each case with it just to be sure.

I’m actually thinking of those DS cases though. Does Nintendo still offer them for sale? Is there a section here on Planet VB with the artwork?

Might have to make my own for a couple games. Double anyone’s done art for them.

Nintendo does still sell the red cases on their website. 5 pack is $6.99 I believe.

I have most of DS case arts (grabbed from various sources) I can definitely upload them if you’d like

EDIT: Here is the link to item page on Nintendo’s store for the cases…

Well, there is already a guide to making your own out there actually

http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=5&threadid=79852

as far as the artwork, most are already available here and there for these DS style cases.

Oh wow this looks great! I need to finally learn how to do some basic soldering so I can be prepared for this.

Oh wow, this is a great information, thanks for sharing.

I may do this in the interim until I’m able to get custom DS cases finally created

Thank you all for the suggestions. I think I might try and somewhat replicate the situation on an n64 sports title and give the un-du a shot haha

If that doesn’t seem promising then yall are probably right, leave the sticker on!

Didn’t know there was some type of variation? Interested to hear more about that pickup

Oh wow, does he ship to the States? Really want this.

This is no where near as nice as the wall mount but I did one on a arm. See the pics. Uses the same camera tripod part from eBay.

Red ARM:

And a 1/4-20 stud:

Total cost for a single VB is about $31. Works pretty well as long as you don’t over extend the arm.

Dude hell yeah, thanks for the share! I love this setup! Will have to get on this idea as well.

Hmmm.. did I pick up a subtle mention about a potential multi-cart in that interview?

Questions, questions!

Holy crap, didn’t expect a fellow Texan with a New Braunfels origin as well here!

Was born in NB, currently in North Austin!

Glad to hear this isn’t dead, very much looking forward to all of the repro’s you end up doing.

Would love to get some repros, especially of Bound High!

Any homebrews getting the treatment would be amazing too, can’t have enough physical content!
