Glad you are back home and everything is ok. Last year when my father had to under go two gallbladder surgeries I was at my wits end.(Not even remotely the same as a blockage, but scary)(Also the worst case that any doctor had ever seen) I hated the feeling not knowing what was going on and being helpless, but everything worked out and all the prayers from my church and online families helped get he and I through it.

Best wishes and good health. I hope everything goes well.

This would be very nice! I’ve been contemplating purchasing a flash boy for as long as I can remember,but never did. I would love to be able to load up a cart that could hold all the Virtual boy games and home brew.

This would be awesome! I would deffinately purchase a couple.

Battlefield 2: Modern Combat for the orginal xbox. I owned this game for about 3 days before getting rid of it. I really wanted to like it but I just couldn’t. I am also going to add TMNT Smash for wii on here. I was expecting a game like super smash bros…..I was mistaken. It was similar,but no where as fun as smash bros.

Try thecoverproject.net. They have art work for just about everything you’d want. The art work is made for ds cases; I think. The only thing is the site seems to be down at the moment. There was a member here that made covers for vb games.

Here try this http://www.planetvb.com/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=6021&post_id=32335#forumpost32335

Thanks, I figured as much. This is the first time I’ve ever received any spam since I’ve been on here.I guess I was just unlucky this time. Thanks for the reply KR155E

Here it is on eBay right now: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-Virtual-Boy-Hyper-Fighting-Street-Fighter-II-SF2-3D-New-/121799457155?hash=item1c5bd03983:g:b78AAOSwl9BWK~8h

@ a little over $1000 and some change. I don’t want the game that badly.

Update! Finally got n64 working! I tried Ryan’s updated image and that did the trick. I didn’t get to test the games out, but Smash bros loaded up, as well as Zelda 64. I would have to say that emulation of these games is really slow at the moment. Hopefully the people over at petrock get all the bugs worked out.

Runnerpack, im not sure what kind of paper their printed on but the pages are very thin. I think its that kind of receipt paper if i was to write on the first page it would transfer my writing onto the other pages.

I would say the paper is ncr paper(no carbon required). This sounds just like the papers I use to fill out disciplinary referrals for children that misbehave on my school bus only thinner.

I haven’t had too much time to mess with it alot, but the pi 2 can run pretty much all psx games flawlessly. You can setup the controls in most of the emulators themselves. There are 4 usb ports to use so all you need is controller. I see a lot of people using ps3 or xbox 360 controllers all the time. I still have not had luck getting n64 to work, but it is possible with certain games. I saw a youtube vid of mario kart 64 and it played fine. I myself just play nes, snes, genesis, gbc, gba, gb, and mame mostly. With these systems, the rpi b+ model is more than adequate to run these games. The biggest improvement is the gui os of the rpi2. It is a lot faster than the b+ pi.

My guess is the n64 emulator I have is what the problem is. I have seen others running n64 games and have had no problems, so I’ll still have to fiddle with it. I am in no way proficient with linux, so I’m learning as I go. Good luck on the mini arcade. I still need to get a flash boy, but haven’t gotten around to it yet.

It doesn’t look like the sega saturn is supported on rpi. I’ve searched petrock’s official pi blog site and have found that the saturn is not currently being supported on raspberry pi. I still need to download some n64 roms and try it out my self.

Just tried Mario 64,Ocarina of Time,Super Smash Bros,Blast Corps and none of them booted up at the moment. I’ll see if there is an update available in the repository and try again, but at this time it looks like n64 is a bust.

Update! I just got my raspberry pi 2 yesterday and got everything up and ready.I need a get an n64 usb controller adapter and try out the n64 emulation. Some games work really well others do not at the moment.

Right now I have Mame, GB, GBC, GBA, NES, Snes, PC engine aka Turbografix 16, DOS,Apple II. When you plug a thumb drive in the pi it puts a folder on it for roms and there is a heck of a list. Once the roms are in that folder emulationstation on the pi takes over and adds the corresponding emulator. I know there is atari,sega etc on there, but I haven’t tried them all yet.

The great thing about this setup is that I will eventually be able to put the pi 2 right in there, but I would have to rewire all the buttons. Hopefully Ryan will get his pi 2 image to work,then all I have to do is swap them out.

I’m not sure what took longer, gluing the cabinet together or all the wiring, but it was a fun 3 days!

Welcome to the community. I also have a collection of Transformers, but my most prized piece is the MP-04 Optimus Prime with trailer. I am also excited for those recently announced combiner wars transformers from Hasbro. That Devastator from combiner wars is sweet!

Google it or check out my attached image

Those are really nice! The eye cross works extremely well.

If you are in the US, pm runnerpack.He has soldered three of my virtual boys and I have another to send him. If you have the means to take the vb apart it will save you on shipping.
