okay,

I tried to connect a 9 volt addapter to the batterypack pins on the vb but it still doesn’t start. So I think the batterypack is still ok?

An update! I plugged 4,5V directly into the virtualboy controller port and it booted!

So what now? it must be the controler?

I treid putting 4,5 and 6v directly into the virtualboy but didn’t help…
I see (read) that the nintendo regulator has 6 pins I am looking now at a 7805 regulator and it only has 3 pins what will be the wirering then?

hi,
I hear nothing, not even the mirors. I have treid both ways, a (homemade) ac adaptor and the batterypack. I have checked the power suply cabel with a multimeter and the controller outputs power. so that makes me think it’s something inside the VB it self. My plan is as followed I open up the VB, solder out the regulator, drive to the neerest electronic store, and buy a new regulator.
Kind regards,
Roelvdm3

Edit:
I am plannig to buy this gamebit.
