Thanks!

Thanks a bunch!!

Most common issue in th world… universe.. these forums, it’s the virtual boy. The glur holding the ribbon cable to the “screen” has come loose.

Here’s how to fix it.

I have baseball… 😛 That’s one I need an insert for. I’ll just buy gameboy ones. How exactly do I mod them to fit??

That IS entirely possible, but 1) they ship from europe… 2) i do want originals.

You have 30,000 at your disposal…?

I feel like I just lost 3.50… So anyone else?

Broken link… could we delete this thread or fix the link?

Could also be the golfer’s name….

I got one listed as fully functional, it arrived and the left ‘screen’ was out. Asked for a $7 refund because the seller was a cool dude and I didnt wanna damage his feedback or anything… he refunded all $32, I was shocked, but being nice with the seller may result in more than you ask for.

i have Red Alarm / Alert

PM me some pics of it. I have a ton of vintage games.

Took it out for a bit, let the foam regain shape. But it is less curved, now.

Day 2 results… Crease is deCREASing.. I’m too funny. But in all seriousness thanks for everyone’s suggestions, I kinda morphed them into my own, I found a book that fit inside the visor(still on the plastic loopy thing) and put a bigger one under it, then put a(n) 1.5-3lb ting of metal pellet gun BB’s.

Currently under a book being weighed down with 1000 metal BB pellets.

Putting something too heavy on it might crush the foam. Put just enough weight on it to keep it lying flat, and leave it for a week or so and it should be fine.

If you need it right now, you could probably use a low-temperature clothes iron on it, but it’s probably overkill.

BTW, morintari’s right about there being a very specific way to remove it from and replace it on the visor holder. Consult page 18 of the VB manual.

Also, the fact that you’re wearing a red shirt in that photo isn’t irony 😛 😉 It probably falls under the heading “coincidence”.

Here’s mine

I have more games coming, will post when they arrive!

I am just worried that it’ll distort the shape even more..

that’s possible. But what if it creases it sideways? or shoudl I just lay it flat?

BTW, I just got it on ebay! It’s all yours 🙂
