Has anyone figured out what was causing those faint moving black horizontal lines in the display?

It’s usually something on the clear window over the LED bar. Try removing the LED PCB and carefully wiping the window. A quick way to verify is to swap the left and right PCBs… if it follows it, it’s gotta be dirty windows.

Well, I’ve taken it apart and wiped the window clean and the display is better now, but there are still a couple of those lines left on it. Any idea what could be causing this?

Has anyone figured out what was causing those faint moving black horizontal lines in the display? I’ve read somewhere that it might be dust on the magnifying lens’, so tomorrow (or later today I guess… xD ) I might try cleaning those lens’ in one of my backup VB’s with that problem. Hopefully, this time I won’t forget how to put the thing back together… xD Anyway, I recently picked up a new solderd VB, but it has those damn lines in it’s left display… So if it works on my backup, I’ll do it on my newly refurbished one, wish me luck! :3

I figured I’d make my own list of some of the best games I’d like to see on the Virtual Boy! 😀

Doom and/or Wolfenstein 3D (Of course.)
Tempest 2000
Shadow Squadron
Terminator 2: The Arcade Game
Silpheed (Sega CD Version)
Space Harrier
Mega Man
Wario Ware
Virtual Boy Camera (Like the Game Boy Camera)
Nintendo World Championships VB
Berserk
Super Smash Bros.
Dr. Mario
Mario Party
Paper Mario
Pilot-Wings

I know some of these might seem impossible, but I’m sure if you water them down just enough they would make great Virtual Boy games! :3

Got a new refurbished VB off of eBay 🙂

No dust cap either, it’s just the game.

Well, how much do you want for it?

Can you sell games loose? I’d like to buy some, but those prices are a bit high for me right now and I don’t have any need for the boxes.

Do the games require boxes? I have an extra Warioland, game only.

No, but I would prefer if they had the little dust caps.

Thanks, but $80.00 is a bit out of my price range for most VB games.

Do you think its possible to just use a glue gun to reinforce the glue so I wouldn’t have to risk melting anything?
