Is there anyone on here that still permanently repairs the displays? I’ve done the oven method and it worked for a while but now my right eye is getting glitchy. I’d like to have this fixed permanently, but I know that the soldering required is beyond my skill level. Please let me know!

I have a question. There’s like a half-dozen US Jack Bros. on eBay right now. They’re all over $200 except one that’s $199.99. Why is this? It can’t be because of rarity, since they keep popping up on eBay. Why aren’t the other games released at the same time $200 as well?

I’ve wondered the same thing. You have Jack Bros. which is double the cost of the next closest U.S. game, then there’s the Space Invaders hovering around $800.

Bigmak, how does one go about getting on the list for a copy of fan-made releases like fishing? I know I’m not a “seasoned veteran” on this forum, but I’d love to be able to get in touch with the right people.

all of the past reproductions and releases (translations, homebrew, etc) showed up on uncle tusk’s site. i am assuming it will be the same for future releases: http://www.uncletusk.com/27-virtual-boy

hyper fighting, of course, being the only one that did not because it was “released” by a different “team” of people and done so privately.

Thanks Lester! I checked out the page and there’s nothing but boxes on there now. How often do these gems get released, and how do we get “dibs” on them? I’m assuming they go quick!

Jesus I wish I had the extra money! THAT is an amazing grab!
