  • Every single Virtual Boy game released in North America was trapped on the console. Getting a Virtual Boy is expensive and difficult, but now we have full Virtual Boy emulation on 3DS with Red Viper, including stereoscopic 3D support, and it is amazing!
    Lets dive into the Virtual Boy itself, the games, and if Red Viper on the 3DS is now the best way to experience the Virtual Boy.

    This video is visually stunning! Wow dude! Awesome overview as well. I've only ever played Mario Tennis once on an actual Virtual Boy demo unit back when they were for sale. Playing it again on the 3DS was almost a magical experience. It brought me right back to that day. I'm so glad we live in an age where stuff like this is possible through dedicated people. It's so weird Nintendo never did this themselves. Great video man!

      Thank you so much dude! I know right, it seemed so perfect and I’m so glad it’s as amazing as I imagined it could be. Funny enough, I was showing it all to Sally last night, and she was playing Galactic Pinball. She hit a bonus and suddenly the Metroid logo shows up and you’re in Samus’s gunship! Yokoi’s R&D1 also made the Metroid series, which I totally forgot about

    I actually rented a Virtual Boy from Blockbuster way back when, it was very interesting! I'll leave a more substantial comment if need be, I tend to leave a more detailed conversational one as sometimes I'm still working when I see these post. Also, I'll be moving into my own 1br apartment April 26th yay! Happy gaming!! -Marcus

    "Playing in a void" Yep! That's the best way to describe it that I've ever heard! Virtual Boy was ahead of its time.
    I had Red Dragon installed on my 3DS and tried out a few games then deleted it because every one of them was glitchy. I didn't have my expectations to high when I heard about Red Viper. Boy, was I surprised! Every game works flawlessly and I love how you can change the color palette, something you couldn't do on original hardware! 😂
    Side note: classic DOOM on the 3DS is one of the best ways I've ever played it on a handheld!

    the headache is caused by dlp shift. you see the screen is projected by a vertical line of led lights that flash at the same frequency as a tiny warp in the mirror. stretching the reflection across the mirror as it flashes. it is mechanical it can make people sick and give them headaches because of the movement.

    • @TynologyGaming
      @TynologyGaming  3 місяці тому

      Yeah it’s fascinating the led array being 1 pixel wide. I took one of mine apart to repair the ribbon cable that was messing up. Makes sense that the fluttering mirrors would cause the headaches for sure 👍

    if your willing to put a small hole in the battery holder, you could make fake battery's that have wires on them leading out of the hole and down to a generic ac adapter. a 3d printer would help here to make cleaner blanks, but you could also do it with wooden dowels small enough to fit in the case. I'm thinking you'd only have to make the first and last battery as I looked up the voltage on a picture of the ac adapter and it's 10v and I believe I saw you putting in AA's to get 10v off that seven would have to be in series thus only one pole of the first battery and the other pole of the last battery actually connect to anything other then another battery. a multi meter would come in handy to find which spot inside connects to what spot outside. and find an adapter that supports at least 1 amp at 10 volts and you'll have a "battery pack" that never runs out of power since it's actually plugged in.

    • @TynologyGaming
      @TynologyGaming  3 місяці тому +1

      Yeah I think you’re right and that seems to be basically what the tap adapter does (and utilizes the SNES AC adapter officially). This pack was expensive also, so I’m fine as it is as I don’t play for long and pop in batteries for single sessions. Thanks for the info!!

    I can't see blue for a while after I play my VB. Lol but it is an underated system. It did neglect a large feature, it wasn't multiplayer. It almost was, there was going to be a system link but it was left out last moment for some reason. Some games have been hacked to unlock the multiplayer features. This is cool for those that dont have or cant afford a real VB.

      There are dozens of emulators on the 3DS for various consoles; Red Viper is the only fully functional Virtual Boy emulator with stereoscopic 3D support. It picked up where r3Ddragon left off (the first VB emulator that was basically unplayable).
