Title: Virtual Boy - Various Games - NTSC
Post by: Paul on April 19, 2009, 06:47:36 PM
Hey everyone!  I just won an ebay virtual boy auction and was hoping that we could try to get virtual boy covers going.

I remember someone made an attempt as a DS game case cover for virtual boy games a while back, and was hoping that we can continue that idea.

The games I need covers for are the following:

Mario's Tennis
Wario Land
Teleroboxer
Galactic Pinball

These would be in DS game cases.  If we could get NTSC covers, that would be great.

Thanks!

EDIT:

This was the thread I was thinking of:

They should be back up at:

Let me know watcha think  :P


BTW, if you're looking for game recommendations, Wario Land, Mario Clash, and Jack Bros (but its expensive) are the best (IMO) of the US releases (total of only 14 :().  Vertical Force and Teleroboxer aren't bad either  ;)

what do I think?  I think these covers are absolutely amazing.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Also, in the ebay auction that I won, it comes with Mario Tennis, Wario Land, Galactic Pinball, and Teleroboxer.

I do, eventually, plan on buying all of the U.S. released games.

Thanks again everyone!

And I really think that these covers should be uploaded and have a virtual boy section on the site.

I think that it would make TCP shine like a star seeing that there aren't any other sites with covers made for Virtual Boy games.

Anyway, Thanks again!

A big chunk of the thanks should go to shenske for the template he made.  ;) Also, a few of these are not the best quality due to lack of available scans (mainly waterworld and nester's funky bowling), so if you somehow come across boxed copies during your collecting, scan them in and let me know, and I'll redo those covers.

They fit quite nicely in the manual spot.

i still find that the case bends a bit due to the size of the cart. Do you see that as well?

I'm assuming you're using the thinner US-style cases? I just tried a game in one of those, and yeah, it bends.

But I have them in the thicker EU cases, and it fits perfectly.
