Curious to see if anyone has a Virtual Boy collection or plays it.

I have an unsealed Virtual Boy in a box with Warioland, Red Alarm, Teleroboxer, Mario Clash, and Mario Tennis.

I'm big on the Virtual Boy, and if anyone here is an avid Virtual Boy enthusiast, if they've had a chance to play any of the development communities' games?

I've got one and it is a great machine. I'd really like to see the Street Fighter port get widely released.

Really dig the sound of the unit.

Hell no. I had the opportunity to purchase one for 20 bucks when I was in Minnesota. Why would I pay for something I can drop in the toilet myself?

I bought one for $25 new when retailers where trying to get rid of them. I have mario tennis and wario land, I thought the system produced a neat 3d like image imo. But there just is not enough good games to make it worthwhile.

I bought one at a local flea market. It works great and looks wonderful sitting in my collection (although that stand sucks)...but I'm blind in my right eye so I can't really take advantage of it. So I haven't bought any games for it. :( One day I may buy some games for it because it does look rather lonely and my husband is curious about it.

I saw that. It looked like it ran smoothly. I've seen some homebrews of Mario Kart as well.

It's fun to mess about with, and it's a great conversation piece. It's a pretty bad system though.
