Virtual Boy was released by Nintendo on July 21, 1995. It is a table-top game machine and a virtual reality machine that allows users to enjoy a completely new and unprecedented game experience in 3D.

The dual-display system replaces the conventional TV screen to achieve a vivid, fully three-dimensional representation.

What We Did Before This Ships

Every console we sell is opened up and serviced by hand.
We don't just confirm it powers on — we look inside.

  • This unit was fully disassembled and cleaned internally; dust was removed from all components.
  • All boards and electrical contacts were cleaned with ethanol and a fast-drying, residue-free electronics cleaner to remove oxidation and residue.
  • Moving mechanical parts were lubricated with a light application of silicone grease for smooth, quiet operation. (We do not apply grease to electrical contacts — they are cleaned only.)
  • Electrolytic capacitors are replaced only when there is visible corrosion or leakage — nothing more, nothing less. For console families known for capacitor failure, a full recap is performed as standard.
  • If a console cannot be properly restored, we do not sell it.
  • After reassembly, the unit is tested with an actual game: video, sound, and controller input are all confirmed.
  • Before we seal the box, we power the console on one more time and confirm it is still working.
  • Every console includes 30 days of support after it reaches you.

A note on power: This is a battery-powered handheld and does not connect to household mains, so no voltage transformer is required. (Batteries are not included unless stated.)

A note on region: This is a Japanese Virtual Boy. The hardware is region-free — Virtual Boy cartridges from North America will play on this unit without any restriction. The unit runs on 6 AA batteries (or an optional AC Tap accessory).

If anything here isn't covered, just ask — questions are always welcome.
