You will need this software / hardware list to run it​

• Android Phone

• Retroarch for Android

Nice. If only there was cardboard for my ol Galaxy Tab 2 7". Still, this is something I would love to try out, especially if I could track down that MidiMaze/Faceball Virtualboy game.

I'm a strong supporter of VR, but without being able to look left and right I feel this could be weird. I will try this out though for sure.

There should be an option where you have to put on the VirtualBoy in the VR space and manage all the disadvantages of the original hardware.

i couldn't get this running when i tried a few months ago, kept getting it to work, but the image was off on my screen. im going to give it another go, it was a BITCH to set up last time.

Too late!! I would rather try using Pockulus C.H.I.P. with my Pocket C.H.I.P. when it arrives on June or July .

Good to know, now I just have to buy a GearVR or buy/build a cardboard.
Soon™.
And also perhaps buy a PS4 gamepad to play games. The old OUYA one I've been using is kind of lousy.

I use a PS4 controller, with my S6 it has issues :/ maybe if you have root tho, you can fix it, idk.

You can get one on ebay for like $1.50 they work fine. There are also giveaways for them pretty often, and a certain porn site also gives them away, gotta search that yourself tho (I have heard shipping is long tho your probably better off buying one.)

You're very knowledgeable Commander Ikari. Specially regarding that VR Porn site.
I see the path to be reunited again with your special one is very hard, even for you.

The emulator runs on grayscale too, as shown in the video.

Thank God!

That adult website is giving cardboards away again, if you do order one, I think they say vr porn on them, so make sure whoever else lives at your house won't be in shock. (Of course you can use it for cardboard apps) Also like $1.50 on ebay, so if your live with your gf/wife/parents, I would go that route.
