New Star Fox style game planned for the Nintendo Virtual Boy
If you are at all familiar with the Virtual Boy then you may have read about Hyper Fighting, the Street Fighter II port from Mr. Anon and MK. The clever designer behind the game's fighting engine, MK, has recently posted a discussion thread to gauge interest for a possible crowdfunded Nintendo Virtual Boy shooter-on-rails. The game is said to be "Star Fox"-like, and is being planned to include 10 levels and boss fights. According to the outline provided upon request, it is at the $50 tier that the chance of purchasing a physical Complete-In-Box release for an additional $99 becomes a reality. However, the fine print reads "available in limited quantities".
50 Euro: (available in limited quantities)
- rewards from the previous tier
- opportunity to buy a physical copy of the Limited Collectors Edition (VB version only)
NOTE: This tier does NOT include the costs for the cartridge! Buying the cartridge will cause additional costs of around 99$ (USD).
With the Patreon backed updates of the Virtual Boy Development Engine and the recent release of 2 different link cables, the future of VB homebrew looks bright in red!
