Gaming Nintendo Classics - Virtual Boy: FW requirement

[jnl1]

Hi there,
which FW requirement has the Nintendo Classics - Virtual Boy app?
I am on OFW 20.1.0 and AMS 1.9.4 but this seems not new enough.

Have you tried installing it with a newer keys.txt?

No, from where do I get a newer keys.txt?

Google, you won't get them here

Does the Virtual Boy games require any accessories to play even on a modded switch?

I don't think it's available yet, at least not publicly. I have been checking the two public places I know, and they still dont have it.

According to this: https://www.nintendo.com/us/online/nintendo-switch-online/expansion-pack/

"Virtual Boy games require an additional accessory to play, which you can purchase here while supplies last."

You do need accessories: https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/coming-soon/

Just use the retroarch core, then you can make the screen black and white

20.1.5 seems to be the requirement
