Seriously want this!
Also, there is a RetroArch3DS being made, so who knows. Also contacted a few other Devs to see if their Works can be Ported to the 3DS, so who knows. Maybe will get some more Devs interested in the 3DS Scene soon ;)

I want it too.

Probably not more devs than we already have will come, because it's so impractical to hack it.

(I.e Cubic Ninja costs $40, Gateway costs $60, Sky costs $90, so you must be willing to spend a lot of money to be in. And have the appropriate FW on your 3DS.)

I really hope this emulator gets polished to be on pair with GameYob 3DS/blargSNES.
I hope to see the light of day in which we can finally play all the Virtual Boy library in real 3D with sound and good framerate.
23 games (or so) for a complete library of games isn't that much!

:D

I got nothing to say against a VirtualBoy-Emu but what i can't understand is, how many people are literally sh**ing their pants to see one done, the library of games is small and i played them all and gotta say, there have been 3 (in words: three) games that where half-decent, i played them in 3d on my samsung-TV and the 3d isn't even good, you can clearly see how this was coded when 3d-movie-technology was new... And yet an emulator for this piece of eye-pain is more anticipated then finally getting gba-emulation back to have those (better, newer, just as working AND more iconic) games working for users of fakesigned CIAs and ninjhax, again... it's strange to say the least

I've heard that VB has one of the best homebrew scene around... Maybe people are waiting for that.

I feel like bumping this thread in the homebrew section is a bad idea, since it's too early in development and it will only disappoint people hoping to find something playable.
Besides, my finals are coming up and I won't have a lot of time to work on it, so there won't be much progress anyway.

I'll make a thread once there's something I can show. In the meantime, this is where you should go.

I saw a .cia of this in the Thread you Linked. Exactly how should the File Structure be for trying to run it? Or if anything, how would I go to compile it with a Rom?

I tried the VB Flappy/Snake (both are Snake by the way). There is a slight issue with this, even with the other .cia I got with the N3DS. You Start the App, and then the Screens are blank. Hit the Home Button, and then it Pops up. Same kind of Issue I had with GameYob before they fixed it.

Because of Virtual Boy Wario Land, which is one of the greatest 2D platformers ever made.

    I would like a Predator game "Kill Team" it takes place in the Jungle of the first movie, your team is sent to hunt the predator, using current tech drones and a trained team. Set traps use strategy to hunt and trap or kill the predator.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    I went today and looked at a motorcycle someone was selling. I get there and the battery on it was dead, so the guy grabbed a battery charger and hooked it up. He plugged it into the wall, and the motorcycle sparked and started smoking. Come to find out the bike uses a 6 volt battery and the guy had the charger set to 12v. I said sorry to the dude and walked away. I felt bad for him tho.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Sounds like it would be an exciting ride....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure I would want something on fire between my legs
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    He ruined it basically. Sad cause it was a decent old bike. It would take more money to rewire the bike than it was worth tho.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I'm sure at minimum the starter was fried
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
