Virtual Boy..Price?

[Tristicus]

I recently came upon someone that wants to buy my Virtual Boy. I had no idea people actually wanted these things, but I looked on eBay and some where going for $300+ in perfect condition. Mine is missing the visor and the stand I believe, but has Mario Tennis, Tetris, and Wario World. How much would it be worth?

Sorry if this isn't allowed, but I didn't know where else.

Did you look at completed listings on eBay or did you just see what people were TRYING to get for them? Looking at completed listings, it seems most Virtual Boys are actually selling for $100 or less.

 

[Tristicus]

They average there for a good condition one seems to be about $100.

The guy offered me $50 with shipping.

how can you put a price on self-inflicted blindness?

I still have mine somewhere, but I think the stand broke so it's pretty useless.

I still have mine. I remember getting it at Wal-Mart really cheap.

I uh......Like it. However I only have Mario Tennis.

I heard only the boxing game and Wario game are the only other two besides Tennis that was good.

The AVGN covered the Virtual Boy and all the games.

Two problems with it. Red & NOTHING WAS REALLY VIRTUAL.

However the red as kinda cool......Biggest flaw in my opinion.....NO HEAD STRAP!

It should be illegal to sell anyone, even your worst enemy, a Virtual Boy. All Virtual Boys should be confiscated and destroyed. That thing is a health hazard. Why people paid money so that they could get migraines and seizures is beyond me...

My buddy had one. I played that "3D" Mario game for an hour or two. I'm surprised I didn't end up blind after that brief encounter. Man, the Virtual Boy was horrible...

 

[Tristicus]

I played it hours on end when I was a kid.

Harmless and awesome. Hold onto it, or you'll be sad that you didn't.

 

[Tristicus]

Well, I've been unable to find it thus far. I'm in a bad monetary situation, and that is why I need to sell stuff.

I don't care what any of you say, I <3 Virtual Boy. When my local EB was selling them for dirt cheap after it was discontinued I was both aghast at all the people that wouldn't buy one, yet joyous because now I could buy one instead of occassionally renting it from Blockbuster.

Teleroboxer might be the best game of all time for any console ever.
