The horizontal 3d is fun, not many games use this. |

I'm not sure what you're asking, but yes - these are Virtual Boy games (loaded on a couple of flash carts) |

Virtual Boy was cartridge based, these flash carts are cool because they have e-ink displays in them so that you can load custom label images to see what game you have flashed. This is what an original cart looks like |

Here's the most important thing. Are they dumped so I can add them to my Red Viper collection? |

Yes, it happened within an hour of them landing on NSO 👍 |

Wow, I've never heard of a flash cartridge with e-ink display. That's awesome! Is Virtual Boy the only system with them? If not, where can they be found for purchase? |

These specific Virtual Boy carts aren't being made any more, unfortunately. You can still find them for insane prices on eBay though. At the time, I think these were the only ones that did something like this. Now, if you Google around I believe you can find a couple other projects out there for other systems that have some sort of display built into the cartridge so it can display a game label. Not sure how many are finished products you can buy, or how many are open source projects that you would need to DIY. |
