Selling my original Blockbuster Rental Virtual Boy case + 5 games bundle ($900 shipped)

Hey everyone,

A couple of months ago, I pulled my old Blockbuster Virtual Boy setup out of storage where it’s been sitting for the past 30 years. It’s completely original, unopened, and unmodified, and everything works great (both internal screens are crisp with no horizontal line glitches or flickering).

What’s included:

Hardware & Accessories: Virtual Boy head unit, controller, stand, battery pack, AC adapter, and AC tap adapter.

Case: Original Blockbuster Video hardshell case with the front sticker, inner instruction panel, and original zip-tied laminated rental tag. The internal foam is original, but is starting to degrade due to age.

5 Games (Loose): Wario Land, Mario Clash, Red Alarm, Galactic Pinball, and Mario's Tennis (a few have store rental initials on the labels).

Asking $900 shipped (includes tracked ground shipping, full insurance, and signature confirmation). Payment via PayPal Goods & Services.

Photos are attached showing the console, games, case tags, and the display running. Feel free to comment below or send a message if you're interested!

Pulled my Virtual Boy out of storage. I can't believe this held up for the past 30 years (reposted to get images working properly)

My dad said he had some of my things stored away, and this was among them. I had completely forgotten about this thing, and the nostalgia hit like a truck! I'm surprised I never cut the rental tag off, but I'm glad I didnt. I used to rent this thing all the time, and then one day I came home from school and my parents said it was mine. Unfortunately it isn't working, but I read about the "solder fix" and when I turn off the power the speakers give a clear pop.

Seeing how rare these are, and I don't really see myself doing anything with it I'll plan on getting it into the hands of a collector who can restore it soon.

UPDATE: So amazing news... I was just being way too delicate pushing the cartridges in! This thing is working fully after 30 years! All my time with new tech has given me a soft touch.

Wario Land booted up just fine!

While I'm looking forward to completing an army and playing one day, I really wanted to get into the hobby for the painting. Dove head first into volumetrics.
