Mario's Tennis on Nintendo Classics is broken

So I decided to play some Mario's Tennis earlier, as one does, and there's a cheat code to unlock Expert mode in the game. In order to unlock it, you press L-L-R-L-R-Select. But the issue is that the Nintendo Classics app lists L and R in Mario's Tennis as not used, so they're instead mapped to A and B. This basically means that it's impossible to access Expert Mode.

I've looked around and I can't find anybody else that's reported this, so it's just an FYI I guess. I'll try to report it to Nintendo so they can fix it, but we'll see how it goes. I also hope they add better screen capture to the app.

Has anyone else noticed any weird behavior in the app?

Virtual boy 64

I was thinking about this yesterday. Could someone theoretically make something like a super gameboy cartridge, but for playing virtual boy games on the n64?

[Virtual Boy] No Power Need Help

I have a virtual boy I am trying to repair. The console originally had a display issue which was remedied by soldering in replacement eye patch ribbon cables. Worked great and was played for maybe 30 minutes a couple times. After being brought home, it stopped working during a game and never turned back on. The console's small DC power board has a red light when turned on and the speakers make a quiet pop sound when the console is turned off. No other sounds come from the console and no light from the displays. I checked voltages on each of the cable connectors from the main board (although I don't know the correct voltages) and they all appear to be present. What could possibly be be the cause?
