HyperBoy+ Virtual Boy ROM Cart – Final Batch?
https://retrorgb.com/hyperboy-virtual-boy-rom-cart-final-batch.html
Ever wonder what it feels like to dust off a ’90s relic and give it a modern twist? Kevin Mellott just announced the likely last run of his HyperBoy+ Virtual Boy flash cart, and it’s causing a nostalgic stir.
The HyperBoy+ is a 32‑mbit single‑flash cartridge you load via PC—compatible with every retail and homebrew VB title you can find. At $215, the carts are slated to ship this spring, but they’re truly limited: Kevin bought the final batch of those quirky four‑color eInk screens (black, white, red, yellow), and the other internal parts have reached end‑of‑life. In short, once these ships, you’ve got a collector’s item.
Don’t despair if you miss out; Kevin still churns smaller batches of alternative VB carts—Mr Cart and HyperFlash32—each with its own quirks (size, speed, flash capacity). A quick side‑by‑side look will help you pick the right fit for your retro library.
Bottom line: snag a HyperBoy+ now if you want the most “complete” VB experience, or explore the other options before they too fade into obscurity. Happy hunting!
