Virtual Boy Hints...

For those of you who have recently aquired a VB system (yes, I succumb as
well...) Here are a few hints from the Nintendo Web site:

For the Baseball game:

Miracle Team Passwords-Kemco

Use these passwords to pit these national teams against the incredible
Miracle team:

 USA: 0 (club) (club) 4 3
 Cuba: 2 (club) 4 1 4
 Singapore: ! (club) 4 0 3
 Australia: ? (club) 0 8 3
 France: (spade) (club) 8 8 2
 Germany: (club) (club) 2 8 1
 United Kingdom: (diamond) (club) ! (spade) 1

For the Tennis Game:

To get a tougher, more realistic game, on the Title screen, press L, L, R, L,
R, SELECT. If done correctly, you will hear a "ding."

I haven't tried any of these yet... Please sahre if you find any other such
info! Thanks Lauren for your list of the available (or maybe not...) VB
games. So far I have managed to find 11, and would like a complete set as it
would seem that Nintendo is giving up on this system...

Another thing no one has mentioned yet is the sound some of these games
produce. The stereo sound is amazing, and adds many times to the overall
effect created by the Stereo view. 

Also, for those who are not impresed with the red/black color scheme, I think
Nintendo's answer summs it up best: "We could have easily made it full color,
but by not adding the green and blue, we were able to triple the resolution.
Besides, then it would have cost three times as much."  

For those of you teetering out there, GET THIS SYSTEM!!! It is worth every
penny of $29.99 IMHO.
