This is very awesome I just played a few games in it. Really feels like the way these games were meant to be played on a 3DS console.
The stories of its development are well-established at this point. There were severe limitations on the display technology that were largely unrelated to RAM.
I have no idea where you are getting these ideas.While the games would still have been all red, even one extra MB of ram in the console would have made things better
Also I have no idea who was doing that.People trying to sell Virtual Boy games for years by having then in the Gameboy games section and hoping one was stupid?

This is truly an incredible achievement! A Virtual Boy emulator for the 3DS is exactly the type of thing one would think is really cool and fitting but I'd personally never held faith that anyone would go and make one

Who cares!? The people running the store might have been ignorant enough to think they were the same thing.A store that no longer exists, it was in a mall. Wish I had taken pictures but alas this was years before I had a Smartphone.
Even if that does somehow make sense (and it does not), it's not like there were developers who were clamoring to develop for this thing but felt that the limitations of one less megabyte of RAM (!?) were holding them back.Look is really not that hard. The more ram the more intructions that can be held on memory as a result the more that can be displayed at once in a screen even if the screen is just red leds and glass.
Wait, so theoretically speaking we could run Mode7 SNES games on 3DS?To the contrary , Virtual Boy is a 32bit generation toy, more powerfull than the snes but with a limited gameboy / wonderswan color palette.
There's a very impressive SNES emulator called blargSnes that runs F-Zero at full speed, though it lacks support for expansion chips used by games like Super Mario Kart. I looked to it for inspiration when I got started on the renderer.Wait, so theoretically speaking we could run Mode7 SNES games on 3DS?

What's "theortical" about it? Nintendo themselves sold Super Mario Kart and other Mode 7 games on the eShop.Wait, so theoretically speaking we could run Mode7 SNES games on 3DS?
Attempts have been made with homebrew and... still looks like a GBC color game all in red at best.
To say people were not impressed is an understatement. The 3D may have been technically better that the Master System 3D glasses but it looked worse, caused headaches and needed an entire different videogame console just for the 3D.
Same thing in my sideHey, I'm listening all the praises to Red Viper 3DS and, of course, went after it, to try it myself. But I think I was left out of this party, unfortunately... You see: everytime I load Red Viper and try to open a game, my N3DS crashes.
I thought it was some misconfiguration I made, or something was outdated... But no, all other emulators and homebrew software just work.
Help?
I installed the cia file.have you tried both the .3dsx and .cia? I installed the .cia, pointed it to a rom, and it just... worked. Do you have your dsp dumped? I'm probably not even on the latest 3ds firmware, and I'm definitely not on the latest and greatest Luma, because I've had no reason to update anything. And I have fastboot3ds as my bootloader.
Oh, and it seems some people here don't realize there are other virtual boy emulators. Directly through SideQuest, you can install VirtualBoyGo on the Quest and play in VR (much bigger screen than a 3dsxl).
I installed the cia file.
DSP file was already dumped.
I saved the crash dump file and took a screenshot of the code shown.
N3DS has the latest firmware installed.
video spam
is the rom you're trying to launch an official dump, or homebrew?I installed the cia file.

Couldn't get hyper fighting working.
