Yeah, at my stores, they're about $5 each. That's why I bought a pack of 10 for $1.25 from China.

Does anyone know how to get the Zombie Revenge mini games? There is supposed to be a Mini Games option on the main menu but I don't see one. Do you have to beat the game first maybe?

I've thought about it but it's really hard to record the VMU screen. If I ever find a good way to do it then I probably will.

I think if you use a the 'all singing and dancing' vmu programme (I forget what it's called :x ) then you should be ok. It has a function to allow you to watch VMU games on your tv/screen. Then you'd simply use your capture card as per usual.

I was told this recently........but, come to think about it more deeply, how the fuck would you do that ?? :? :lol:

edit: I think the programme is VMUBackupCD. I think it emulates the games. I'm really not too sure, I need someone to come dig me outta this hole !! :lol:

Yeah, it's called Dream Explorer. Link below. It has a VMU emulator built in. I could use that but I'd rather not as I would prefer to show the real thing. I've never really liked emulators.

Ah well, in that case, I guess you'll just have to use a video camera which has a macro mode. Stick it on a tripod and away you go :)

Glad i could help ;) Well i've seen a guy recording vmu footage, lights out, with just one light behind the screen and looked decent.

I suppose you could try and adapt one of those magnifier/front-lights that were made for the GBA and Neo Geo Pocket etc It depends on how far you want to go ! lol

There are also vmu emulators, including VMU emulators for the DC where you could play the vmu games on your tv with the dc controller. It sorta defeats the point, but how many of you guys are playing vmus on the go these days anyway ;)
