Nintendo Switch Virtual Boy Wireless Controller PCB

Note: This is a preorder for the V2 hardware with Switch enabled firmware.  Minimum number of preorders has been hit.  Units should start delivering from mid March to mid April.  Thanks!
 
Turn your original Nintendo Virtual Boy controller into a wireless Bluetooth controller for Nintendo Switch 1 & 2. This RetroOnyx PCB upgrade replaces the original VB controller PCB and lets you use the real Virtual Boy controller hardware with Nintendo Switch Online Virtual Boy. It also supports PC, BlueRetro adapters, and Meta Quest through VBGo mode.
 
You can order just the PCB for a DIY upgrade or a fully upgraded VB controller. The full controller option will be available for a limited time while used controller parts are available. Full controllers use original VB hardware, so expect minor cosmetic wear but nothing major.
 
For the DIY PCB route, you'll need to reuse everything else in your controller except the PCBs.  Even new trigger PCBs are included.  Some soldering will be required.   You will also need a separate battery pack to complete your controller setup for Switch.  You can use an original VB battery pack, a RetroOnyx battery pack, or even a LaserBear battery pack.  
 
This upgrade has also been tested on Switch 1 & 2, PC, Mednafen, and Meta Quest.  My RetroOnyx BlueRetro receiver can also enable original VB compatibility.  All modes use Bluetooth, so a BlueRetro receiver is NOT required for PC or Meta Quest HMD use—only for original Virtual Boy hardware.
 
This Switch version of the VB wireless controller also supports future haptic modules (not included). Actual NSO Virtual Boy support for haptics will depend on Nintendo. The controller hardware supports dual haptic modules similar to the Switch Pro controller and has been successfully tested. Mechanical mounting hardware for installing haptics in the VB controller is still in development. 
 
NOTE: This wireless controller is NOT compatible with my RetroOnyx ESP-Now receivers.  That was V1 of the wireless controller PCB.  Please do not confuse the two versions.  A BlueRetro receiver is needed for VB use with this V2 firmware.  Reach out with any questions prior to ordering.
