    Yeh there is no way getting VGA output on something like the Virtual Boy would be simple. The thing has it's own set of screens to produce a 3D effect. You'd have to intercept the output and hope it is something either documented or readily apparent and then run it through some hardware to not only take the 3D and convert it into something that won't be a mess on a single screen but generate a sync signal as well as changes to the horizontal refresh rate, let alone vertical.
