Hi
I have two Socrates systems. One system is in the box. I would say the box is in average condition, there is some wear and tear and a little tape, but it isn't trashed. I also have a complete copy of Around the World for the Socrates. The game's box has some wear and tear as well. The systems come console and keyboard only. I don't have any type of rf unit or ac adaptor. Since I don't have any of the hookups for the consoles I wasn't able to test them, so they come as is. If anyone is interested make me an offer. Also, I need a virtual boy ac adaptor, so if anyone has an extra one then maybe we can work out a trade. I will send a picture on request, if anyone is interested. Thanks

Is this system rare at all? I saw one at a thrift store recently, but passed it up. Also, do you need the AC adapter, or the AC adappter adapter for the VB?

You know I'm not really sure how rare they are. I've seen a couple on ebay before and If I remember correctly they were around $10, but I didn't watch them end. I've heard mention of the system before in the discussion pages, but I've never heard mention of its' rarity. I need the virtual boy ac adaptor.

Good luck on the AC adapter. It's essentially a SNES adapter, but there is a "tap" required for it to go into, then to plug into the VB. Nintendo doesn't sell them anymore, but you might be able to find a "Nintendo Authorized Service Center" near you that might still have them.

Yeah I've been having a little trouble finding one. I recently picked up a virtual boy in the box with virtual tennis and with all the paperwork and everything for $30, but it didn't include an ac adaptor. I've watched some on ebay, but most of the adaptors are either really expensive and come in the box, or are included in a set with a virtual boy and games. I'm not really interested in buying another virtual boy with games just to get the adaptor and I'd be perfectly content with a boxless adaptor, so I figured I may get lucky and find someone with an extra one.
