DIY Gameboy For Enthusiasts
Why bother go through the hassle of building your own Gameboy when you can purchase a used one for around $20 on eBay? Well, the passion and satisfaction factors cannot be ruled out, which is why this open source Gameboy known as the Gamepack uses off-the-shelf parts, and is driven by the modder-friendly Arduino microprocessor. The display works much better than the old school Gameboy though, using a 128 × 128 TouchShield Stealth color OLED touch screen, accompanied by an Inputshield board that offers a rumble-ready joystick and control buttons. This DIY Gameboy is powered by a flat Lithium battery pack, and will only run on homebrew demo code. Hopefully someone will come up with a Nintendo emulator so that ROMs can be played over this. The Gamepack kit will retail for $249, which is more than enough to pick up 10 used Gameboys, but none of those will be as clean or as cool as yours.
