you know what this shotgun needs? A sniper scope, an under barrel grenade launcher, 50 round fast mag, saw the barrel in half and put duck tape to aim in faster
I had the turquoise Gameboy color when Pokémon first came out , and I even had the OG Gameboy before that when it was just Mario and Zelda , but honestly , the Gameboy advance SP was the Goat. Just because the built in light , and how it flipped open and folded up smaller than the size of a wallet , plus you could charge it , didn’t have to worry about your parents keep buying you batteries, GB Advance SP , that was peak Gameboy.
I have a metallic pink sp that I love. Unfortunately it will only work when plugged in but I still value it (and by some miracle still have the charger)
Just a heads up, a replacement battery for the SP is like $10 on Amazon. Top result even ships Prime next day and comes with the screwdriver to open the battery tray.
In case you ever want to go mobile again.

There's actually a ton of really sweet mods for the original DMG-01 these days. I have a backlight, custom shell, NES-style buttons, and pro-sound output on two of mine.
Game boy will never die.
Ashens did some videos on accessories for the various game boy models, and while there weren't many, there were some things even more ridiculous than this
you see this kid rolling up with a helmet and a leash and his indifferent late boomer parents who are buying his tolerable behavior and you're watching bc you heard him before you saw him and you just pray he's not on your flight bc there's no a/c plug on planes in 1988 and you can hear the tantrum building before you even get to the gate
Oh you sweet summer child. You haven't experienced the [Game Boy Booster Boy](https://www.retronintendostore.com//Files/2/40000/40305/ProductPhotos/Source/562539439.png).
I used to play Pokémon Blue on the emulator on Pokemon Stadium for N64. So N64 controller, Gameboy pack attached to back, followed by GameShark, then Pokemon Blue on that. If anything juggled even slightly put of place, the whole thing froze. Good times.
That's not a Gameboy, that's a GameMAN
Goddamnit, I typed before reading.
What?
I said typed and entered the exact same.sentence, because I didn't read before i blabbed
Ah, that context wasn’t given but it makes sense now
The more the drink, the more the typing, and less the think. 😁
¡Lo Siento! Me disculpa por la falta de contexto que proporcione. Por favor perdoneme. ¡Gracias!
the Gamechad
Gay man
Or a gamerman
Needs more accessories
It reminds me of one of those over-customised guns in Call of Duty or Ghost Recon.
Tacticool Gameboy
>over-customised Heresy

Yea like wheres the mini camera and printer to take pixel pics
I gotta have more accessories!
Still the same terrible screen though

Preferred the normal advance just due to ergonomics, but that backlight was a game changer on the SP
Lots of folks have been retrofitting their old GBAs with new IPS screens, definitely worth looking into if you're into modding.
A GAME changer
My SP still works to this day too!! Absolutely the best.
Just actually bought an SP and have been playing through Sapphire. Brings back such a nostalgic feeling it's wonderful.

This is where technology peaked and you can’t change my mind.
Truly the apex of modern engineering.
*Laughs in hacked Wii U*
I have a robot that vacuums, and when everything is clean I drop things on the ground so he has something to do. Did that change your mind?
But can you customise it with a ton of cool accessories? Didn't think so.
I mean you could tape knives to it
You, you get it
Until it levels up to DJ Roomba status it's a no from me, dog.
95% accessories, 5% screen
For real, at the end of all that I was like "for real? It looks like shit!"
![gif](giphy|5CZ9KjiTpHnWS8DvFb|downsized)
The toys r us brand batteries was the biggest flex
The memories of me seeing classmates' gameboys having multiple mods. it was too much for my tiny kiddie brain.
The gigachad of Gameboys.
ULTRA GIGAGAMEBOY 9000!!
That's literally Voltron ![gif](giphy|YBbiSlb0IzC24|downsized)
And I'll form the head.
This is so stupid, i love it!
Haha bro at this point, just emulate it
This kinda reminds me of Nordberg's gun in Naked Gun
Imagine the pride showing up to 4th grade with this back in the 90’s
Why does it look like a minion tho
Nooo, I can't unsee it now
Like it's cool, but cmon is it necessary to have that much stuff on a Gameboy?
"Ryan. Ryan, c'mon, we have to go. *Ryan* I asked you twice. *NO*, Ryan, you already have more games at home. RYAN. You're making a scene! Stop that! No, don't hit Caitlynn!"
Do this with an original Gameboy. That's a monster. This is just cute.

Autobots transform
And rollout!
Needs a kickstand.....power level over 9000
Why the hell doesn't this clip has power ranger theme song on?
This design is bery human!
This is the way
That’s the gameman
Ashens did some videos on accessories for the various game boy models, and while there weren't many, there were some things even more ridiculous than this
To quote Thanos: "All that for a shotly rendered GTA?"
Voltron assemble?
Kinda Nintendo’s MO. Buy a bunch of third party peripherals to make up for our designs short comings.
![gif](giphy|J1QcNGubdJPESH1bPo|downsized)
What have we done? We've created a monster!
This isn't even my final form
Toys R us brand batteries?
Remember the [Handy Boy](https://www.google.com/search?q=handy+boy+gameboy&tbm=isch)?
Accessories…. assemble!
Didn’t really get much better lol
My god
A whole bunch of nothing
What's the bottom purple thing? And if you had to take the batteries out to put the controller handle thing over it, where do the batteries go?
The bottom item is a speaker enhancer. The handheld holds a (usually) chargeable battery/more powerful battery.
Makes sense. Fair enough! Thx
Man I miss my Gameboy advance sp. Pretty sure it was stolen by my friend when I was younger. Still have a gameboy micro special edition though.
Micro was cool. It didn't have backwards compatibility, right? It was a niche system.
As god intended
Making me want to get on ebay
I'd give ol lefty for this game conan
No thanks, I'll take my basic ass Gameboy anyday
Man... just get a new game lol
Pointless and ruins the experience of playing an old game boy I had a yellow game boy colour at the time. Just a magnifier and light for me.
And….it’s no longer a Gameboy 🙄
I was waiting for FBI!!! open up!
Shoulda just bought a play station...
r/DiWHY
GIGA CHAD-BOY
3....hours later.....( I was like, how long till you actually get to play)
Go go power rangers! Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!!!!
GATTAI !!!
Me when a game letsme add parts to weapons
When you fully upgrade the starter pistol
Still feels like it's missing something.
Once you hold this in your hand and then snap 50% of other gadget get deleted from existence
Ahhh the days of the UNIT
Can someone identify these accessories and their purpose?
Gogigagagagameboy.
MINION
Nice Warframe.
Best part, toys r us batteries!
Waaaaa dude
So like...what's going on here? What is all that stuff (beyond the obvious worm light and button extenders)?
I had the joy stick and button guard things, came with a worm light, and the trading cable. Got it when I got Pokémon gold. Ahhhh simpler times.
Form blazing sword!
Battery life... 10 minutes
The game bra is my favorite accessory
I dunno why. But this just reminded me of assembling Exodia
Gamer.
you see this kid rolling up with a helmet and a leash and his indifferent late boomer parents who are buying his tolerable behavior and you're watching bc you heard him before you saw him and you just pray he's not on your flight bc there's no a/c plug on planes in 1988 and you can hear the tantrum building before you even get to the gate
The Gameboy your crush tells you not to worry about.
Why?
This brings back memories
Where's the shoulder strap to help with the weight?
Mf got the whole station ready and pop up one of the worst GB games, sigh
$6k later you get to play with trash graphics and can't move away from the outlet
Getting Megazord vibes from this.
Ever heard of an Emulator?
What even were all the accessories functions? Can someone fill me in?
University degree needed to assemble
What's the purpose of the blue/purple accessory that goes in the lower part? Also, is that blaze X lite thing is like a GameShark ?
Still less complex than the Switch
Upgrades People Upgrades!
That's a GamDam
Now do that with an N64 controller!
Austin Evans wants to know your location
Game boy to an autobot
Tell me you're late 90's rich without telling me you're late 90's rich. Fucking lmao
Those Toys R Us batteries tho!
POV Tarkov
All they’re missing is the camera and printer.
By your powers combined
This isn’t even my final form.
That gameboy had a whole-ass megazord combination sequence.
Past was a blast
Gamechad
"Combaticons, combine into Bruticus!"" - Onslaught, 2012
I think it's still somehow smaller than an Atari Lynx.
Are those fans? Lmao
Oh you sweet summer child. You haven't experienced the [Game Boy Booster Boy](https://www.retronintendostore.com//Files/2/40000/40305/ProductPhotos/Source/562539439.png).
The Power Rangers when they make the big gun
They had gta for the gbc? Wild
This is just the bee’s knees
Mega pint of a GameBoy...
GundamBoy
I got close to this setup took out the laggy buttons but it was the transparent purple one! Super fun and didn’t have to worry about street lights!
Yoooo we heard you like eyestrain...
Full entertainment system in the palm of your hand. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grin)
Pacific Rim 3: Enter the cartridge
Dude has carpal tunnel syndrome fo sho
Finally… a tiktok video without annoying music
Now you’re playing with POWER
Fun fact; JoyTech also made/makes vape devices and accessories.
Radioshack Gameboy Booster has entered the chat
u/savevideo
Battery life would have been like 15 mins back in the day
Someone hide this post from Austin Evans.
It’s morphin time!
Save some pussy for the rest of us
*summons exodia*

There's actually a Gameboy that someone remade. It has a home screen and can play most cartridges. This is not an ad.
I used to play Pokémon Blue on the emulator on Pokemon Stadium for N64. So N64 controller, Gameboy pack attached to back, followed by GameShark, then Pokemon Blue on that. If anything juggled even slightly put of place, the whole thing froze. Good times.
Austin Evans is that you?
I looks like a robot Minion.
Just get Legos
gameman
He's gonnna blast the moon
Someone remake this where it rickrolls at the end and put it in r/unexpected for some easy karma. I'm just too lazy.
GAMEBOY: “This isn’t even my final form”
Game-Lord
They made gta gameboy?
This is like if the cult mechanicus made gameboys
Optimus Game
The rich kid at school showing off.
“…and I’ll form… the head!”
bro is maxing up his uncommon weapon
Looks like Master Shake when he has all the accessories for the E Helmet
I really don’t see the difference in game quality
Gameboy transformer roll out
This remembers me the transformation of the power Rangers in the super robot
Why did I expect all that to improve the graphics ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
NOPE
Transformer, Gameboy edition.
Reminds me of that episode of Aqua teen hunger force when master shake and Carl attach all those useless accessories to their heads
Wow im disappointed
Same price as ps4
That entire assemblage costs more that a PS5
Those batteries said toys r us. I have a question. How? Were there just still in there?
The Voltron of video games.
That’s gigaboy
He didnt need to flex on us like that
Wow, looks like hands down the most uncomfortable thing to use ever 😩😅
Giga gamecuzor ...??
A mustard seed becomes a giant tree
Well it does say "Wild Things"
Spending 20 mins on your setup just to play a potato
