The GameBoy PC case mod

gameconsolepc.jpg

This PC case mod isn’t exactly artful — it’s just a fully functional EPIA PX10000G sloppily crammed into a gutted first-gen GameBoy, after all — but it’s still amazing to me that the brick-like hunk of plastic that could barely run Super Mario Land in 1989 can now be used to run Quake 3. Install a working display over that fan vent and I’ll really be impressed.

    I was wondering what he was “playing”. Then I read the text, and found out he’s playing the fan.

    If I’m not wrong this Gameboy mod is the same one posted last year by ascii.jp made with a Pico – ITX motherboard.
