Not mine, but I always enjoy seeing these monstrosities.
You can almost hear the batteries draining in mere minutes.
If you think that’s bad, imagine an equivalently-accessorized Game Gear.
26 min running time per battery pack.
This was our screen time limit in the 80s.
Imagine a stock game gear
Ah game gear TV. Battery life meant nothing to you.
I loved that TV tuner cartridge.
Had a pair of NiCad battery packs in the end - folks got sick of buying the ‘good’ alkaline batteries for it. Always had one on boil while the other was draining.
“one on boil” is such a good expression for charging batteries. Stealing that.
…my game gear case carried an automotive-sized external rechargeable battery…
Like a 30lb lead acid?
I could see using like a powerwheels sized 1980s battery. Or a couple of lantern batteries even.
I think one of those attachments are actually for a 12V 70Ah car battery
That Gameboy watch really sells it.
Noticing it only after parsing the rest of the setup made me giggle a little bit.
Noticing it after reading their comment gave me a hearty chuckle
Rockin’ the little watch too, that’s legit.
Pretty sure that’s the biggest watch I’ve seen
Yeah, it’s huge compared to other watches!
“THIS ISN’T EVEN MY FINAL FORM!”
Final Freeza did look like a pair of Airpods, ngl
Imagine the shits you could take with that thing
You’d have maybe 5 minutes before it’d suck the battery dry.
Neither the gamegenie nor the action replay look like the are in use, this is probably why it is not powered on.
Imagine showing up in school with that in the 90s!
Well yeah! My uncle works for Nintendo!
Good game choice, too.
Transformers… Robots in disguise
My gba was like this lol.
Gaming in the 90’s was so glorious.
That’s glorious
I like this
god damn, forgot about this
Could someone explain? Can one do this? What evil spells have to be cast for this to work?
Back then? Money. Now? Lots and lots of money.
Not to mention your parental units had to be on board with the whole idea. They were not. :/
Begging mom to please buy me the gba headphone jack adapter so I can play my games with the sound on in the car without annoying her 😭
