Not mine, but I always enjoy seeing these monstrosities.
This is the ideal Gameboy body. You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like (just be sure to have all the batteries nearby).
I actually got that kit from a friend as a kid, I used it all the time when playing at home, the fake analog was legit, and I think there’s a light on the magnifier too.
All this and no Nyko shock and rock?
I tried to find a photo of this janky Game Gear peripheral I had, but came across this angelfire website instead: https://www.angelfire.com/games4/icecoldatari/Gamegear.html
I feel like this website may actually be from the 90s… It’s literally just a person talking about the cool shit they have for their Game Gear, and the only email address is @aol.com. Made me very nostalgic.
Cool watch.
You have a GameShark plugged into a game genie? The hells the point of that.

Filthy casual.
You’ve never sharked a genie? What a prude!
Where’s the camera?
This is what many Steam Deck users seem to pursue.
Can confirm. So far I’ve gotten an external monitor, keyboard, mouse, docking station and a stand for it so it can be used as a laptop as well while traveling.
It certainly has issues but it’s an impressive device.
This is like the Thanos glove with the stones (can’t remember the actual names) but for Nintendo in the 80s and 90s. The only thing missing is a power glove which it’s all mounted on, and an NES Zapper somehow integrated into it all.

“So I have this ultra portable gaming device…”
How many minutes do the batteries last?
I had the GameBoy Color version of the magnifying glass/speaker/fake joystick combo. It ran the speakers and the light off of its own pair of batteries. The speakers were an upgrade (especially for the stereo sound) but everything else was a gimmick. The incandescent bulb was too dim and housing around the screen made it darker and even more difficult to see:
Later on in early 2000s we got the worm light. LED and was powered from the link cable port. It was considerably brighter and hardly affected battery life from what I remember:
We also eventually got magnifying glasses that didn’t have the housing around the screen to darken it:
I miss the worm lights. My cousin had one, and even though I had the Advance SP, I thought the worm LED was super neat.
Those worm lights were the first time I ever saw an LED. It was crazy to me that it was so bright it was blue.
