PicoPal Game Boy Color Handheld Mod Console
Gamers who remember sliding cartridges into their old Game Boy Color will feel right at home when they pick up the PicoPal. Its clear plastic shell displays all of the internal components while maintaining the classic shape and button layout of old. The small LEDs illuminate the directional pad and action buttons with customizable brightness, making them ideal for late-night gaming sessions when all you want to do is keep playing. And a 2.6-inch screen front and center displays lovely crisp colors on games that used to seem tiny on vintage Game Boys.

Sebastian Staacks, a physicist and maker of interesting tech, has turned a retro relic into a wedding photo booth. His Game Boy Camera photo booth is a lo-fi delight for his cousin’s wedding. He’s built five photo booths for family events, including his own. For this one, he tapped into his cousin’s love of vintage gaming and chose the 1998 Game Boy Camera as the star. This DIY favorite features a 0.014-megapixel monochrome sensor that produces 128×112-pixel images.
