Overview
- The playable build arrived less than a day after the Lego 1:1 Game Boy went on sale.
- This is not emulation, as real Game Boy cartridges run on original chips soldered to a bespoke PCB.
- To fit the hardware, the board is smaller than a Game Boy cartridge and uses an ultra-small display after removing a few bricks.
- USB-C provides power, while final button mounting awaits a planned 3D-printed Lego piece with a dedicated PCB.
- Natalie the Nerd says she will release the circuit-board design files once the build is finished and she already sells related modding parts.
