It's clearly just a regular gameboy modded for coaxial output.

[Anonymous No.2709152]

can't find info for DIY, anyone ?

probably not much interest since all the games can be emulated perfectly on a tv for much cheaper.

I own a nice amount of originals but im getting old, my eyes.. I would like to get a kiosk but $4000 ???? Super Gameboy & Gameboy player sucks IMO

[Anonymous No.2709950]

I would kill a man to own one of these but then I would almost never use it except to show off to friends

how is a super gameboy worse? it's literally just a gameboy in a snes. it costs 20 dollars anywhere i've looked. and provides different filters for dem ol' eye balls. like clean b&w.

You gotta check out emulation. I know I'll get some arguments but it's super cheap and only a genuine robot can tell the difference in gameplay on a system this old. They've been developing great emulators for it for years now. Use a desktop, laptop, or a $35 retropie. Whichever you choose you won't be disappointed by the gameplay using an emulator.

More like custom super gameboy, but yes. You can totally get results like your pic by fiddling with the SGB, down to the border text.

This, most games emulate 100% perfect or just shy of it.

Also, what's with your eyes OP?

Nigger, have you heard of GBL-UUL? Gameboy Loader Ultra Low Latency? It's an emulator that uses your GBP hardware and physical games, and it performs without stutter 100% of the time.

[Anonymous No.2710278]

The gba is lower than 240p

He probably just meant without interlacing.

what's wrong with the SGB?

I'm aware it runs at a slightly faster speed than a normal gameboy, but wouldn't that be actually something good? it's like an overclocked gameboy.

I played most of my GB games on the SGB when I was a kid, great stuff.

Italians are always going on about the gabaguul, aren't they? Go talk to one of them.

How many fps do you lose when you blink. There's no actual functional difference from the perspective of the player.

I'm sure I have a larger collection than you boxed in my closet. I emulate because it's less messy. Sorry for being lazy instead of poor.

connecting some wires to something and a few electrical components cost next to nothing.

dedicated display plus a cabinet... Not much but the bits and pieces do add up if you don't have them laying around collecting dust.

Sorry, GBI, not GBL.

It's gamecube homebrew.

I know right. I was just trying to be helpful. I guess I don't have the street cred around here. All I know is gameboy games look better on my tv and I personally find them more enjoyable to play that way. I can understand the gripes with emulating on some of the later consoles but something like game boy has been well sorted out for years.

SGB doesn't run the same speed though SGB2 fixes that issue.

[Anonymous No.2710480]

>>2710465

Just to clarify your post, SGB runs at a slightly FASTER speed. I don't think it's a big issue. If it was slower then yeah.

I think I played a machine exactly like this in FAO Schwartz in Chicago in the summer of 94

I played Donkey Kong on it, and later asked for it for my 10th birthday that august

I played it constantly that fall, and beat the game on new years eve, while riding in the back of the car on the way to my grandparents in the U.P. of michigan

We're talking at a speed thats basically unnoticable. A super gameboy is still using gameboy hardware.

I've only played Pokémon Gold on it and while I did not notice any speeding gameplay wise, not that it's a fast-paced game anyways, I did notice speeding in the music.

Seconding this

[Anonymous No.2710636]

It's a Game Boy with a video out mod. It gets combined with a border simulating the Game Boy's screen, filling out the 224p or 240p display.
Everything is output in monochrome and the display has a sheet of translucent, green plastic to simulate that disgusting screen.

Most games emulate either perfectly or near perfectly.

Is this from the setup you mentioned? I'm a DS lite and flash cart guy but I have to admit this is fucking beautiful. Suppose I'll end up there one day when all the DSes crap out.

that or just the the super gba for the gamecube.
