Look what just popped up in ebay... I love those little details like the red button. I'd bid for it if I liked pokemon.

So, custom consoles thread? custom consoles thread.

Post pics or links. Bonus points for things you've made.

Sometimes I think about doing something with one of my 3 Super Nintendos, but I don't know what.

I'd like to do this sort of stuff, but I wouldn't want to deface my things

It'd be cool to know how to make custom cases though

Because superior Game Boy.

If you put the tech of the GBC in the frame of the GBP, I think it would be perfect. It's such a gorgeous design.

This. Idk why they didn't do that, the gb pocket is by far the best one.

That's really cute. I'm digging the green light.

I'm purchasing some shells for my GBA SP's. They're scratched as hell and the colors I'm getting are pretty nice.

If I wanted to do custom artwork on the case of a console, what would be non-destructive way to go about it while still having it look nice?

Fan Grill. The friend who I made this for was going to put it in a small shelf, so I didn't want it to heat up too much or melt solder.

Currently got a plan to get a GBA SP and paint it with original Gameboy colors. Maybe replace those sharp-ass A and B buttons and D-pad with GBC buttons, but not sure if those will fit properly. Those NES-colored SPs sell pretty high but I always thought original Gameboy colors would be cooler, even if less extravagant.
Thoughts?
