This device may look like a classic Game Boy, but it's actually powered by a Raspberry Pi Zero.
YouTuber wermy placed a Raspberry Pie Zero inside an original Game Boy, adding a 3.5 inch composite display, buttons from a NES controller, an external USB port for a keyboard or mouse, a micro-USB port for charging and a mini HDMI for attaching the device to a TV.
Though he says he "hasn't measured it yet", wermy suggests the battery life of the device would be "around 3.5 hours". One Reddit user described the hack as "the most complicated, finely built and well designed" project of its kind.
The device is able to successfully emulate games for Game Boy, SNES and NES, and a number of carefully drilled holes that allow him to closely replicate the experience of playing on an original device.
Other Game Boy mods have let devices perform different functions. A Texas design agency modified the classic Game Boy model to feature an analogue filter letting users amend the music, and one slightly less interactive project rebuilt a Game Boy in paper.
Raspberry Pis have also been used for a wide variety of projects – including a robot that draws pictures and a 'steam powered' Pi. Astronaut Tim Peake has even run games designed by children on his Raspberry Pi in space.
If you want to have a go at making your own Raspberry Pi-powered Game Boy, detailed instructions have been uploaded to Imgur.
