This homemade Game Boy is a fan dream come true and is easier on the hands
This is what it looks like when you combine the classic original Game Boy with the Game Boy Advance.
If you had an original Game Boy, you might remember the latently tiring hand position you had to adopt to play with the clunky thing. This just got better and better over the years and subsequent iterations. The GBA (Game Boy Advance), for example, was much easier to hold and more comfortable to use. Of course, it only seems obvious to combine the two time-honored devices and simply make a cool, new Game Boy out of them.
Video shows what happens when Game Boy and GBA are combined
The Game Boy is cult. The old part was simply ahead of its time and ingenious – this is also illustrated by the success of the Nintendo Switch. But of course the device wasn’t perfect. Those who played for hours might have felt a pain in their hands thanks to the somewhat cramping handling. This has already been significantly improved with the Game Boy Advance.

Nintendo Game Boy – The gray super block
GBA+Game Boy=Perfection. To get the best of both worlds, the modder, hobbyist and hardware enthusiast simply created a combination of GBA and Game Boy Advance. The whole thing not only looks extremely cool, but should also have been much easier and more comfortable to hold.
How was this done? Basically, the hobbyist only needed two original original Game Boy cases and a few extra parts and of course a lot of instinct. In this video you can see how the very special Game Boy was created:
