Game Boy Camera, meet pocket camera.

This prototype is a fully functional Game Boy Pocket, with a removable Game Boy Camera module and interchangeable CS-mount lenses! It’s from 8-bit photog Crissa Graves, who previously made a Game Boy Camera that fully fits inside a cartridge. “You can still play Tetris and Pokemon one-handed,” she tells me — but no speaker.

<em>USB-C charging — and still has link port access for a Game Boy Printer!</em> <em>1800mAh battery for hours of photos.</em>
“<em>CS Mount lens, but I’ll likely share the design files so makers can customize it for whatever lens they’d like.</em>“
<em>“By the time I’m done, it should be 109 x 61.8 x 23.5 mm (18.5mm at the thinnest part). For reference, Ricoh GR III is 109 x 62 x 33mm, which was the size aim.“</em>
<em>“The smallest Game Boy Camera cartridge ever!</em>“
<em>“4 completely custom circuit boards: the main CPU, the shutter & power button board, a flexible PCB board to connect the screen to the CPU, and the cartridge.</em>”
