Gameboy Nano - Portable Raspberry Pi Gameboy

[@HydraHead9]

Incredible to think that this is technically more powerful than a 3DS console

[@Evtrex13]

+HydraHead9 Not more powerful, but more versatile at least.

[@HydraHead9]

+Ever Trejo erm.. 3DS has a 266mhz Dual core CPU and 64mb of ram. PI Zero has 1ghz CPU and 512mb of ram, so it is way more powerful.

[@Evtrex13]

Yeah the same happens with Apple and Android. Android is way better on specs, but Iphones score better at benchmarks. And at everyday applications they perform smoothly(Because they have their own API's). So Iphones don't need more than 2 GB of RAM. And is the same for the 3DS and this custom made Gameboy.

[@HydraHead9]

+Tom Golden Exactly my point. In this scenario, 3DS games would be much better optimized on a 3DS (like your example with Apple), yet the Pi Zero is more powerful (like android). The Pi Zero is still more powerful 'technically' but the 3DS may run games better due to superior optimization.

[@adzeevaarders784]

Do note that if you're going to talk about either one being more powerful, you should also consider the GPU's of both devices and how those relate to power consumption. It really all depends on how you define something being "powerful". But technically speaking, you're right.

[@LinkinJoze]

looks totally uncomfortable but it's a nice concept.

[@zdanee]

My inner child is now throwing a tantrum to my adult self to build this for him.

[@kellangaming1108]

Lol

[@jordiarmora4437]

well, do it

[@johnlopez5531]

"The creative mind is the child that survived."

[@evorm7329]

is it VR ready

[@Tuschi17]

If you put on glasses it's like you're in the same room with the gameboy. Really impressive technology.

[@pray__careforhumanity.2357]

+Tuschi dafuq. haha

[@theREELdogman]

you can sell it at chinese and thai pawn shops if thats vr read to you?

[@beelzebumb]

vive is better scrublord

[@TarisRedwing]

All current VR headsets are subpar and suck, Tape a 4k monitor to your face scrub

[@deltafox399j]

im am asian and i have HUGE trouble pleasing my woman. thanks to this, she can finally play with something small and have fun aswell.

[@aahhhwheres4802]

The fuck man ?!! it's kinda offensive for some people you know ? why spread the hate ? duh

[@themariomedic8753]

+aahhhw heres Oh shut the hell up. People take everything too seriously now.

[@aahhhwheres4802]

people always tend to see something lightly when it comes to a conversation about ethnics, but believe me son in a wider society than your neighbor, manner and etiquette will always be your only friend to blend in any kind of social life, better learn than regret later, after all, what's the difficult to be a kind person ?

[@locosss4210]

you're fucking awesome

[@lespaulranger]

Fuck you

[@aguy7848]

This would be the most badass keychain ever.

[@robertocastillo4107]

I actually wouldn't really put it on a key :/

[@H32-u7d]

+Ross Geller i agree!!!

[@marionotesdraws2764]

[@DowningsBasement]

Impressive work man. The concept is there, the practicality isn't, but hell, what does that matter anyway? hehe. Very nice work!

[@ColdFuse96]

It literally looks like BMO

[@Dylanw857]

As opposed to figuratively looking like BMO?

[@fyalon3275]

Yup

[@rolopolo7975]

yeah it does :D

[@kindoffunnybutnotreally2240]

YO I DOESSS xD

[@manofleipe]

You mean BMO was designed to look like a Gameboy?? MIND BLOWN

[@thegreatgambino]

people build amazing things. So crazy you can have this in such a small form.

[@thema1998]

It took me two years but I finally watched the video. Nice work! 👍 If I had more than two friends (that are busy with college), then I would want to build one of these with them.

[@afterglow-podcast]

That's really cool, looks like a dreamcast vmu.

[@GetTurtled]

How cool!! This could be a gameboy key chain xD

[@mikeknowles2616]

I agree this would be perfect as gameboy key chain but i wonder is it Waterproof or resistant

[@iamnobody8]

Nice key chain for 250 bux

[@NTheHedgehog]

That looks awkward to control considering how tiny it is.

[@killbot23]

yah,but still cool.

[@Bryan_Kay]

its a concept design more than a functional design

[@FunkSoulBrother7]

This is not a device this is craftsmanship

[@mrkiky]

+KamenGamerRetro Tell that to any iPhone ever who sacrifices functionality for the sole reason of making people pay more. Or to a lot of other popular devices like Galaxy S7 edge which doesn't have any way of being held without accidentally triggering the screen.

[@splash2849]

AWMartin lol

[@dstayton]

I wish I had the money for something like this. The fact it looks well polished makes this a quality item. I also saw no lag in the demo, which makes it even better. I just wish I had the cash on hand to do something like this.

[@vagrantramblingsthroughthe8809]

This is one of the best builds I have ever seen. I love it.

[@rasmushauschild]

Thank you very much! :)

[@Bryan_Kay]

Good luck with your production, nice design.

[@fanter0x]

what is this? a Gameboy for ants?

[@BalancedSpirit79]

LOL

[@johnsquarez6806]

Paul Rudd would be happy

[@rossv2347]

incredible I think 250 isn't bad especially when considering the versatility of this masterpiece . I just don't have 250 right now but when I do its straight to you .

[@machiclover5145]

+ProCreeper 2000 i cant tell if this a joke or not anymore lol

[@Gaveno112]

+ProCreeper 2000 And how much of that $250 would actually get to the families that need it and not the warlords that are destroying their lives? Seems to me you have either a computer or a internet capable cell phone? Why didn't you feed Africa with that money instead?

[@GerbenvanDijk00000]

+Gavin Atkin rekt.

[@seanocansey2956]

+ProCreeper 2000 give them $250 then.....

[@laing4045]

+Ross v Why would you even waste money on this junk? why not just buy a gameboy advance sp from amazon with a flash cart, you could probably even get it cheaper than 250, it's far from a masterpiece

[@NuevoVR]

Damn the programming seems pretty simple just load an emu on startup but the hardware engineering is top notch you earned a like

[@mrcharliekane]

looks really fun to hold and not at all uncomfortable well done

[@dynamichunter843]

what is this, a gameboy for ants?

[@rasmushauschild]

+DynamicHunter No, it's for humans - sorry.

[@dynamichunter843]

lmao it was a reference to Zoolander

[@BradenBest]

+DynamicHunter I don't wanna hear your excuses! The gameboy has to be at least...three times bigger than this.

[@rasmushauschild]

+Braden Best www.thingiverse.com/thing:939901

[@BradenBest]

Rasmus Hauschild Realtalk though, it's a neat project. Props.

[@Llink4n]

Nice work mate! Audio should be supported on a next version?

[@rasmushauschild]

Thanks! A new video is going up in a couple of days :)

[@leberkassemmel]

You could get Audio from the Pi with PWM on 2 GPIO Pins.

[@RespectTheHood]

yep

[@Sojiny]

perfect for school!

[@lulu2dani]

This is the coolest thing I have seen in a long time.

[@eckitronix]

GEEZ! Talk about portable! Amazing job with one of my favorite comouters!

[@mynegaims]

And here I was thinking of MAYBE buying one, but $250 is way overkill for something like this. I can buy a 3ds and play all of them games (besides sony ofc) or even an xbox1 with 250 bucks

[@pyb6]

ikr it looks like its worth 20 dollars

[@mynegaims]

***** Even all the more reason then.

[@blankname3816]

Or use an emulator and play them all for free

[@SonOfTheHenry]

you can play n64 on the 3ds?

[@personalaccount4360]

Yeah, the whole point of it being so tiny and made of cheap material is that it's cheap as hell. It's only really playable if you hook it up to your own tv and your own USB controller as well. Anything more than 25 bucks is too much. I get that it's just him buying these components and assembling them and that makes it more expensive, but at 250 dollars, it simply is not worth the money. It's very cool though.

[@RoguePlanetStudio]

I'm just surprised it does 3d rendering.

[@insanen3rd212]

John Maksym ikr

[@landonbobbett2301]

Wait... aren’t you supposed to be on copper cube videos?

[@Jackpkmn]

Hmm it seems like projects like this may be getting too small to be comfortably/practically used. Perhaps a more smartphone esque approach of using a 5 roughly inch diagonal housing and focusing on thickness might work better for usability.

[@rasmushauschild]

+Jackpkmn I made this one a while ago: www.thingiverse.com/thing:939901

[@SirRJay]

I love your voice. The computer text reading voice.

[@jgems8796]

Very nice project! Amazing you prove this works and it is the future. This with solar panel dongle. If you got a pack of lithium batteries and solar with converter for 220v beside of your machine, you got everything in one small device ....it is possible now :) )))Great thank you for your contributions

[@20cnVision]

It's really awesome such a small device can do all of this. But it's not worth to buy. Yeah, it's really awesome, but nothing I would like to play games with.

[@swagmaster4771]

This thing is amazing I am already starting to save up to get one thank you so much for the option to buy this amazing product so that nubes like me don't have to do it

[@rasmushauschild]

Thanks a lot :D

[@pandasroc9992]

just get a real one. Used its only like $40 - $70.

[@freestyling7603]

+Rasmus Hauschild could I do layaway plus could I buy the parts my self and ship it where you you so I can save 30 I use Amazon free shipping could I do that

[@Gigidag77]

This surely is a cool thing, but gaming with such tiny buttons wouldn't be that comfortable.

[@LordVikingBeard]

yeah but imagine having that on your key chain, have a quick 20 minute blast on a classic while waiting/pooping haha

[@emeraldtf8982]

+Gigidag77 ive seen you somewhere on the internet before

[@emeraldtf8982]

Miguel Herrera sorry but that didn't make sense. 😕

[@n8ivegogo1]

Time jump to 2024 & we got Anbernic out here making BIG Retro moves‼️ I remember watching this back in the day & my mind was blown 🤯 Now I see this & im like “yea… that’s cool I guess” 😂

[@matheustoledo948]

man u really have the talent for this

[@wirfen6508]

No sound??

[@s7121n9s]

he doesnt have speakers in the handheld itself. but the sound will work when hooked up to a tv

[@s7121n9s]

***** you would have to install one if possible

[@aidanmco]

+Doomz1337 Not on the pi zero

[@hambubger2185]

No headphone jack but it has a lightning connector

[@humacunra]

Would you like WIfi with it as well? Or maybe PS4 graphics? >.>

[@Soohable]

$250? Better buy a 3ds.

[@victoralmanzar1273]

Or save it up and put it towards a NX.

[@DiegoAlvarez-jx7pj]

U don't like 3ds?

[@TwistedFireX]

I bought a 3DS XL just before the NX was announced. ;~;

[@DiegoAlvarez-jx7pj]

Still Saving u.u

[@victoralmanzar1273]

Alexander Arellano Nothing wrong with the 3DS, I love mine. But if I got $250 right now I 'm putting that towards the NX.

[@CallMeLethano]

Holy shit that is SO adorable. I need it.

[@RetroBoysGaming]

Very cool I really like you did the multi color SuperFamicom buttons - nice little touch.

[@AndyonSet]

props for getting it that small, but since its that small it looks too difficult to play

[@mtndew1771]

It's cool that it's small and all that, but isn't it a little too small to be practical?

[@nagualmaxcough]

omg dude that is so fucking awesome. incredible as hell.

[@rasmushauschild]

Thanks :)

[@Cheatster9000x]

It kinda looks like BMO.

[@rjfrancis765]

Amazing! I never believed something like this could be made!

[@rasmushauschild]

[@grizzly9960]

lol

[@zetakon]

it's unfortunate the quality of the console looks lackluster, buttons are lopsided and don't look very smooth, aswell as the fact that it doesn't have enough buttons to support many of the games "compatible" with the system.

[@rasmushauschild]

Anything positive about it?

[@zetakon]

i mean the system and the concept looks great, but for $250 it's hard not to be critical of it when most of the games that would be desired would be kinda unuseable, this is just me, maybe other people would be using it for different things. But for me the main thing is the lack of required buttons, the concept is certainly fantastic, but the execution needs some smoothing out. the main reason i'm so critical is cuz it's disappointing because it is such a great idea/concept but held back bye things that seem like would be obvious or easily fixed for someone who specializes in this type of thing.

[@zetakon]

imagine a gorgeous girl who would be absolutely down for any and everything but has a permanent std, so close, yet so far kind of thing lol.

[@rasmushauschild]

+heyseus chang the quality of the surface of the console is as clean as home 3D printing allows it to be. I am working together with Dagoma.fr to make a kit of it, and with rose colored gaming to make a finished product. But thank you for giving me a little bit of positive feedback, it helps a lot :)

[@HydraHead9]

+heyseus chang I don't think you can get an accurate representation of material quality from a video. And after all, this his 'newest Raspberry PI portable' so likely the first prototype of this portable.

[@j.crandom2077]

this is amazing but wish it was a bit bigger lol ill go cross eye on that display

[@rasmushauschild]

LOL, I made this a while back :) www.thingiverse.com/thing:939901

[@j.crandom2077]

sir that was beautiful llol do you have lipo battery to power that system ?

[@rasmushauschild]

Sure, it's 7500mAh :)

[@j.crandom2077]

great work wish to build some similar down the line

[@jpuc5568]

do you still make these?

[@ButterduckAyyds]

This is amazing I’m so sad it’s no longer available for purchase, I’d prefer this compared to the larger model

This is completely EPIC! EXOLLENT EXOLLENT job my friend

[@MilesKay11]

This is a really neat device, especially considering how much youre cramming into a tiny package. However, it honestly looks too small for most people. That, with a limited control scheme, will definitely limit enjoyment of 32-bit and 64-bit games. Really neat little box though.

[@TechnologistAtWork]

but why? who in their right mind would use this to play a full game?

its too big

[@AsagiGaming]

Pretty good concept especially if you don't want to carry a laptop or console for classic gaming. The problem has been the price with that I might as well hack my phone to play Emulators at this rate.

can you watch porn on it?

[@cloroxbleach1812]

PERFECT FOR SOMEONE WITH BIG HANDS that thing really is small though, i could take my DS but i wouldnt have an SNES or other game consoles on it. so i like it even though i dont have it

[@cloroxbleach1812]

btw the first thing was sarcasm (with the Perfect for someone with big hands)

[@greenaum]

You know somebody's written a software driver to do sound through one of the GPIOs, modulating it with PWM. I think you get something like 6-bit audio at 40KHz. Would be worth adding that. For the mostly square waves that consoles output, it wouldn't sound too bad.

[@CatSkinCap]

That is really awesome, but I think playing on this could really strain your eyes

[@sonicspeed6435]

hard to believe a tiny little thing can play all those high quality games there has to be a catch towards it like converting.

[@Matt-bh3gb]

The weird lines on the screen are because of the OLED screen's refresh rate lining up with the camera speed

[@funcatvids9198]

+Rasmus Hauschild, why don't you put this project on kickstarter? You could actually make some money, and, due to the larger number of orders, you could have better deals for all the components (reducing the overall costs and/or having more margin).

[@soulfreee08]

i wish the design is more better than than coz if u are playing a multi system emu you should atleast have a size thats fit on hand and buttons that could be comfortable to play in any system like R2 and L2

[@Cookie-rm4bc]

[@gaminglab7703]

My only issue is the framerate for some of the games. I completely understand -why- there's framerate, especially with the N64 games. Still though, it's a bit of a problem for obvious reasons. Awesome job though! It looks really cool and I like how diverse the library is.

[@Potato22]
