My girlfriend is having a birthday party tomorrow, so the first thing i thought was "omg a load of drunk people are gonna trash my gameboys" so i was going to hide them in the spare room but people are staying the night....

then i had an idea to turn the glass table we have, into a gameboy showcase! doesn't hold all the gameboys, but it works for some, and also anyone who sees it might say something like "oh you like gameboys? well i have an old one you can have!"

something like that anyway...

cool thanks! smile

i have a reel of LED ribbon that i have been using to underlight the kitchen, if there is any left i will use it on this, but i think this is tempory, i want all the gameboys in the same place, so this is just while i am working on a bigger display case.

also i am not sure about having them on show all the time, because the grey boys go yellow in the sun

yea i wish i had space for all of them, some of the pockets look great, and the famitsu ones too, some day i will have a proper display for them,

but for now this was just a quick idea, took about half an hour to make, had all the bits lying around so cost nothing either...

You should check out Dutch artist Gijs Gieskes who molded a DMG brick and sold some at Blip Festival 2007!
