And just to add to your post and show people what I've been up to:

NES Style Arduino Boy:
* MIDI in/out
* powered via DMG link cable
* white status/mode LEDs
* all buttons maintain their original tactile feeling
* 'A' button acts as mode switch
* 7 modes
* link port for syncing additional Game Boy


That is the sickest thing ever...does this mean I'm going to have to camp out on kitschbent forever?

Thanks! That would be your best bet. I think he's puttin one up tonight. But he will likely put out a mailer when they're up.

Well, they're kind of limited. I make them in between commissions and I will likely be selling them exclusively on kitsch-bent.com or in person at events. I do take customs orders as a commission but that would be put in like with all the others and take about 4 weeks.

But to really answer your question... My Arduino Boys will likely always be housed in NES cases. I may switch to generic NES controllers so I'm not hacking originals as much. But I plan to make these as much as I can and for as long as they are selling well. The first one I put put on kitsch-bent.com sold in 4 minutes I think.. So in that way they are very limited!

I've got 5 pre-built grey DMGs with backlight and 1/8" prosound for sale for $80. The DMG with a green backlight has a 1/4" prosound for $90. If you want a different prosound just send me an email at [email protected]

I also have 5 Game Boy Pockets with backlights ready to go for $90 with 1/8" or internal prosound.
Green case/green backlight.
Yellow case/teal backlight.
Black case/purple backlight.
Red case/red backlight.
Blue case/orange backlight.

Pics of these soon.

Send me a PM if you'd like to sell the two DMGs to me!

Very thorough! Seems like a good quick fix. I actually like the idea of the wheels being harder to turn. My volume pots are almost always all the down since I prosound mine pre-pot.

But why not just buy a new volume or contrast wheel? They're pretty cheap. You can get tem right at Radio Shack. Or you can just drip a few drops of rubbing alcohol under the wheel, turn the wheel back and forth for about a minute and let it dry. Good as new after this.

That's what I was guessing but there's always the chance you're a wizard...

The lighting and camera doesn't do a great job at getting the color right, but I assure you the c64 brown color is pretty close in person.

But anywho. I give you the c64boy. it has internal teensy midi sync, thursday's rgb start/select buttons, asm's prosound, thursdays variable clock v4, 4LED Sapphire backlight, half clock crystal mod.








Beautiful and brilliant! Don't tell me you're actually running some sort of c64 program on it.. I would be so confused and interested if it so.

You could also try powered headphones(ones that take batteries). A lot of them cut out noise pretty well. Or I bet you could open the Micro up, try to find a place to install a capacitor to cut some of the noise down. I doubt there is any room for that though!

Just for fun, it would be cool if you could engrave NINTENDO Game Boy where it usually would be.

Or even your artist name or something. I would be interested in seeing how that turns out. Would be cool to get that on my 3 boys.

Two new kits on the shop!

DMG Audio:

http://thursdaycustoms.bigcartel.com/product/dmg-audio

This is a replacement board for the Original Game Boy(DMG) headphone jack.
With all new components this is a perfect way to replace the old worn out capacitors and save space for other mods.

Hex Switch v2:

http://thursdaycustoms.bigcartel.com/pr … -switch-v2

The newest version of the Hex Switch!
While this kit is a little bit bigger(only 3/8" x 3/8") than the original Hex Switch, the installation has been drastically simplified.
You now only need an on/off switch with two wires to change the polarization of the LCD. Hex Switch v1 requires 6 wires just for the switch.
