Wooow i must say that’s an interesting project, that gb camera with smaller cartride form looks sooo much better and the new added software on it makes me indeed curious about it’s extra capabilities added to it. This is what the original gbcamera should,ve been😁

Okay that was .... really insane transparent controller + LED white buttons and arrowPads

I have a japanese version of the gameboy camera. Is it possible to just install the custom software to have a usable cam for non japan speakers?

It's cool, but half the fun of the gameboy camera was being able to turn the lens around, taking selfies and messing up my face with stickers, at least for me anyway.

I like the idea, but as others have pointed out, you lose the self portrait option! Easy solution: you should make that little camera able to FLIP out!

Legally acquired *wink Very obvious what that is implying but you do you *wink

I was hoping someone made a modern camera to fit a gameboy, but they just repackaged the original in a smaller size. that's. well.. silly.

Look this is great and all but tech and affordability at the time mean that no, this is not how it could have been from the beginning. lol

no selfie mode is kinda sad to me, i use the gbc to capture meetings and memories

Hey, nice little channel you got here. Subscribed!

So I did this mod, but I cant get it to work. First of all, the N64 should boot without the case, right? I get the red led lighting up and the mod sending a signal to the TV, but its just black. Not sure what to do...

Can you sell these please

Bro do not use the wide angle for mids and close ups

Hah ... I just got the Bambu A1, love it

A tiny mirror on the back like old digital cameras would be the icing on the cake

Okay so I love the video but bro I love the Munich warehouse tee ❤️

such genius... i wish i had this kind of skill...

i just bought an used KV-M1430D. Now im afraid that it will have bad centering as well as your model 😅 it will arrive at the weekend.

I might have missed it but can you buy these premade?

I own the same CRT now. It's just having a beautiful image quality. I love it. I got it as well for free in Germany. Mine is luckily black so it looks still awesome ;)

That's so GOOD!

Very nice! I really enjoyed this :)

Maybe a pop-up camera for selfies? Look up the Facening Scan (フェイスニングスキャン). There’s a second game boy camera, made for GBA. It pops out of the GBA cartridge for selfies. It was used for a “face training” game. Only in Japan.

so cool

Did you make some for sell? I want one 🙏🏻

crazy mod

Very ebic

This is super cool! I always thought the gameboy camera was cool

It would have been nice to let the camera module flip to the display.

I should make Fotos again with my camera. I have an adaptor which I think only works on windows xp for dumping the files. A while back when i used it again i backed up some Fotos from I think 1999. I put a date stamp on it. Was the neighbours cat.

oh dear you said I can do it! but i can’t 😢

I had a yellow GB camera back in the day for my clear (transparent) shell game boy. I was really wanting a modern Nintendo system before getting the Game Boy and couldn’t afford my own snes as I was a small kid, so the game boy was the closest I got for a while, and the game boy camera was one of those far ahead of its time products. It was a digital camera that you had at a time when basically nobody had a digital camera, they simply didn’t exist yet, so you knew that it was a special thing to have digital photos, even if they looked rough. That was the other major thing, the UI for the original GBC was so clunky and handholdy, even as a kid I could tell the UI was holding it back, and it would have been far cooler had they allowed it to just shoot photos and store them for later. That’s all we wanted it for. I mounted my game boy w/ camera on a Lego MindStorms Rover that I had built, and I had an autonomous roving Lego robot that could take photos, but controlling the camera was basically impossible without holding the GB in your hands. It was a super cool idea, and I was really into Star Wars at the time so my true dream/goal was to have a semi-functional droid of my own. I never got there but I’ll always remember the dream and idea that I could do it if I put enough engineering effort into it. Of course now as an adult I see the limitations of the LEGO format for building roving droids.

god damn this is so cool!!

You are German.

Perhaps in the future there could be a way to use off-the-shelf parts instead of slaughtering a working GB camera unit.

man, this feels like it really could have been a real thing!! Amazing work and great passion!

A huge missed opportunity was not installing an as card slot. Also this mod removes the ability of taking selfies like the original camera, so one possible fix would be having the camera just above the cartridge on a 180° swivel

The imaging chip in the GBC was also unusual in that it was the first attempt at integrating a CMOS sensor with a microcontroller. IIRC, some very simple visual processing could be performed in-camera by the imaging sensor itself. These abilities were not used by the GBC as thy were intended for the chip's intended market as a secondary sensor for security systems. Again, it's been over 20 years since I looked into it, but I think the intended use was to wake up a more powerful security camera (and bring the feed from that camera to the attention of the system.) I believe that the two main functions it could do were to note when more than a certain number of pixels changed from one captured frame to the next and perform some kind of outlining function for separating foreground from background. If I am recalling these abilities correctly, the GNC sensor was a very neat chip and surprisingly advanced for the time.

I can't solder, But I want one

Mmh i have one clear controller from snes times and it has a display with programming button kombinations

A Quite interesting idea! it was so pleasure to watch how enthusiasts are creating something interesting. Well done

are you german?

Cool, now do it for the Switch 😂

darn shame you have to dissasemble a working GBCam for this, i was hoping it was a new one since the classic ones are getting a smidge pricy these days

Has anyone gotten Photo! to work on with actual Gameboy Camera hardware? I have an Analogue Pocket

I get the compact form factor but... the selfie feature? I gues a bit of bump and a flip camera will be nice

To say it could’ve been this in 1998 is just untrue.

The PCB comes with a licence that really sucks. If you just dare evocating it in public, the author feels authorized to insult and defame you on internet. Better knowing it before jumping in the project...

As a photographer id rock this 24/7
