NeX is going above and beyond the immediate call for this scene. It was only a matter of time before someone who is great at what they do decides to investigate replicating huge components. It shows with stuff like nitro's Game Fighter teardown, and Kitsch's collection of various back PCB's for research.
No one said NeX was working on it, but then again, no one said it wasn't happening at all.įor a while the people at the top of the modding community have known what all makes the Gameboy tick. You don't need a special source or to be in an email chain, you just need to read in the scene. + the thread on 'what will happen to chip music if all the Gameboys are gone/dead/owned/modded?' + + all the interest in custom Arduinoboy boards (both internal and external). If anyone wants to know how this project could start under the public's nose, it's not too difficult to connect the dots. Tl dr The cat is out of the freaking bag, guys.
