This modder proves that the whole lot is healthier with a GBA SP display hooked up.

Have you ever ever appeared on the Nintendo DS and thought it will be cooler if the highest display was changed with a Recreation Boy Advance SP? Or checked out a Tremendous Nintendo controller and wished it had a GBA SP display screwed onto the again? Whether or not you might have it or not, {hardware} modder Hairo Sato, aka Retrohai hai Softbank, has introduced you some really damned reimaginings of Nintendo’s handheld consoles. (Bear in mind them moveable emulated PlayStation inbuilt Takara Roulette Controller.)

Let’s take a little bit tour of Sato’s Instagram account. Earlier than we get to my favourite mutated Nintendo handhelds—frankentents, if you’ll—know that Sato additionally does some very good customized work on the corporate’s numerous handheld consoles. And so they to order.

This one they not too long ago revealed is an effective instance. We Well-known Stans clear case right here, in Edge, but it surely takes it one step additional with vibrant hologram stickers and color-changing ChromaFlair-style glitter. Oh, and it runs Recreation Boy Advance video games.

That controller mod I discussed above is not the one time Sato has turned a console gamepad into his personal moveable pc. The GBA SP’s display appears nice on a SNES pill (properly, technically a Tremendous Famicom)…

…and on the PS2 Twin Shock controller too.

However why not embrace it within the Nintendo DS Lite? It would not make sense in any respect, even when it is a mash-up of two of probably the most enticing items of {hardware} Nintendo has ever made, however I do not want any justification for this factor to exist. Apart from, that is the purpose the place issues get a little bit cursed.

I take it that is additionally a Nintendo DS?

Once more, however extra colourful.

Oh sure, the unique Recreation Boy Advance SP DS (OGBASPDS).

I am fascinated by the multi-position adjustable display idea of the unique DS.

Give me that and the power to simulate a fantasy vertical scrolling shooter. Ikaruga, Please.

Oh yeah, that is sensible.

I can not say I perceive the additional buttons and the D-pad, however I respect the chaos.

Nintendo Lengthy Boy DS.

I believe that is most likely the ultimate boss of Sato’s ingenious creations.

Sato didn’t reply to us after we contacted him, however we want to know extra about these creations. How a lot do they encompass particular gear inside? What number of of them emulate Nintendo handhelds as an alternative of re-tuning the unique {hardware}? If we get a solution, we’ll dig some extra.
