Anti-Portable

Post by rawls »

Ok, we all want to build our video game systems smaller, lighter, etc. Well, these guys took the opposite route, they made a gigantic gameboy (called the gameman). At three feet tall and around 100 lbs, it is a prime example of how to de-portabalize a portable. I especially like the giant game cartridges they made.

That has to be the most ridiculous thing I've seen in a long time.

Basically it's an emulation PC with a hacked-up flat screen monitor and a keyboard encoder. Still pretty cool. With a little modification the case would make the first completely self-contained Xbox portable! XD :lol:

This is pretty awesome to say the least, although itd be cool if they used a real gameboy, or a gameboy advance that was modded to work with a computer LCD.
