@djlink 10/10, because that's the number of crisp pixels it's displaying

mingistech :mastodon:

@djlink Beautiful! Quick question, are you using an OLED TV as a monitor and if yes what model?

mingistech :mastodon:

@djlink ah, the almost square monitor that got a lot of attention awhile back. Are you running it as your secondary or your main?

David Amador

@mingistech secondary atm, but used it as primary for several months, ill probably shift again soon depending on tasks

sam!!!

@djlink ive wanted to do a gag for ages where i stream a game of smb3 or something only using the famicom microphone for audio and only using a gameboy camera for video, as god intended.

i guess you might beat me to it though 😭

@djlink
A solid 10/10.
How about mine? Not as good looking but a little more space efficient.

@hk How are you streaming the picture of the camera? I’ve got a bunch of them lying around, and I’d love to be able use one as a webcam! Only thing I’ve seen that does it is this thing, which sticks right out of the Gameboy, so I can see you’re not using that! there.oughta.be/a/game-boy-cap

@Jonic

I use a cheap (10€) HDMI to USB video grabber and a HDMI-Output conversion kit for the Gamboy Advance. There are kits for most consoles.

Gameboy Camera -> Gameboy Advance -> HDMI -> USB -> /dev/video0

I also recently saw a post on hackaday that did it with a microcontroller, IIRC. Those are probably just grabbing the raw analog signal from the Camera, though. So no on-screen user Interface.

@hk Nice, thanks for the advice! :)

@djlink Excellent, 0.016 megapixels is more than enough!

@djlink I love this! I’m so into the transparent case too!

David Amador

@BeardyKing I really like it too, I tried to go for the full transparent combo why I got the SuperGB 2 adapter for transparent xD

Kingsley Hopking

@djlink I can’t get out of my mind how cool it would be to resin print a transparent enclosure for the gameboy camera o_o

David Amador

@BeardyKing I wonder if there are any mods for this, gotta search

Nifflas

@djlink that one is so good it can't be quantified by numbers.

Blaze "wertercatt" Marshall

@djlink Needs the printer attached. You have a link cable port for a reason!

DELETED

@djlink I... I think I actually have all the pieces necessary for this? it's an original super gameboy but I don't have the printer anymore anyways. I think I even have an AV capture card somewhere...

anyways what's that sweet console you it all plugged into?

@kvuzet a OG PAL SNES with a custom transparent shell connected to a retrotink for HDMI clean signal on monitor

NeonPlaidPants

@djlink 10/10 crying over the beauty of your translucent shells. Here was our setup for Open Sauce. Love Game Boy Camera 💙

@djlink I will boost anything with a game boy camera in it. That is rad as hell
