After the Arcade Machine DIY Guide today we have a very special tutorial for the readers on OCinside.de! We show step by step how to build a Retro Gaming Handheld from a 30 year old Game Boy using Raspberry Pi Zero. You can play your favorite games from the beginning of the console age to the last millennium on a single Retro Gaming Handheld in color. Unlike the original Game Boy, this even works in the dark without any additional lighting. How the conversion works and what you should keep in mind is shown in detail in the following instructions from the Nintendo Gameboy to the Gaming Handheld!
