@yomoeder hey yomoeder, you have pokemon red/blue? you should know this, i have pokemon silver and gold, are those rare or a little rare cuz... idk...
This is an awesome gameboy. My only real complaint is that the gears on the front look odd. Not really, bad.. they just look like they lack purpose. Rather than just sticking gears on, you should have considered WHY the gears are there, and maybe made it look like they were there for something rather than just randomly added. Again, I like the gameboy, I don't mean it's bad. I think it's awesome. Just that the gears on the front look..oddly placed.
Hm I like it but it couldve been better if the gears are plastic you could of cut open the case and created a pocket watch looking gear assembly in the gameboy case also maybe even adding a pocket watch cover to the screen would of added to its steampunk-nes. Though i wouldve you could mod the A and B buttons to to have typewrite buttons on em. hmmm
Honestly, it's a pretty poor job. It doesn't look natural at all, just a bunch of pipes/gears stuck on the standard gameboy casing and sprayed bronze.
@EnigmatikoProds Yes. It is. The pipes/gears/springs etc. do not provide any illusion of being a part of the gameboy, they're simply stuck on, more than that they look like they'd get in the way. Naturality is super important for what this guy has tried to pull off, the idea is to appear as a steampowered gameboy by design, not a gameboy with steampunky bits haphazardly attatched to it's front. It all looks incredibly incohesive.
Luv the sound, you are quite the composer. You have to know that this will be the new pop sound. Very big in Japan. If you mix it with other components, you can be the pioneer. Thanks.
"WHITE BOY". Anyways,, badass!

Maybe the title means that this is a "steampunk" Game Boy, not natural, full of pipes/gears stuck on the standart casing and sprayed bronze.

@mattresssurveyor it looks to me like someone found all the parts to a broken gameboy, and then kludged it together. kludges shouldn't be pretty
