Arduinoboy in a soap dispenser (gameboy midi interface)

a customer of mine asked for a pre assembled Arduinoboy, which is not uncommon, but they requested that it be something different. so this is an Arduinoboy built into an old soap dispenser, the plunger is the mode switch.

it was very difficult to build, i had to work out how to wire it so that i could still assemble it inside the bottle, it was a bit like fitting a ship in a bottle. the LEDs for example had to be hot glued and then quickly but carefully pushed inside and pressed into place using a wooden stick. also when looking at the bottle straight on there is a green LSDJ sticker which looks like part of the label from the right angle.

it also supports both DMG and smaller gameboys without external power. it also gives all your music the smell of apples.

@AwesomeOpossum4 haha thanks! the midi converter is actually really easy to build, i was worried when i made my first one, and it didn't work, but after that i have made all kinds of things with them, both with custom hardware and software so its pretty simple to work with. worth having a go anyway

"they requested that it be something different"

This is so genius!! C:

I am not smart enough to build a midi converter, especially not one built into a soap dispenser.

Oh how I idolize you!!
