Cheers,

Nest step is to laminate it in styrene plastic sheet. This all then gets a coat of matt black. Then I will make up some decals and do the final detail work. This is the bare bones build.

Sweet

Make sure to keep us updated - Looking forward to seeing how this bad boy turns out

I knocked this one out as I await bits for my mini MAME cab.

Gotta scratch that itch.

Are you talking about a HyperSpin build?

I have a challenge, combine a gba and a gamecube. Where you can switch between them, so it looks similar to what you did but much bigger.

I want to kill you and assume your life Pinter.

In a good way of course.

xBLiNG · 18 Feb 2012 at 19:56

Very cool, is it easy to play on?

XPE · 18 Feb 2012 at 20:10

Nice.

Tibbz2 · 18 Feb 2012 at 20:12

Great work!

Damn you pinter, it's like you are the leprechaun at the end of the rainbow with a golden pot of ideas. :<

DJMK4 · 18 Feb 2012 at 20:38

Thats amah zin, are you going to paint it? what colour?

If they ever made a man points company you would be the CEO. Great work as always.

Just playing with some artwork for the side panels.

No doubt this will change, as I hack about.

ng93 · 19 Feb 2012 at 01:29

That looks awesome

ElectroBlaster · 19 Feb 2012 at 13:00

Brilliant idea

Things like this work because you have the right arsenal of tools! I have two gameboy sp's here... ever thought about knocking up cabinets in kit form?

Lunawolfy · 19 Feb 2012 at 13:02

Do want.

contracteur · 19 Feb 2012 at 13:14

How do you actually use it? Considering the size & materials used I imagine it would be pretty difficult to use without it tipping over; or is this just for show?

Is that supposed to say acade rather than arcade? Does the GBA run an emulator or just normal GBA games?

Damnations Fury · 19 Feb 2012 at 14:07

Good work, looks great. Would be cool to have even if I never used it.

StoutMeister · 19 Feb 2012 at 14:52

Very cool!
