Custom Made Zelda Gameboy Advance SP

post #1 of 12

Thread Starter 
I recently purchased a limited edition 3DS Zelda version which I think looks great. I've been building my collection of older handhelds as well and thought the Gameboy Advance SP could look great with a gold and black colour scheme. So I decided to see what I could do. Here is a quick video of the finished thing. Its just stills I'm afraid, but you should get a pretty good idea. Any thoughts or comments welcome. Thanks very much smile.gif

Custom color way with symbol. Nice. And you preserved the nintendo symbol unlike most ppl. Keep it in mint condition and in the future claim it was an exclusive launch to some idiot for big bucks.

Thanks, yes a few people have said that to me,I even had someone offer me a fair wack for it despite knowing it was custom made. I looks good sitting on the shelf with my other GBAs though, for the moment at least biggrin.gif

That looks freakin awesome. I am just curious on how you made triforce symbol on the front. Just found my nes this winter while cleaning out the basement, and i never beat the The Legend of Zelda and Zelda II and started playing those again. I am going to try to beat the whole series this year. probably going to buy some NES prototype reproduction cartridges and the homebrew game Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril and with Battle Kid 2: Mountain of Torment just around the corner.

Thanks very much, the Hyrulian crest on the top of the Gameboy and the triforce symbol that's on the inside next to start and select buttons are both vinyl transfers. You can get them off ebay for a few bucks.
