i actually want to get one, and mod it to house excess gameboy parts i have laying around. so that it accepts gameboy cartridges, like a traditional nes. insert the cart, press down, and power on.

That is a neat idea.

@chiz is right about it being an expensive shell, but boy am I still interested in it. It's just soooo purty.
