in the gameboy zero guide, it says you can draw 5V off the Pi Zero from the pad labeled PP1. (part 3 of the guide is where it illustrates this, to power the screen: http://sudomod.com/game-boy-zero-guide-part-3/)

how can this be done from the raspberry pi 1 B? i'm looking online and wondering if it's safe to draw 5V to power a screen from TP1?

thank you, mrfiou - i forgot i posted this and only now just checked back. i found another way that i thought i'd add here in case anyone else ever comes across this; this is the approach i took and it worked for me:
