Chris Downing, a modder who is also a youtuber incidentally, recently showed the world his latest work: the Tiger Boy Advance, which we can define as a Game Boy Advance tucked into a Tiger Electronics Handheld System.
"A Tiger that doesn't suck" commented the modder, who then technically explained his work: basically he placed a Game Boy Advance inside a Tiger unit, modifying a bit the hardware to adapt it. In theory it should have been a very simple project, but it turned out to be more complicated than expected, especially in the 3D printing part.
Above is the video of the Tiger Boy Advance explained by Downing himself, below is a picture of the same:
The Tiger Boy Advance in all its glory The final version is slightly larger than the one in the photo and is fully functional. It can be recharged via a USB-C connection and offers an IPS screen.
Also, just like the Game Boy Advance it can run all Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. Not bad, especially for fans of the old handheld console and the Tigers.
Have you noticed any errors?
