It would be cool if you could then hook up a bigger screen, and a nes game port and make portable nes. But then it wouldn't be a Gameboy anymore.

hey nice mod, but have you ever tried connecting the NES controller port from da system to the gameboy and use the NES controller by just connecting it into the bottom or side of the gameboy without the guts sticking out and just having the controller plug in and out if you please. i think you should try it out and see if it works sounds like something i would do just a thought.
