"Using a Wii remote as the Bluetooth interface, and a Dot Matrix Gameboy's butttons and shell (two things I already owned) I figured "why not mash them together and give them a whole new purpose?". With the use of the "Wii Controller IME" App on the Play App store, this retro controller will really control anything which lets you use the android touch keyboard as input. Although i've only tried with a SNES emulator, in theory you should be able to play and do all kinds of things with the Gameboy's buttons. The project is essentially a gutted Game Boy with a Wii remote inside. The tricky part was rerouting the button connections between the two."
HAH!

As a long time fan of the gameboy, using a shell to pull this off is pretty slick. kinda ugly, but very functional. needs to paint the case black.
NICE.

Wow, that is pretty sharp.
Now you just gotta replace DKC with Mario Land in the picture and you are good to go.

That's pretty dope, just need the controller board.
That's an awesome portable. Still not portable enough to fit in your pocket, though.
Two buttons for SNES games? Umm...
