Thread 4462992

Any love for the Game Boy Camera and printer here?
Sure nowadays even the chinkest of cameras and printers may be better with printing via phone bigger and clearer photos but there's a certain charm and fun in doing with with a Game Boy of all things.

>>4462992 (OP)
I still have my camera but not a printer
Doubt it still has my old pics on it but would be fun to see

I've been meaning to put together this rehousing for one to make use of my collection of C-mount lenses

I love my cat even if she behaves like a piss demon sometimes

There was a big thread last year of some anon here doing some legitimately interesting shit with the GB camera and a bunch of accessories to get fancy with it. Might even be >>4463018.

I tried a little while ago to get a creepy old hospital image off the one I bought in Japan many years ago.
Made two dumb instagram reels of it:

Here's the image, left in that cartridge since 1998.
I wonder if he died, and if his family just sold off his old games without knowing that they had a picture of him...

>>4463067
Doesn't really look like he was the one taking the picture. It's also pretty hard to tell if he's 12 or 50 in that pic.

>>4463072
No, but it could still have been his camera, since the camera roll ends there.
Could have been a friend or sibling taking it.

Mine had photos from the previous owner, seems like a cool guy. I hope he's doing fine.

Game Boy Color :tm:

>>4463010
amazing

I have like 10 packs of GB Printer paper unopened. I got them from TRU on clearance for like .25 each.
The funny part is that I didn’t get a Printer until like 10 years later.

>>4466372
There's a pretty high chance the chemicals in those roll is faded by now, I'd suggest getting new rolls.
I've seen people recommend this one if you live in the States.

>>4463016
How come you’re allowed to post tits? I thought this was a blue board!!! MOOOOODS

soiboi level are really high of this thread. imagine falling for anther nostalgia gimmick

>HECKIN GAMEBOYRINOOOO IS COOL I TAKE PHOTOS OF MY WIFE'S BOYFRIEND WITH IT WE ARE SO QUIRKY CHUGNUS MMMHMMMM

I found photographic evidence of Greys on a GC camera.

I really enjoy the Game Boy Camera, bought mine around when it was new. I really wanted a Pocket at the time, but couldn't afford it - just waited for the GBC. Never really bothered with the printer even though I had one, it was too novel and not very useful - unlike other cooler accessories like Pocket Pikachu 2 or the GB modem which I actually used.

Maybe a decade or so ago, I bought a pretty cool little device online which lets me link-cable transfer the pictures to an SD card. Making photography a habit has been on my to-do. But it's always just been a fun toy for me to play with sometimes, along with Mario Paint and Electroplankton and such.

This is the secret nobody bothers with. You can actually manually convert the files to be color, the data is there. I wonder if anybody has made a program which does it?

But you can get colors by taking three separate shots with different color filters and stacking them in post.

Ah yes, you are right. Pardon me. I was going off of a 20 year old memory, so it was hazy. Crose enough.

>>4474456
Other anon is correct. I took 3 filtered shots and composited them.

As someone who never owned a gameboy and cares very little about it, this performative "disinterest" is so fucking retarded. Absolute slop for the cynicism slurpers.

The concept is fun. You should consider killing yourself if you get this pressed about some niche shit.

Saw one out in public for the first time in a long time a few weeks ago… seemed like he was enjoying it, and definitely made me smile lol

>bing bing wahoo, so long gay bowser!
It's you who needs to kill xirself, soitroon

>>4477150
Not that anon, but he's right.
In your attempt at mockery, you have become that which you attempted to mock.

I fucking love the Gameboy Camera, here's a few pics I took.
Always wanted to get one of those upgrades, an optical zoom would be so cool.

>>4470551
No way me too

It gets surprisingly good detail.
