Localized super gameboy 2 possible?

I was wondering if its possible to use the case north american super gameboy(i'd need to cut it) and the PCB of the super gameboy 2 to create a localized version I've seen a dude that soldered a female gameboy link cable port to it and it worked, but I have no experience at soldering.

    I'm not understanding the question. What do you mean be "Localized"?

    it would be easier to just take some pliers and pull out the tabs in your SNES so you can play the SGB2. I did that and now enjoy it along with a gameboy everdrive.

    the super gameboy2 can be played on the regular SNES if you mod the snes? o:



    didn't knew that, and I wanted to play some GBC games in it :c

    I'm kind of a purist when it comes to consoles. Maybe I will just get a gamecube and a gameboy player.

    If you're a purist when it comes to consoles, why play Gameboy games on a Gamecube? Better yet, why not have a dedicated Gameboy console that hooks up to your TV for you to play on? (I think that would be pretty sweet)

    Has anyone ever built one? What could look pretty cool like the gamegear console.

    Not quite sure if anyone ever built a Gameboy console, but I imagine it's not that hard of a thing to do , I've run across videos of guys sampling the video data with an FPGA and then just put out video over VGA or HDMI. In fact, I think all the Gameboy hardware would fit inside an FPGA, without too much hassle

    I'm picturing a really really tiny SNES.

    Would be awesome

    I think it would be kind of nice, but you lose any kind of link cable usage if you're going that route.. Unless you make some software core with wi-fi and a backend to connect to some other machine over the internet.
