[ASMR] Announcing My Official Gameboy Photography Site

Описание: Hobbies. It's good to have some when you have absolutely nothing else in life.

I have always had a deep fondness and warmth in my heart for the Nintendo Gameboy, specifically my very first as a kid, because there were reasons at that time and place in history when that device was rather groundbreaking. To top it off, you would've had one upset kiddo if you tried to take mine away from me. Let's just say that when it comes to that original gray brick, I have mountains of memories, including my introduction to Pokemon.

Over the years of my childhood and beyond, I of course upgraded and had several iterations of Gameboys and Nintendo handhelds, but the sheer sight and feel of the original is unique for me, so as a grown adult, I managed to integrate it into fun hobbies. For example, in 2016, I wrote an entire chiptune album written and performed using just one modified gray brick Gameboy, the DMG-01. More recently, I decided to do purposely bad photography as an actual hobby using the ol' brick and the 1998 Gameboy Camera, which took 2-bit/4 color pallete (monochrome) pictures at a shockingly low 128px resolution. Again, for a mass market consumer product, pretty groundbreaking on Nintendo's part since digital cameras were not at all commonplace.

I have launched my own page, a glorified and slightly better organized Instagram-esque idea, dedicated entirely to photography with Gameboy Camera units using, you guessed, the DMG-01 Gameboy from 1989. Just me enjoying myself a bit, and a way to occasionally pull me out of my hermit hole. Bored enough to go look??
