Are you making fun of me sir? :lol:

I really DID see a guy doing a live pa using a gameboy....at this monthly party here called 'gamers night groove'. Fun party actually....they set up a sh*tload of game consoles around the venue so people can play-and have djs and usually like one live pa. Lots of fun.....will have to find out from my friend if he remembers the guy who did the live pa when I was there......

but yeah...you can mod a gameboy to either become a sound generator or to control hardware. amazing little things, ain't they?

Little Sound Dj, the Game Boy/Game Boy Color tool of choice for amateur & professional musicians and composers! The basic idea is to transform a plain Game Boy/Game Boy Color into a full-fledged music workstation.

works with VisualBoyAdvance (PC/Linux/Mac), KiGB (PC/Linux/Mac) and No$GMB or BGB (PC). but as it says "Keep in mind that sound emulation can never be 100%, mostly because the low-grade hardware used in Game Boys adds some characteristic noise" ;)

Gameboys used as sound generators!!?

:shock:

Crazy s**t...
