Gameboy Costume That Actually Works

By Ned Hepburn on February 18th, 2009

Next time you attend a costume party don’t be that tool with the sheet over his head and especially don’t be “The Absence Of Costume” (that was funny in 6th grade, not anymore, bro). Put some effort into it. The best costume I ever saw was “Groucho Marx dressed as The Flash”, and if he can do it, you can do it too.

So take a look at what this guy does. Take a note from his playbook and go as AN ACTUAL WORKING (sorta) GAMEBOY. The contraption is basically made out of cardboard and a laptop, and in the video you can hear him say how flimsy the set up is, but holy shit, he’s an actual working Gameboy. Hopefully the kid playing just really, really sucks at Tetris.

If you’re still jones’ng for more Gameboy action check out the (still running!) official site here. Or just go beat up a kid that has one and steal it. That’s what happened to mine. He was taller than me, what can you expect? Still hate that guy.
