You want to know what that user ID is useful for? One time I brought my GameBoy Camera to school to show my art teacher. Some kid stole it and then tried to claim it was his all along. I was able to prove he stole my gameboy by going to the ID screen.
@Sugar the Cat back in my school days the N64 was hot shit and i always thought people writing their name on a cardridge in the uglyest font they can pull off with a sharpie were weirdos
I remember I unfollowed him on Twitter after he RTed fanart that was actually Loss, and wrote to him saying I wouldn't come back until he apologized or something like that. He never saw the message, and I still miss his tweets...
@@cordianims *Now listen here you insensitive* you're kind of right. Whenever I remember I did that, I get really angsty; if I keep staying unfollowed in vain, AK won't even know I'm doing this; if I suck it up and resub, he'll officially have gotten away with it without the feeling of any penalties.
i remember messing around with the 3DS camera a lot. I made a video where i said "what the hell?" backwards and then poured water into a cup and then spilled it out, so when you played the video backwards, the water would look freaky and cool, and then i'd say "what the hell?"
Such a bizarre item - I got a ton of mileage out of mine. My friend and I would make a makeshift gameboy stand, grab some action figures that could stand on their own and do some crude stop motion animations with them. Fun times... *Grabs Gameboy Color & Camera* The Run game - I'd pop the camera into the Super Gameboy, grab my SNES pad that had turbo and let that do all the work. I've beaten the run game once without turbo and talk about hand torture - felt like I was on some sugar rush.
This was a fantastic trip down memory lane, great vid! I 100%'d this "game" back in the day and spent countless weekends with my brothers and friends making funny pictures and hotspot games, sharing them with each other, and printing goofy photos that we'd sticker on all sorts of stuff like school books and game cartridges... ahhhhh, good times, good times. Collecting all of those album pics was such a huge challenge! Truly one of the most enjoyable Game Boy games ever made, and who woulda thought, it'd be a camera.
This is one of the most comprehensive pieces of software/hardware I've ever seen. The developers really had a field day with it, cramming every single possible idea into one package. I need to get something like this one day
FYI, the Wii did have a camera. The Wii Remote pointer works by an IR camera seeing the “sensor bar”, which is really just two IR LEDs about 30cm apart. It’s basically the same camera found inside the right Joy-Con.
Really good video man! I just subscribed a few days ago and I'm really enjoying your content. I ordered a gameboy camera recently and I can't wait to try it out for myself!
Great overview! Thank you! I printed out so many Gameboy Camera images when I was in middle school back in 1998. The Gameboy Camera could easily have been called Mario Paint 2, and it would have been nearly as true.
Yes ! I used to use the drawing and hotspot features to create adventures and explorations ! The only frustration was the 30 images memory limit 😅. I had endless fun.
I can't believe how good some of the music in this game cart had-- oh wait, Nintendo always does that for their games, no matter how small. It's something that nobody ever talks about and it makes me sad.
It's wild seeing how downplayed the Pokémon stuff was in the international version compared to Japan, especialy with how "PokéMania" hit those regions hard months, if not years after the Game Boy Camera came out.
The gb cam was the last thing i got for a gameboy. I somehow deleted more than i shot 😅 . 1088 Fotos shots. Run! 18:88 minutes. Ball 272. Space fever 5980
You skipped the bit of using a Japanese gbcamera for the Mario artist series. You can import your photos and use them at textures on 3d characters. So got get yourself a n64 dd and all the mario artist games!
Hey bro how did you manage to screen record? Did you connected to the computer to get output or something? I’m wanting to do the animation and music tool with the camera and send it to my compute, is that possible? Thanks bro I really appreciate this video.
Man I wish I had a GB Camera and Printer... Oh, one thing you forgot to mention in this video was that the Game Boy Camera was used to create a cover for a music album. I think it was Paul McCartney or Rod Stewart... I can't remember.
