There is a pixelfed account that posts exclusively Game Boy camera images. Coolest thing I’ve seen in some time.

The look of Gameboy Camera posts always makes me insanely nostalgic. It's such a distinct look, and I loved mine back in the day (still think I have it stored somewhere in my closet).

Also cool: I found this Lemmy post via Kbin, then followed the Pixelfed user via my Mastdon account. Federation is cool.

What! Didn't realize I could do that. Just followed on mastodon as well.

Super cool and great find. I always wanted one of these

Reminds me of this neocities site that has a collection of Gameboy Camera photos collected from the internet.

Ive been wanting to buy one for a while to modify it so I can use telephoto lenses on it. The dithering on it is such a good look

This is genuinely very cool and has made me nostalgic enough to consider trying to get hold of one for my Game Boy! I only wish I had some photography talent, as it's quite a feat to take good photos with something so technically rubbish.

I used the hell out of mine back when I had it, loved this thing.

Mostly remember looking at the printer in a game shop thinking I'll never afford this. Very cool result.

No, but I had the Game Boy Printer back in the day! Printed a lot of Pokédex entries with that guy.

@Jeze3D that's rad! I'm always looking for more Pixelfed accounts to follow.

[–] wowthatsawful@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

very cool. I vaguely remember this existing but I definitely didn't have one. love how the images turn out.

[–] brunox@feddit.cl 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks for this. I'm following the account on Mastodon now. :)

No instagram for me. Meta products can kick rocks.
