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.
If anyone wants to follow the creator on mastodon, just search for the account
“@[email protected]”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
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

I used the hell out of mine back when I had it, loved this thing.
I got one of these gizmos. I remember seeing a guide about getting the pics off it. Does anyone have a link?
You need JoeyJr or similar device.
Oh heck yes €53 why not haha?

This might be relevant!
Reminds me of this neocities site that has a collection of Gameboy Camera photos collected from the internet.
Mostly remember looking at the printer in a game shop thinking I’ll never afford this. Very cool result.
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.
Wow! I completely forgot that this existed!
Thanks for this. I’m following the account on Mastodon now. :)
@Jeze3D that’s rad! I’m always looking for more Pixelfed accounts to follow.
very cool. I vaguely remember this existing but I definitely didn’t have one. love how the images turn out.
Gameboy Camera helped me understand how bugs see. Lol
Matt Grey on the YouTubes has a couple of videos with his Gameboy camera. He’s managed to take a few coloured photos, and set up a way to almost instantly get the pictures from the GBC to his phone.
