A series of pictures show how the "Game Boy Zero" was put together, complete with new buttons, updated ports, and a new screen — necessary because the original Game Boy could only manage monochrome games. Wermy's version uses a color display that makes it capable of playing more modern games. The tiny Raspberry Pi inside runs Emulation Station, software that lets Wermy play games from not only the Game Boy's back catalog, but from the NES, SNES, and even Sega's Genesis and Master System consoles. Indeed, Wemy says the minuscule machine is powerful enough to run anything up to Game Boy Advance games, a handheld that saw market 12 years after the original Game Boy.
