Gameboy Advance SP on-the-go - Rugged Box

Gameboy Advance SP on-the-go - Rugged Box

Remix / Design by R_vdk

Application / Functions

As I love to get my old gameboy out from time to time, I thought a good rugged case was finally in place. This case is perfect for me as it both fits on the Prusa Mini+, as well as accomodates just enough of my games (I only have 4, lost 2 but am thinking of buying a couple more).

Features

• Perfectly fitted space for the Gameboy Advance SP;
• Handy cutout to get the device out easily;
• Storage space for the charger → under revision;
• Custom insert spaces for 6 cartridges;
• Easy to use hinges
• Easy to use clamp
• Steel or wooden axles needed (diam. 2mm)
• Top of the box inserted with custom foamrubber to protect everything.

Update 8-09-2023 

• Added cutouts to improve cartridge spacing

Update 11-09-2023 (After first print)

• Increased top shell heigth by 10mm to better accomodate the cable;
• Moved cartridges more to the right to eliminate lid interference;
• Strengthened the clamp-mechanism

Update 12-09-2023

• Current model fits all parts perfectly;
• Clamp closes with ease but doesn't get stuck;
• Insert of foamrubber or similar above the gameboy required to prevent it from rattling.

Future improvements

I will be updating this model untill satsified with the result. In the near future, I will probably explore storing the cartridges in the top shell, without compromising the overall slender look of the box. Follow for more info!
