![]() But perhaps the coolest part of the whole thing is the enclosure, which is actually one of those old GameBoy Advance-shaped carrying cases, making it perfect for housing all the various internal components. Then, instead of the not-so-great-feeling N64 joystick, Hailrazer swapped that out for the much-improved GameCube one. Wild also installed a 4.3-inch widescreen and an audio amp harvested from “an iPod-type amplifier.” As noted in his video and over at RetroDodo last week, Wild’s design takes its parts from a number of different sources: obviously, there’s the original N64’s motherboard in there (with some added heatsink protection), alongside two sets of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries from a couple of camcorders providing 5-6 hours of continuous play. The sum of its parts - Hailrazer’s N64Boy Advance is honestly an incredibly ingenious piece of hardware, especially when you consider it was made back in 2011.
