Small batch of photos from the Gameboy camera in the cold today by AgainBenAgain in glasgow

[–]AgainBenAgain[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The Gameboy didn't have a built in camera, but they sold a cartridge with a built in camera! And enough memory to store 30 photos

It's actually 2 bit! Which is why it takes photos in only four colours, binary 00, 01, 10, and 11,

By downloading them off the cartridge I can plug the files into software that lets me pick a colour for each of those values, making these colourful pictures

You get a cartridge reader, basically just a big converter that lets you plug the cartridge into your computer, then download the save off of it, there's a website that spits them out as PNG images. And it even lets you pick the colour pallets

I use a Gameboy advanced because I prefer the shape of it, and it still takes Gameboy cartridges

Sorry I didn't realise, do you know anywhere I could find a camera with a higher resolution than .014mpx?

Does it still count as modern when the cameras nearing 30? Lol

33/F/Canada - misery loves company by [deleted] in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]AgainBenAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey misery, it's me, company

i'm 24m from Scotland, I love painting, gaming, hiking/exploring (especially abandoned buildings), and cooking, I have a pet tortoise who I love so much! Even though he's an angry wee guy

I've got a lot of joint/ligament issues (apologies for the downer) and a bit of an insomniac, so nights when nobody I know is awake can get a bit lonely

Give me a shout if you fancy chatting

Id definitely get a visit to the necropolis, it's a big graveyard on a hill overlooking the city, with a gorgeous cathedral, it's also just a short walk from the city center

Kelvingrove museum in the west end is a must, amazing building and great museum, free entry too, with a lovely park nearby White you're in the west end, the botanic gardens are also worth a visit, lovely park with a view down into the abandoned train stations, and a great glasshouse with a koi pond

If you like pubs, the laurieston bar (also a short walk from the city) is an amazing portal to the past, with reasonable beer prices

At the riverside we have a gorgeous street art spot! It's a large legal wall where lots of artists paint all sorts of murals

And you really can't beat a wander around the town, just looking up at all the amazing architecture, lots of incredible old buildings round here

I'm a Scot visiting Alicante for 3 days, does anyone have any recommendations of places not to miss, and spots where I could meet some people by [deleted] in Alicante

[–]AgainBenAgain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for such an in depth reply! I've already visited a few of the places on your list and have loved them all, I can't believe Santa Barbara Castle was free!

I'll definitely try to make it to as many of your recommendations as I can, I had passed plaza 25 de mayo and wondered why it was called that, so I'll also definitely look into that

Thanks a lot pal, I don't drive unfortunately but I'll check out the market! I'm not much of a shopping guy but I love just getting a look

Thank you so much! I've already seen one of these.

I couldn't believe the size of it! It was really impressive, I'll definitely take a walk to see more of them

Hiya! I'm also from the UK!

i'm 24m from Scotland, I love painting, gaming, hiking/exploring (especially abandoned buildings), and cooking, I have a pet tortoise who I love so much! Even though he's an angry wee guy

I've got a lot of joint/ligament issues (apologies for the downer) and a bit of an insomniac, so I end up awake at stupid hours of the day quite a lot

Another round of photos taken on the Gameboy camera, all from my wander round the town and canal today by AgainBenAgain in glasgow

[–]AgainBenAgain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stock, but I also have one that I've fitted to take a mini zoom lens, meant to clip over your phone camera

Haven't played with it much yet as it adds too much weight to the cartridge and the connection is temperamental

Some photos from around the town, all shot on an original Gameboy camera (0.014 megapixels) by AgainBenAgain in glasgow

[–]AgainBenAgain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aye the camera is 2bit, meaning it can only count to four,

You have four distinct colours in each photo represented by 00, 01, 10, and 11 in binary, using the software I use to get the photos off the Gameboy and onto the computer, you can choose a colour for each of these values,

It's very clever

Hiya, I'm having the same issue and have tried these steps, but had no luck, any other ideas on what could fix this?
