Hyperkin’s Smart Boy Case Turns Your Phone into a Game Boy Dylan Duarte June 17, 2016 News Despite playing the heck out of my Nintendo DS a few years back, I’ve never been able to get into gaming on my smartphone. I can’t be the only one, either. Fortunately for us, Hyperkin has found a way to merge those two worlds and get people like you and I back into mobile gaming. Hyperkin’s Smart Boy case, which debuted earlier this week at E3 2016, turns your Android smartphone into a Game Boy. The case is built just like Nintendo’s early portable, with the same layout and selection of buttons. Even better, it doesn’t just play emulators; you can insert real Game Boy cartridges as well. The Smart Boy case was originally meant for both Android and iPhone, but according to the company it will only be available for Android for the time being. The product is expected to ship in December of 2016. We’ll likely know more as we get closer to the release date. Share This With The World!
