This thing was bought in Spain many years ago and has an arcade stick for GB and sound and light are very powerful. Contains two big batteries. Konami is the trademark. I never saw this thing around and i´m really curious to know what is it. Any help will be great. Here are some pics...

This is the Konami Game Boy Mini Arcade. Not a good accesorry.

It's supposed to feel like an arcade experience with the joy stick and button placement.

No problem man. :D I knew this because I saw it in the recent Tips and Tricks.

Blimey, I haven't seen one of those in about 15years. I wondered in Telegames all that time ago, and the guys had it out demoing it.

I've often wondered who manufactured it, and if I could ever find one again.

I saw an ad for one of those in an old EGM magazine....i wondered if those were real or not.

I got one of these a couple years ago. Neat idea. Not the greatest accessory, but definitely amusing for its weird factor for sure. I think it even has a couple compartments for extra games, iirc.
