Gamer shrinks Steam Deck into Game Boy with custom cooling

A gamer has successfully integrated the internal components of a Valve Steam Deck into the shell of a Nintendo Game Boy, creating a custom handheld device dubbed the 'SteamBoy'. The project utilizes a 3D-printed cooling system with a small fan and heatsink from AliExpress, managing temperatures between 70-80 degrees Celsius during gameplay. The modder is currently working on integrating a 1200x1080, 90Hz AMOLED display, which requires a custom adapter PCB and a BIOS modification similar to those used in other Steam Deck modding projects.
