Each frame from Iconic Tech Studio features authentic components sourced from real gaming devices. Minor marks or wear may be present, reflecting the device’s genuine history. For safety reasons, the battery is not included with any Iconic products.

Every piece is handcrafted and safely prepared, honoring the artistry and innovation that defined a gaming generation.

Few devices spark nostalgia like the Game Boy Color - a handheld that made gaming truly portable and vividly alive. Its bright shells, compact form factor, and instantly recognizable silhouette helped define late-90s and early-2000s gaming culture. For many, it was a first console, a constant travel companion, and a doorway into timeless classics.

This handcrafted frame preserves that legacy through a thoughtful presentation of genuine Nintendo components. Inside each display, the motherboard, LCD module, button array, speaker, cartridge connector, and the original polycarbonate shell are arranged in a clean, gallery-style layout. Each component is individually cleaned and mounted with precision. The battery compartment is displayed without batteries, ensuring safety while maintaining the device’s authentic structure.

The Game Boy Color was released in a spectrum of playful finishes, including Atomic Purple, Berry, Kiwi, Grape, Dandelion, and Teal, along with later limited editions. Iconic Tech Studio preserves the original color of each authentic unit, allowing every frame to reflect the unique personality of the sourced console. 

Encased in a black wood frame with a refined, museum-like presentation, this piece transforms a beloved gaming icon into a striking, design-forward artwork — perfect for collectors, gamers, designers, and anyone who grew up in the world of Nintendo.

I LOVE this piece. It looks great on my wall! It came very well packaged and there were no issues with shipping. Very well made item.

Thanks Kelsey! We are so glad that you enjoy that Berry Red Game Boy Custom Project we were able to do for you. It was our pleasure to craft your beloved Game Boy into this frame for you.

Worth the money to not be stressed

I have a graveyard of half-finished projects in my garage. I almost added a Gameboy teardown to the pile, but decided to just buy from Iconic Tech Studio instead. Best decision. The presentation is incredible, especially the way they mount the buttons and the conductive rubber pads so they 'float' perfectly. That is something I absolutely would have messed up with superglue. It would have taken me 10+ hours to source, clean, design, print, and assemble this to this standard. If you want it to look professional rather than 'homemade,' just buy it. Iconic reached out to me based on my reddit post and offered me a special on top of the New Years discount which sealed the deal for me.

Thanks for your purchase!

Great buy

As a graphic designer, I appreciate the typography and the layout of the 'exploded' view. It turns a toy into a piece of industrial archeology. It fits perfectly in my minimalist living room. It looks great on the wall.

Thanks for your purchase!

The perfect gift

My husband is impossible to shop for because he buys everything he wants. He's a huge retro gaming nerd, so I took a chance on this frame. He was absolutely floored. The packaging was surprisingly premium (matte black box, well padded), so it felt expensive before he even opened it. He spent 20 minutes just pointing at the different chips and explaining what they did. If you have a geek in your life, this is a winner.

Thanks for your purchase, super happy to hear your husband loved it! We aim for a luxury experience with the unboxing, sounds like we got it right!

Don't try making it yourself

I saw a TikTok on how to make these and thought, 'I can save $100 doing this myself.' Huge mistake. I spent weeks sourcing a junk Gameboy on eBay, then stripped two screw heads trying to take it apart. Then I realized I didn't know how to clean the battery corrosion off the motherboard without damaging it. By the time I factored in the cost of the shadowbox, the special tri-wing screwdrivers, the glue, and the printable template (which I couldn't get to print at the right scale), I had spent nearly as much as Iconic charges and had nothing to show for it. Iconic Tech Studio's frame arrived perfect, clean, and zero stress. Save your weekends and let the pros handle it.

Thanks for your purchase! We have definitely done the research to get it right every time, glad we were able to get you a beautiful piece for your wall!

Exactly what I wanted

The layout is super clean, and I love that they included the original button membranes. It's not just a poster; it's the actual hardware - you can tell by the usage shown on the side of the case. It looks incredible hanging in my office above my PC setup. Highly recommend for anyone who spent their childhood trying to catch 'em all by the light of a streetlamp.

Thanks for your purchase! We're glad you enjoy it! We can all remember those streetlamp moments!

A Pop of Color for my gameroom

I have a very neutral, Scandi-style living room and wanted one 'fun' element. I wanted a Berry gameboy and the result is stunning. The contrast between the bright plastic and the professional black frame makes it look like a curated piece of pop art. It's a great way to show off my personality without cluttering up surfaces.

That pop of Berry sounds like the perfect accent! Thanks for the review.

Nice frame

As an archivist, I appreciate the build quality here. The mounting is secure but gentle, ensuring the pieces aren't stressed. I used Iconic Tech Studio for a limited edition Zelda Gameboy color, and it looks like it belongs in a museum gallery. A truly awesome, sophisticated way to display gaming history.

We take preservation seriously! Thanks for buying from us!

A Retro Statement Piece

I've been moving away from 'tech-heavy' decor and towards things with a bit of soul. This frame for an Atomic Purple GBC like I used to have is exactly what my bookshelf needed. The clear shell of the Gameboy is a work of art on its own, and the frame's depth allows the light to catch the internal circuitry perfectly. It's a nostalgic piece that feels incredibly high-end.

Atomic Purple is a classic! It looks stunning! Thanks for your purchase!

Frequently asked questions

What is the return policy?

All of our items are custom made and fabricated uniquely. None of our products are factory produced. Therefore, we are unable to accept returns unless they are due to fabrication issues.

Why are some colors priced differently?

Our product pricing strategy reflects the costs involved in obtaining the products we use to upcycle into frames. Certain sizes and colors are harder to find in good condition and therefore have additional cost to procure. We do our best to limit these variations wherever possible.

When will I get my order?

Once you place your order, we begin the fabrication process of building your custom frame.  This process typically takes 7-10 business days.  We will then do a secondary Quality Check and get your item boxed up for shipping.

Once your order has shipped, you will receive an email with tracking information. Delivery times vary depending on your location and delivery choice at checkout.
