If the Alarmo isn’t quite your style and you are looking for something a little more mobile. Checkout this GameBoy mod from modroom_my. It features a Pi Pico and an eInk display
This time it’s an e-ink clock built fully inside a Gameboy DMG shell! I’ve made it Pokemon themed to look like it’s having a double battle with sprites from Gen 2. The sprites themselves can be swapped out easily so you can choose any sprites you’d want to wake up next to
Running on a raspberry pi pico, I’ve even made it use the original Gameboy speaker to use as an alarm. Runs on batteries in the original battery compartment and micro usb. Features: e-ink to bring you back to the days of needing a backlight to look at the screen
Tom’s Hardware talked with the maker to get more details:
We contacted Mod Room My, who confirmed more details about the build. The Pico is housed behind an old aftermarket Pokémon cartridge as it was necessary to trim it down to make room for the hardware, and he didn’t want to deface an original cartridge. The eInk panel used supports three colors: black, white, and red, which makes for a more visually interesting result. There were plans to use the original buttons to control the clock functions, but this idea was scrapped since the refresh rate takes longer on an eInk screen.
