Pushpin MIDI Interface for Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance



This project from Brian Whitman and I has been running for many years!
It is very exciting to see that there is still interest in it.
For those curious, I have gathered up a number of important links that show different ways you can build and use this interface to turn a GBC or GBA into a MIDI-controlled music instrument.
