Game Boy footage for a video

This might be in the wrong place, and if it is I am sorry. Really not sure where this could go.

Ok I was wondering if anyone has ever tired to make a video using footage from a Game Boy. Either from capturing it with a video card and a Game Cube or from a ROM.

I was just wondering about this.

It's possible but....

The Site FAQ wrote:Non-Japanese animation and non-animated source are not allowed...
(emphasis added by me)

Just footage of you playing the game isn't enough to qualify as an anime music video, and most GameBoy games lack any type of cutscenes that could be used for a video...I say most, I know Chain of Memories has some.

However, if you blend video game footage with anime source to create something, that's possible. And there are many videos with that concept floating around (i.e. the NES Project and RVG Project).

I was not meaning a whole video with Game Boy Footage.

Yeah I know about the NES Project and the RVG Project. But those are with consoles, I was wondering if it has been done with the Game Boy.

Has anyone had the interest or idea before to make a video like the ones made in the NES and RVG Projests, but with Game Boy games.

If there was a good enough gameboy mix.... maybe.

Wonka's mix in the NES Project comes to mind.

Pretty good quality if you know how to work with it.
