Calculator Boy

I, like everyone else, encounter many hard mathematical problems on a daily basis. Carrying around a Game Boy is easy, but what if you need a calculator on the go?
A calculator weighs a lot and you look like a dork if you suddenly whip out a calculator in public. But Nintendo figured out a way to make you look rad while also having a spare brain in your pocket.
The Calculator Boy is an official Nintendo product from 1992 and even has it’s own Game Boy tag, mine’s GBE-008 as seen in the image below.
The calculator is as basic as they get end when opened you even have a metric conversion chart in case you happen to drop by the states and need to know how many square feet a gallon of milk is. Just looking at the imperial system makes my head explode, what where they thinking?
Anyway, have a look inside. I think this is a pretty rare Nintendo product since I’ve only ever seen ONE other image of it on the web so far. Well, I’m here to change that! Woop woop. I can spell 318008 upside down.

It’s hard to find information about this calculator so please drop a comment below if you know anything. The first Google seearch I do ends up with this page that claims it’s the work of a modder, but it’s clearly not since that one looks like it’s been through hell. The copyright print also claims otherwise.
