An incredibly rare, highly sought-after piece of King Gizzard history. Released in 2022 by the independent DIY label Gizzmoix Records, this is Copy #1 of an ultra-limited first pressing of only 50 units worldwide.
This unique release utilizes King Gizzard's official, open-source license program to port the band's acclaimed 2017 album, Polygondwanaland, onto a functional Nintendo Game Boy cartridge. Because it is an authorized fan-release backed by the band's unique distribution policy, it is a fully legitimate collectible.
The Cartridge: A custom, transparent blue Game Boy game cartridge that boots up a fully interactive software program compatible with original Game Boy and retro-handheld hardware.
On-Cartridge Content: Contains a playable custom "jump n' run" platformer game starring the Gizzverse character Han-Tyumi, complete with 8-bit chiptune arrangements of the Polygondwanaland tracklist and a retro image gallery.
Exclusive Packaging Art: Housed in a clear protective clamshell case featuring vibrant, 90s retro-inspired custom artwork designed by popular community artist bup_world.
Collector's Numbering: Hand-labeled on the reverse side as 1/50, making it the historic very first copy produced from the original run.
DIY Authenticity: Features the signature parody "Official Gizzmoix Seal" with a tongue-in-cheek disclaimer confirming it is an independent, non-Nintendo sanctioned passion project made with "plenty of DIY heart and soul."
Case & Insert: Excellent condition; colors are sharp, vibrant, and free of significant wear.
Cartridge: Pristine transparent blue plastic shell with a perfectly intact label.
