Project has differences from Wonderswan:
I will design case using original Wonderswan Color 3d scanned.
Then i'll fit Raspberry Pi Zero inside:
Other parts to search and consider:
New features to add:
Cartridge model is done. Raspberry Pi for this project is in the post office, waiting for pickup.
I guess Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W will be placed in cartridge. Making SD card not exposed to the outside. USB and HDMI ports looking upwards. Even CSI camera connector can be used. Cartridge with camera..
Omg i've got an idea what to do after this project. A lossless ipod in the shape of this walkman.
I managed to get Wonderswan Color in my city. But without cartridge! Anyway, this unit will be 3d scanned soon.
Hello. Thanks. Surprisingly i bought it in small city of Russia.
Interesting that they put "Arcadia" on the top right of the screen, which was the name of a card game, a video game, and a home console that all either predate the anime or were semi-contemporary.
Since it wasn't exactly a Wonderswan, you should feel the liberty to tweak the overall design as needed.
I would kindly help with reproducing the cartridge and device labels if you haven't already designed them
Hi. Nice project! As an Eva otaku I couldn't be more excited to see the completion.
BTW, it seems there are IPS LCD mod kits for WSC being sold around Aliexpress.
I'm not sure the LCD is fbdev compatible or even SPI interfaced, but FYI.

Cool, thanks for add. I'm gonna get IPS mod and try to work with it. But i also want to fiddle with bigger displays.
If you are having difficulty 3D scanning, try photoprogrammetry. First you must fully paint the original completely matte with tempra paint or some sort of powder spray to get rid of the reflectivity. Then you must fleck some paint onto it with a toothbrush to aid the algorithm in tracking it. Then you take it out on a cloudy day (no shadows) and take 80-100 photos of it from every angle, ideally mounted on a jig so you can get every angle. then, run the photos through colmap or colmap CL. you will get a point cloud that you can then remesh into a complete model. you can google "photogrammetry" to get some detailed information on how to do all this.
Hello. Thanks for suggestion. I thought about it. Cant paint it because Wonderswan belongs to another person, currently i cant afford it. But there's not much to scan actually, I almost completely modelled it in CAD

Very cool project.
Being a fan of Evangelion and living in Japan, if you wish to purchase a second hand Wonderswan Color I could help. Let me know. 😉
