Glucoboy Rewards Diabetics With GBA Fun

Thanks to Joystick101 for pointing to a news piece discussing the in-development Glucoboy add-on for the GameBoy Advance. According to the article, "Glucoboy is a glucose meter that can be inserted into a Nintendo GameBoy. The product operates independent of the video game system, but downloads video game programs that are contained within its circuitry into the GameBoy as a reward for maintaining good blood sugar control." The product hopes to help children with diabetes monitor their condition better, and the creator comments that his son "...always knew where his GameBoy was, but he always seemed to misplace his Glucometer."

Now CowboyNeal will be able to easily test his blood sugar no matter which chair is groaning beneath him. Well, as long as there's a strong light source nearby (UNLESS HE'S AN SP USER).
