Found this hilarious story of a wannabe bomber in, unsuprisingly America, who made his gameboy into a gamebomb:

Anyway - what's all this about a Game Boy bomb? Well, according to the Houston Chronicle, a young lad at the local Livingston Junior High School was taken into police custody last Friday after his fellow students discovered he was lugging around a homemade Game Boy bomb.

According to the report the inventive youngster had hollowed out the Game Boy - hopefully not dispensing with the innards - before filling it with gunpowder. Like all master criminals however his vanity was his downfall - one of his mates quickly rang Crime Stoppers after he started boasting about it. He was promptly arrested on a school bus headed to a track meet.

The boy could now be charged with carrying a prohibited weapon into a school zone, which sort of begs the question: which weapons aren't prohibited in a school zone!?
