The recently updated 8-Bit Pocket Camera is a $0.99 application that can turn your iPhone or iPod touch's camera into a Game Boy Camera - the kind we loved to play around with back in 1998. The app snaps retro style 128x112 images, that users can add special effects to, or share to Facebook and Twitter.
Key features of the application include a live viewfinder, "special effects," montages, and sharing capabilities (Facebook and Twitter). In the updated version (1.1), users can also change the borders around their photos.
If you were a fan of the Game Boy Camera (or just the Game Boy itself), this app take you back to the late '90s in a trip down memory lane. Or, if you just like playing with camera apps, you'll enjoy 8-Bit Pocket Camera, too.
As mentioned, 8-Bit Pocket Camera is currently available to download in the App Store for $0.99. Check it out, and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
