AFAIK from my time in the retro console mod space, there are not any comparable products that can both display and charge your handheld simultaneously. This was a product I sorely wanted for myself, so I was eager to perfect it and share with this community!  Any support you can give to aid my future design pursuits is greatly appreciated!

 

Showcase your custom modded GBA console with re-chargeable battery in style by cradling it in this elegant and minimal charging dock.  The dock is designed around a USB-C male to female adapter component which easily slots into the two piece design.  Assembly is incredibly easy and no glue is required!  Simply slot the elbow adapter into the plug and insert it into the main dock body by aligning the keys from the bottom of the unit.  

 

The dock prints in two pieces and the elbow is purchased separately
slide the elbow into the plug piece so the port is flush with the back of the housing
Flip the dock body over to expose the key port
Fit the plug assembly into the port and press it flush to lock it into place

 

Your dock is now ready for use!  Attach a USB cable to the rear port of the housing 

 

This design very specifically utilizes the dimensions of a USB elbow product I found on amazon, which you can purchase from the following link (please note this link is provided as part of the affiliate program and any purchase you make earns a small commission for me):

My GBA of choice here utilizes an aftermarket hispeedido shell with USB port battery compartment, but from what I've seen the positioning of this port is roughly the same across brands so it ~should~ accommodate other models.
