I think it will fit. It's a little difficult to be sure from this image (http://bit.ly/1QFRku8) but I think it will just about fit (obviously in the picture it's to one side of the Pine, but the battery looks very flat, not rising above the screw mount points).
If you want to be able to move your playBOX without losing power, I would get that second battery
There would be no problem wiring the Pine on/off circuit to the Gameboy power switch. Would just require a spot of soldering...
Why have you (we) got to cover the battery cover clasp? Without seeing the unit in front of me, it's a little difficult to gain the right perspective on what will/won't need to be ripped out... I was just thinking about the possibility of buying a different shaped LiPo battery separately/or a small power bank, and use the existing battery compartment to house that...though the compartment itself probably takes up too much depth, that's why it would have to be removed, right?
Gotta have that clacking sound
