All white shell with IPS drop in screen, aftermarket white cart with ez flash jr (and a crystal sticker to finish it off)
It's the Gameboy of Theseus!
Bro you took the color outta the Gameboy color lmao
That looks sick, how difficult was the process?
It's actually not very difficult but can be pricey depending on what you wanna mod and the tools you need to get. Plenty of YouTube videos that teach you how to do it, and I highly recommend checking some out.
Many IPS screens for the GB/A require extra sanding or removal of plastic internals so that the screen seats correctly.
We need new front lenses that say "Game Boi Color" for units like these that are so awesome.
That looks incredible!
That is gorgeous.
This is slick! I love it!
Can you get the dot matrix effect on the ips screens? It’s a big part of the gba nostalgia for me
Some screens have this as an optional feature. A lot of times they call it something like “retro pixel.”
Ah, very cool, I’ll have to look into it more
Nice! I just got a similarly modded GBA and Pokemon gold to play on vacation 😄 I'm so excited
Where did you buy it out of interested? Not sure I could more this myself but would be intrigued to know how much it would cost to buy.
Etsy. Just search 'modded gameboy' and you'll see plenty of results
Imma be honest. It sounds like you’re describing a hotrod lol
I love it. This is really cool!
Been wanting to make one of these so bad, anyone know of a goode guide that a beginner can follow along?
Love this, I'm about to attempt my first GBA mod this weekend. Got a bone stock blue one off ebay with a broken screen so going to install a backlit LCD
How did your modding turn out?
Don't judge me....1 year later these parts are still sitting on my desk awaiting assembly lol
I’ll check back again next year then, hahaha.
Love it. I’ve seen a few metal CNC cases too.
Real sick tbh
My custom FunnyPlaying SP build is basically the same - all white everything!
Never seen a crystal in grey tbh
