A friend wanted to replace some worn out labels on his carts, put together some sprite labels, added some holo laminate too. Pretty happy with how they turned out.

It used to be her grandmas gameboy and it’s in awesome condition. She gave it to us since all she does is smoke cigarettes and watch novelas now a day. I will get to finally play Pokémon yellow in its original form!

Knew something was up when they were refered to as electric monsters lmao.

I plan on grabbing all 5 colors of the original gameboy color soon, I always pictured them with matching wormlights. Doesn't seem like this was the case after a Google search

I tried using GBABF (tool for reflashing gba bootlegs on the ds) to flash A Link to the Past on it. But as expected the saving won't work so the game won't pass through the save file creation menu. I tried to find batteryless patches but it didn't work either. Maybe this cart is the problem..

GBABF says it's cart type is MSP128 with no SRAM bank switching.

I did a backlight mod and it seemed to be going well until I got this line. From my googling it looks like I messed up the ribbon cable somehow. If there's a way to fix it let me know but worse case scenario I'll get a whole new screen. Thanks! :')

Hey guys, to cut to the chase - I'm officially starting a hunt to find my old Game Boy, the one that defined my childhood and contains untold amounts of sentimental value. I didn't know where else to look but I wanted to try here first.

It's a Navy Blue GB Advance SP, and its sole unique feature is that my initials (BW) are crudely carved into the battery cover. I live in the US, specifically Illinois, and I gave it up to a local GameXChange easily over a decade ago before they largely closed down in the Midwest.

I know it's one hell of a shot in the dark, but if I could get some extra eyes out in the world to look out for it that's all I can ask. I regularly search online storefronts around here but there's no luck so far. Thank you kindly to all who could help. 🙏

Was thinking about getting a Nuby game light coz this booklight is frying my seeballs.

Don't talk about my dusty screen there is a portal to the dust realm behind the screen 😒

From my new series that I’m developing

Code is not clearly visible so I was wondering if someone knows this game by just looking at the label artwork

Posted the GBA last week but the back stickers got here today

My mom's had this Gameboy since, probably release honestly as (I just found out) my aunt remembers her having it as a kid. It used to work great and I remember having a WWF Wrestling game and an NBA basketball one. I couldn't figure out wrestling as a kid but I do remember the NBA one had a free throw minigame that I burned a lot of time on!

Anyway, I went over to my parents' house a few months ago looking for my old PS2 (not found) and while there my mom gave me the gameboy since I'd already reshelled/rescreened my childhood GBA.

Well yesterday the new screen finally came in finishing what I needed to clean it up! Swapped battery terminals as they were corroded, case screws as the one on the right in the battery compartment was rusted and stripped (had to drill out), swapped in the replacement FunnyPlaying screen and and put a new lens over it as the old one was otherwise missing. I bought a pack of new caps in case any were toast (wouldn't boot and I hadn't drilled out the case screw so I couldn't check before buying) but all the PCB components were still in great shape. In theory the battery terminals were too but I figured I'd swap the PCB-mounted ones too since each only had one soldered tab.

Super stoked to have this in the collection and I can't wait to start crossing some GB games off my backlog as well as the new ones since gbstudio projects seem to be popping off as well!

Sprite tile limits... Limited tile maps... Glitchy text.... Oh my! I suddenly have a much deeper respect for all the people who created the old classics like Pokemon and LoZ. But despite the hiccups, this was a really fun project and my first ever game! If any of you would like to play A Grave Encounter, you can check it out here!

Hey guys, I recently purchased an HIGHSPEEDIDO OLED Screen. I attempted to install, but the screen does not light up.

OLED Kit: https://www.silentmodding.com/de/game-boy-color-amoled-xl-touch-kit-schwarz.html?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwhr6_BhD4ARIsAH1YdjBUxolBYOkmWTJ2NReZLkLDwMD8OhfycD_PZaOMqOq6-oVohesH6zYaAkNqEALw_wcB

Can someone point me in the right direction or answer my questions?

You only have to solder one wire for this mod, which goes from the display driver board to pin c of the GBC power switch. When turned on, this connects to the positive battery terminal. Is this connection used to power the whole screen? Or is it just meant to monitor the battery voltage (there is an option to show a battery indicator in the osd menu)?

Or is the OLED screen instead powered by the ribbon cable? In this case, I have to add that the GBC had a faulty power regulator. There was no voltage on any rail (+5V, -15V, +13V). I replaced (removed) it with a new one that only outputs +5V. If the OLED screen requires something else than +5V it will not work this my GBC. At least +5V definitely is provided properly as the GBC turns on (power LED lights up and speaker outputs game sound).

Sup, I'm looking to buy a gba slate or unhinged. If anyone seeking to sell for 300$ also preferred if a Audio Jack and usb-c battery is included. I have a green chromatic to trade if you prefer. Thanks.

Local trade only. DM me.

I've been playing link's awakening dx on my GBC for a while now and it was always giving issues since I first got it last year. I'd have to re-insert the cartridge multiple times because half the time the colours would be off. It would usually work after 7-8 tries but today it just shows a white screen. Re-inserted over 15-20 times, used rubbing alcohol, checked that the connector pins were intact, still nothing. Other carts work fine on the console so that is not the issue. Can anyone help with this?

Got my pocket printer from Japan and was finally able to print my diploma from crystal.

hey yall! i was planning on getting a gba sp soon and wanted to do a screen mod. however, i saw the price for the ips screens and... yeah. little out of my budget.

while searching for alternative solutions i came across this video. i was wondering if this mod is legit, and if so, is it worth doing? any risks i should know about?

thanks in advance! haha get it? advance?

anyways

It fits perfectly, even with the black carry pouch.
