In the quest to update my gameboy color to a screen with a backlit LCD so I could see what I was playing, I ended up making quite a few because 1. I love to solder and upgrade electronics, and 2. I couldn't decide on the colors! But there is no way I will ever be able to play with all of these simultaneously, so perhaps you'll enjoy the upgrades that I've done to the GBCs as well?
p.s. I have no idea how we could see anything on the original screen - it was so dark!
Upgrades:
- Backlit LCD screen 25% bigger than the original GBC screen
- White glass lens (laminated LCD from Funny Playing)
- Touch sensor that you use to change screen brightness, and the pixel mode of your preference
- The glass lens has an LED lit area behind the "GAME BOY COLOR" logo which you can customize to the color of your choosing
- Brand new teal front shell and white back shell + stickers for the shell (Note: Front shell is more of a teal light blue color, rather than a light blue that was picked up by the camera)
- Brand new buttons & button pads
- Installed a new speaker (from Funny Playing)
- Motherboard has been cleaned top to bottom as this device is over 20 years old
Also Includes:
- Light weight waterproof & shockproof protection and storage box
- Illustrated instructions on how to change the screen position, screen brightness, pixel mode, and LED colors
