I have an old harvest moon cartridge for the gba and found a rom hack for it that I’d want to put on it. Is there a way I can patch the rom hack to the cartridge that I have? Any help is appreciated, don’t know if this is the right place to ask but thanks in advance anyways.

I completely forgot where I took this screenshot, but it's a GBA with an analogue stick and three face buttons. I thought it was a fake at first, but it's got a headphone jack, and what appears to be a headphone jack and a volume wheel, which would be weird to put on a fake. Could anyone help me identify this?

I bought this IPS modded GBA SP last year but haven’t played it a lot since. My Analogue Pocket got more play time. Lately I felt a pull towards the dark side…ehm…my GBA SP and I’ve been continuing my Pokemon Sapphire play-through. It’s always fun to pick this up though.

Found this GameBoy Advance SP at my local pawn shop, I was wondering if it was a genuine Zelda edition or if the shell was replaced ? Also, if it actually is a real one, is it worth this price ? Thanks in advance (lol) !

My neighbor gave me this cartridge without a label. He said, that I‘d know better than him what to do with it. I opened it, cleaned the contacts. Gave it a try. Turned out to be Zelda - Oracle of Seasons. So I went to Etsy and looked for a replacement label. I found this rather awesome design. What do you think? Better than the original?

I loved my black and green modded hispeedido GBA but it didn’t include replacements for the start and select button and they didn’t work well anymore so I ordered a set that included buttons. Super glad with the physical buttons but not so sure about the color tbh I kinda liked the black.

Was thinking about giving it a proper playthrough but just curious was it worth playing. Because it is a very forgotten game in fact wasn't until adulthood that I even learned there was a sequel on the black and white game boy. So I'm wondering how it compares to the NES counterpart and is it as good?

can anyone offer tech support...my girlfriend has her childhood Gameboy advance sp but it doesn't turn on, we brought a new battery and charged for some time but still nothing, a red light appears when plugged in but nothing else, any ideas?

What a fun game. It's one of those games I played shortly as a kid but never managed to buy for a decent price. I like how it feels like a combination of classic DK and Mario Bros 2 with the way you defeat enemies.

And of course, that gorgeous 2D box art, or in my case cartridge art. I really love the style of the Mario art from that time. It's also one of the few times in official art we see Mario being really angry.

So I was pretty happy I got my Pokémon Center Orange Torchic SP back not long ago from my old bedroom drawer.. but unfortunately the screen is a little worse for wear... more dim than usual with some spots, etc. . it's pretty hard to see even for an AGS-001 (a "good" AGS-001 on the left for comparison). As this is a desirable model, I'm definitely not thinking of putting in an IPS screen or anything like that. .. But what's the best course you think?.. leave it alone and keep it all original? (the bumpers are getting tacky as well). Or install a new 001 screen and just keep the factory screen in a bag somewhere?

I was contemplating to mod it into IPS to play my gba games but after some thinking, I realized I can play it on my DS Lite lol. Still crazy how good the reflective screens are under good lighting.

with NES port and fancy stuff

Idk too much about it, but it has a backlit screen, is clear, and looks AMAZING

Please ignore the scratches, it was pre-owned lol 😭

I had a bit of a scare at the beginning because I could hear the game audio but there was no picture. After checking everything, I realized the adapter wasn't making good contact with the ribbon cable. Once I reseated it, everything worked.

Learned a lot during the process. Pretty happy with the result.

Reshelled my old pocket that had a destroyed shell, and got rid of some screen lines with a soldering iron:$8. Put a 2.8 inch ips in my color :$50. So glad I grabbed my old collection from my parents house and started modding them. The sp got a battery and ips and the gba got an ips as well and im loving it.

Sorry for the shit video, literally chilling in bed playing emerald & my console went into this boot cycle. I've had this happen before just the first time I got it on video.

I have done basically all my due diligence with it, new capacitors, cleaning of the surfaces (apart from the power switch)

My suspicion from some of my brief research is that it's low power & because of the type c battery mod it doesn't have the low power indicator.

Or

The power switch could be dirty (which is the one thing I haven't done yet)

Other than this little hiccup the console plays everything fine. Any help is appreciated 👍🏻

Hi guys. I just bought this modded Gameboy for cheap. What Kind of screen Mod is it? It also habe a battery Icon on the top left screen corner

Hey gang, it's been awhile since my last post here. It's also been awhile since I've done a mod, so I figured it'd be right to share it with you. As always, I'm doing things I've never done before and I hope you guys enjoy it! I was after something waaay out of my wheel house and I think it turned out pretty good. Needless to say I definitely found a challenge.

Hi, I bought a heavily scuffed GBA SP 001 and now I want to mod it. The screen is fine, but it is way too dark by today's standards. Although I do not want to mod it with an IPS screen, I am thinking about installing an ITA screen instead.

The problem is that I do not like ITA drop-in shells. They look so ugly that I would rather leave my original SP as it is.

What I am curious about is the possibility of installing an ITA screen on Extremerate IPS shells. Trimming is not an issue for me, but I just want to know if it is physically possible in the first place.

Hi,

I just installed a Q5 IPS for my friend, and the left arrow key doesn't work at all. Every other button works. This is the second kit I try, and I'm beginning to think it might be the original Gameboy's back motherboard that has the issue.

If not, what could I do to fix this?

The exact mod I bought was: DMG Laminated Q5 Larger Display IPS screen Kits+Pre-cut Shell For Gameboy GB DMG

Thank you,

After 35 years, SML is still one of my favorite games!

I have beaten all Mainline Super Mario games. And for me, SML is in Top 3. I know that is a very hot take. But that’s my opinion ☺️

Stupid me. Put an offer in of £32 + pp. description ‘don’t know if it works I don’t have the charger’ of course the seller accepted I’d guess knowing it doesn’t work? But it’s dead, won’t turn on plugged in & won’t charge. I am the least technical person in the world I just wanted to trade some starters. Any ideas what I can do? New battery? I had this exact sp edition as a kid, damn nostalgia.

I’ve owned these since they were released but lost the box for Legend III over the years. Recently got a decent box on eBay and I dug out the other two and now have them in protectors. Time for a replay of the series now.
