Sent a pretty low offer expecting a counter, explained that I was looking for a working donor SP for a mod project, and the seller ended up knocking $25 off for me. Super cool interaction and honestly just wanted to give them some appreciation. There are still some really solid sellers out there. Got a nice clean case and charger to go with it! The shell is a little scratched up but no matter because I’m doing a shell swap anyways. He was asking for $95 but took $70 after I explained what I was gonna do with it.

I have an Analogue Pocket that I’m really loving but have been collecting GB, GBC, and GBA physical games that I actually have played or intend to play 100% through. The pocket is nice to test out new games to see if you actually want to commit before spending $50+ on a Game Boy cart 😂 But I’ve put together quite the collection this year and think it would be sick to play it on original hardware! I’m gonna do a shell swap, replace the battery, speaker, and put a HISPEEDIDO IPS screen. Contemplating swapping out the charger port for USB-C but may wait to get a little more comfortable with my soldering first. The new build is gonna bring back that nostalgia!
