Hii everyone!! ☺️ Here's my two GameBoys that I have had since I was a kid. I'm thinking for the GameBoy Color to do the screen upgrade with backlight. For the GameBoy Pocket, I will need to do a screen replacement which I want to go with an OEM replacement, or at least OEM spec. I also need to find a battery cover replacement for the Pocket.

Any advice on what to look out for opening these up? And also any advice on where I can start sourcing what I need?

Thanks in advance!

Ah good point!

Yeah I'm leaning towards the IPS instead of the OLED. Can't wait to get Pokemon Yellow cranking on this thing again 😄

    Yeah, I had Blue as a kid :) still love starting it up once in a while.

    I also got the pre-made case with it so I didn’t have to cut up my original childhood GBC. Still the same Colour though :)
