Why you did remove the sticker you could just swap the front part to the japanese back part of the cartridge

Thanks. This might be the only proper guide I found to recap my GBC.

Dont underestimate a magic eraser, they work really well. I would wet it with some IPA first and try some light cleaning at first.

Que increíble

Which do you think is more comfortable to hold?

Hi! One question, how did you export it from the C program to the actual gameboy? Thanks!!

It’s a fake game. The game never released in the us only japan got Pokémon green

Perfect! I just did this and I saved a Pokemon crystal! Thank you!

Is this possible to do with the GBA games? Like is it possible to create the "ultimate version of Emerald" using this method?

what about noise in headphone jack?

I got a small 13in crt TV with built in DVD player. It works great for gaming. I do occasionally watch some older anime and other shows on it. Cause they look better on it and it plays well into the nostalgia factor

the black bob indicates it's a bootleg. aaand that's why you don't buy fake games.

I just completed this mod based on your videoand it came out great! I was lucky enough to have someone sell me a non-functioning U.S. copy and I scored a working Japanese copy for just $16. Only thing was I had a load of trouble trying to detatch the chips with the fine point solder tip, but switching to a chisel tip made it waaaay easier for me. Anyway, thanks for this! Awesome resource!

Very cool stuff! Have you tried gameboy studio?

Hey Sean, I actually came across an old Best Buy catalog from 2003, around the time this Daewoo model was new; they ran for $139.99 brand new. It was definitely a budget brand, but you can’t argue with the picture. Did you still have any CRTs left?

Cool, do you love the Analogue (it can play everything I hope they have OLED now) more or the most advanced modded Game Boy Color w/ OLED, metal buttons and metal shells, USB-C, Bluetooth module (they don't make it anymore)? Thank you God bless you.

Please speak up.

Nope Jpn cartridges were not coloured!

It’s all fun and games until we hit run.

what's the name of the device to transfer GB camera to computer?

I love how your mic makes this disassembly sound like a horror game with how loud everything is

does the gameboy color screen fit on the gb boy motherboard?

Is it possible to do in a GBA game? Like pokemon Ruby?

Hope your doing well brother, miss your videos. Your one ofbthe reasons i got into GB mods a number of years ago.

I love what you've done, and I wish I had the time in my life to do more photography in general- this at least once! I appreciate that you knew the official color names of the GameBoy Color variants. Very cool, man.

What’s the device for the sd card called?

Pretty cool stuff

What does an English one look like? Not us

Spinach green is the only acceptable color for a Gameboy!

thats so cool, it really enhances the images :o would have been awesome if nintendo had been able to program the color combination into the original hardware, they could have sent out little color filter cards for kids to use

Do they have the option for a NES controller? Sense it's only 2 button on the gameboy color.

got me jamming in my chair with that intro lol

This is crazy! Awesome stuff man, thanks for sharing :D

I am the owner of this now. The guy I bought it from sent me this link. Still works great

I'm not exactly a fan of packing the charging board in with the battery. Those TP4056 chips can get pretty warm when charging a battery from flat, and while it's unlikely to cause the Li-PO to catch light, having one spot constantly getting toasted is likely to reduce the batteries overall lifespan. On the original pocket there's just enough room to fit a TP4056 on the other side of the board between the D pad and B button. You need to chop off the middle motherboard mounting post, but it still works fine without that, and this also gives you that screw hole to feed the 6 wires neatly through to keep them away from the button contacts (A small amount of heat shrink tube around all the wires at that location is a good idea). To mount the charger to the motherboard you can just use a couple layers of car body double sided trim tape to lift it up away from where the button rubbers fit. Putting the charging board there is also pretty cool if you have a transparent case because you can see the charge indicators through the front of the case. I'm pretty sure this same approach would work on a GBC.

You should have put a solder blob for the ground of bivert mod instead that silly cable. Also two cables for backlight can just be shorter.

Is it possible to change the chip that stores save files on these games?

Very useful video that I followed.One tip for others that I did not realise. I did everything but then found the inverter inverted image to be the polar opposite of what it should be, removing it corrected it. It turned out that I had put the polariser at the back the wrong way around - I thought I had put it in correctly to be dark, but I had tested it without passing it behind the original screen which is the only way to show the true orientation

This is absolute comedy gold, and I don't even know if its a bit or not lol. Either way I fucking love this video.

I've been thinking for a while to do this, but I was wondering if you can still trade with American/Japanese copies respectively, because that would be completely amazing

what id like to see is a DMG with game boy color back lite mod so that I have an easier to hold hand held console with the colorization of the original game boy while being back lit. the one true god of the DMG

Cringe. HD TVs are better and playing on emulator on pc is free 😎

Still the pride of my collection.

I fill the membrane circle with uv light glue and cure it then perfection

Is this topic still a thing? I have a question! Is this possible to without soldering, like by connecting the cartridge to a pc and dump a English rom?

If I wanted to play my cartridges, I would've just grabbed one of those modded GBAs or a DS. I never owned a gamegear or genesis. So I'm fine with software emulation. Retro handhelds like the RP3 plus(the 4 pro had a shitty QC right now) and AYN odin 2 are far more capable. Streaming, native android gaming, browsing the web, a wider and more powerful selection of systems to emulate. Lots of channels raving on the FPGA like it's the second coming of jesus. Well as an electrical engineer, I just don't see that huge advantage worth raving about. The pocket is just not worth all the trouble of getting it. Don't even get me started on the price.

You've got the best hobby, having all these consoles and stuff.

I want to back-light my gameboy colour but I have no skills for this :(

Are these ribbons still available?

can i connect it to a crt tv?
