i would prefer to have a GBA SP with non rechargeable batteries. right now the only option is installing a brighter screen in a GBA regular model, but the design is simply not as good as the GBA SP clam shell design. if there was an attachment that took 4 AA batteries to power the GBA SP that would be perfection.

Important! Please read! There are a number of peripherals that utilize the side holes for grip on the gba sp and original gba. Please consider revising the bottom shell to include those hole grooves for the peripherals. Things like the gba wireless connector or other japanese add ons won't work if you don't modify the case you made for the injection molding. Just an FYI.

I can imagine being in a plane with all lights off trying to play and then flashing everyone around with that bluetooth light. I think it would be nice if it can be turned off. otherwise, maybe some shell work to encase or direct the light in a specific direction, preferably downwards. Keep the awesome work!

This is all kinds of awesome but had you considered taking advantage of the extra room to solve the headphone jack TRRS problem? I'm pretty sure an SPDT audio jack (and there are some small profile ones) would allow you to use audio ground for the R and L channels, while also shorting the regular ground with the speaker mute pin when headphones are inserted in order to kill the speaker. This is how the headphone dongle works internally! The old TRRS jack trick shorted the jack's microphone ring with ground to kill the speaker, but doing so means, as you described, you can't use TRRS headphones (which indeed have a separate microphone ring rather than one long ground sleeve to facilitate the trick) and it also doesn't filter DC from the signal path so in turn it damages headphones unless you add capacitors to the separate channel paths

Good effort. I am also modding an SP to add all the mod cons. However, I'm trying not to expand the case (as I carry it everywhere). Here's how I'm going about it: • Using Makho battery. Seeing this new battery uses cables to connect the battery to its connector PCB, you gain some flexibility. Becasuse of this, I was able to dremel away the battery compartment to get more space. • Headphone jack under the power LEDs (seems to be the most popular place to put it). Using Helder's Power Cleaner PCB to avoid noise. Works fine. • USB-C connector can fit between the EXT and link ports. The port has been installed but it not connected. I'm currently waiting for a PCB I designed to make soldering easier. • Wireless charging: After soldering some extension wire between the charging module's coil and PCB, it fits quite nicely thanks to the missing battery compartment; Coil on top of the battery; PCB below. Has not been connected yet as it will connect to the same PCB as the USB-C port. • Bluetooth audio is waiting for when low latency modules are available. I'm planning on using the shell of a wireless transfer pak or a GameCube cable connector to house it when that time comes. That was I can use it with any GBA (or GC GBA Player). Sorry if the comment sounds like a ramble; I'm in bed with a fever.

I don't know if it's possible to add a display output of some kind to it. Feels like that's the only thing missing to make this the ultimate GBA mod

Maybe a dock that accommodates charging and video out for it. And the thicc boy would be the ultimate gameboy ever

This looks promising, I definitely will support it on whatever platform you choose to crowdsource. I’m usually weary of fine soldering, but the flat flex cables really look to make this mod more friendly. I’ll be honest, I’d probably pay for just having the thicker base to have something more to grip onto! The other features are great though.
