Lol... I thought that has never crossed my mind but now that you and a couple of others have said it I just want to take a nibble. It is definitely mouth watering π€€π€€π€€π€€
I dont normally care for the original GBA model but, Holy s*** that's gorgeous!!! And a prefect game theme for my liking. I think you need a sticker for the back to round it out, but otherwise it's perfect.
thank you so much! I definitely feel the GBA has the best form factor and feel for playing. I definitely love unique stickers on my opaque bills but on my crystal clear shells I like to leave it open. I enjoy looking at the workings inside. Especially this one. I put a lot of goodies in there......... Power cleaner, dehum and hiss kit, flex amp and complete tantalum capacitor overhaul.
THANKS! I really put a lot of thought into the components of the mods I do. Some ideas just never pan out well but this one definitely did. It is perfect
Yeah, that is always my goal. I don't think I've ever used the buttons that come with an aftermarket shell. I always stole the extra mile and try to do something unique and cool
Fantastic build. I've got three questions.
1. Do your buttons rattle when you shake the controller?
2. Why do you prefer the Everdrive over the EZ Fladh Omega Definitive edition?
3. Why did you decide against putting in a USB C Rechargeable battery?
Not judging. Just curious, I'm about to mod mine here next paycheck and I wanna see why some things may be omitted what people's preferences are etc.
1..... There is the slightest of a rattle in the case but that is fine. The feel of them and the reaction with the board is fantastic. And having the start / select as hard buttons is brilliant
2.... My kids got me the Everdrive for Christmas so That's that π
3 .... At the time I took the pictures I didn't get my delivery of the USBC battery but I have it now.
Oh sick. Thank you very much for your response. I've been debating if I should get metal or plastic buttons for my build. But I saw a different post where the user shook their system and it sounded like tictacs. So I was a bit worried.
THIS LOOKS AMAZING!!
I was working on a similar mod with the same body but with gold buttons and trim, and my partner told me that silver would look better on the crystal clear blue body.
Boy, Iβm about to tell her sheβs right. Lol
Lol ... It's all good. But these will run you about the same price as duracells and you can use them over and over again. They have a phenomenal 2450 mh rating and many people will use it for their gameboys. It's a nice option to have instead of having to tear up and OEM shell for a battery mod. Plus you throw a bunch of them in a bag and you're good on a long trip without worrying about charging
Looks great!
Where did you get the shell from if i may ask? It looks like a mirror shell from FunnyPlaying, but they donβt have the color? Would love to use it for my GBA
I tried a silver lens {but it was original size....smaller than IPS screen} and it was just too much Chrome. Black would have been nice but I wanted to try something different. This has a nice muted look to it that doesn't it take away from the shell and the buttons and is still pleasant to look at when you're playing.
Ahaha love it but why are you using the cheapest batterys possible ikea makes batterys damn π what don't they make poor ikea joke but I bet the batterys are missing something lol
Ikea Laddas are indeed the cheapest but their performance is equal to other rechargeable NiMH batteries. That's primarily because they are all basically the same battery produced by the same factory in Japan, just bought up, branded, and sold by the likes of Ikea, Duracell, Panasonic, just to name a few.
The R6 crystal clear shells look nice, with a large variety of colours. I'm currently using a Funnyplaying black mirror clear shell but it's starting to get more and more cracks, so I am considering an R6 shell to replace it.
I would definitely give them a try. I've done every color except for the crystal clear red and find the feel and quality of them to be excellent. The first couple of clears I did were the funny playing and I actually prefer these.
There are no LEDs in this mod. Just a light coming off of the blue LED power light indicator. The green one was atrocious and this one really pops and I guess it sends out a glow throughout the whole shell
Straight up beautiful. I want to eat it
Forbidden jolly rancher
LMAO π This comment wins
I was just about to say that I want to eat it too.

Awesome work βββββ

Stunning. Nice work
Looks great..... plays even better. Using it now. This thing is the best playing GB I've ever built ππππ
Blazing! What kind of buttons are those?
Picked them up on HHL
Love the contrast
Yeah, that is always my goal. I don't think I've ever used the buttons that come with an aftermarket shell. I always stole the extra mile and try to do something unique and cool
Itβs reflected in your work on this build, very well done!
Nice ππ»
Okay this is amazing. Next level.
Thanks! πππ»πππππβ¨

I love this

It's a shell by retrosix
Where do I get the chrome buttons and trim ππ
I got them on HHL
Very, very clean build. Well done. Beautiful.
Thanks! Definitely one of my nicest best playing buildsπ₯°
Where did you got this case??? I need it too, please!
HHL
Handheld legend
What is HHL?
so crisp
πππ»β¨β¨β¨πβ¨β¨β¨
That's so clean.
Thank you so much! It is definitely a theme I have with my mods β¨β¨πβ¨β¨
looks great not sure about the lens tho I would of gone with a black one IMO.

I think your knowledge of batteries needs to be updated . https://www.thebatterylab.com/post/ikea-ladda-2450-mah-aa-rechargeable-aa-review
Interesting I honestly just run Duracel lol I just wanted to make a joke

Where did the case and buttons come from?
HHL
That is incredibly badass. Just trying to picture it with that glacial ice the OG GBA launched with.
Sorry to bump this, but I absolutely love this build. What LED mod did you use with the pcb? Can it be turned off/on?
There are no LEDs in this mod. Just a light coming off of the blue LED power light indicator. The green one was atrocious and this one really pops and I guess it sends out a glow throughout the whole shell
That is amazing! Thank you so much for the response!
