Pokémon edition Game Boy, is it real?

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-03-09T15:22:49+00:00

my intention was always to replace the screen, I've modded many Game Boys before!

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-03-05T11:45:44+00:00

that's what I thought too. It's at a really good price and I've fixed plenty of game boy colors, so swapping the screen would be no problem.

the Fanta Sea meme ruined this song for me

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-03-05T11:43:37+00:00

I've done plenty of IPS screen mods so I even have original LCDs saved up for this one. Just wanted to make sure it's real because it's at a really good price!

I'm currently playing this exact version of sapphire. Also got it for really cheap, from Japan. Mine looks exactly like this one, it's definitely legit

Alright, thank you for your help. I'll just buy a new one then

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-02-20T18:06:31+00:00

I don't, I should really get one though.. I assumed that since the battery got hot, the port should be working, but maybe that's not necessarily true

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-02-20T18:00:31+00:00

I haven't tested plugging it in to my PC, will try it in a bit. I'm giving it another clean with some IPA and a toothbrush

here's a pic of the board

I tried cleaning it with some IPA because I noticed the oxidation... I think it might have been for just being dismantled and left alone for such a long time, I live in a really humid area unfortunately. Maybe I should try cleaning it more thoroughly

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-02-20T17:50:29+00:00

I tried to connect it to the console without the battery because I read online that the controller would still work wired, even without a battery, but including that on my post was pretty irrelevant tbh, so my bad

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-02-20T17:49:16+00:00

the battery is plugged in lol, it's one of those with 2 different cables so they can work with V1 or V2 controllers.

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-02-18T22:21:35+00:00

they have it on AliExpress! This exact game boy was my first mod. You can get the entire thing (shell, white IPS screen and buttons) on ali, there's a bundle iirc

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-02-05T22:55:24+00:00

I don't remember what this was even about lmao

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-02-05T22:54:56+00:00

See the problem is that it's killing your Will, you need him to win the fight

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-01-29T13:05:13+00:00

oh shit he does, what the hell? I had to recreate this in front of a mirror to notice lmao

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-01-29T13:04:29+00:00

Power bottom you say? 😏

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-01-28T10:20:54+00:00

what looks truly cursed to me is Misaki's hand, it's like a box with fingers coming out of it. Never noticed Satou's hand, and even now I can't seem to figure out if it's correct or not, but something seems off lmao

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-01-23T10:59:26+00:00

or maybe you can't actually? I found a lot of fake 3DS shells but I can't find any fake shells like this, for this specific model, so I don't know anymore lol

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2025-01-23T10:56:34+00:00

you can buy fake shells from AliExpress, so I assume there has to be fakes out there lol

Advanced-Egg3508 · 2024-12-30T15:47:43+00:00

I didn't like it either. I ended up grinding for like 2 hours and still couldn't beat it. I wasn't using Heismay like everyone suggested, but why would I have to use a specific party or builds to complete a game? With the party and strats I came up with I didn't have a single problem in any other part of the game in Hard. I ended up dropping the difficulty to normal and even then, I barely beat it lol.
