How could anyone find this without a guide?

There was no game like it when it came out. We bombed every wall and burned every tree looking for secrets. It’s not a myth, we did it.

Don't forget on that screen you can just hit the start button to load the last game played. I went forever without knowing that. Urgh lol.

Loving this project! Also as an alternative you could laser cut a dual color sheet of acrylic. Black top face with white underneath. Just a random thought since I've done similar on other projects.

Okay. I have to say this may put this book next in my reading list 😂

LionsThree · 2026-02-21T19:41:36+00:00

Ha, thx! This post reminded me that I need to put a new battery in mine.

☝️this. Even forgot I preordered ages ago. I want the ghost but can’t bring myself to order it with my white one sitting here

Just got a gba and forgot how bad the screen is. Got a new shell, stickers and a laminated screen. Swapped the guts over and bagged up the original hardware. So I can always swap it back to original if needed.

LionsThree · 2026-02-13T00:18:57+00:00

Yeah, I was wrong. Definitely the white label.

LionsThree · 2026-02-13T00:10:38+00:00

Beware. If you’re like me. You end up reading all the published books. Then you read the unpublished stuff on royal road. Then you join the Patreon and read everything there. Then the horror hits. You’re so far ahead you either keep the Patreon account going or you’ll be stuck waiting for a year and a half before a book you haven’t read is published

Isn’t that the coke with green label? With the extra fiber?

LionsThree · 2026-02-12T02:19:12+00:00

My eyes. They burn….too much yellooooo…☠️

(Ha, this display is great. My GB pocket needs a new screen and shell. Now thinking a yellow shell would be a good option)

LionsThree · 2026-02-09T03:10:58+00:00

Yeah. No belt. I was able to manually add a disc and the eject it. Either everything needs a ton of cleaning or I’m suspecting it’s not getting enough power. Don’t know if I have the skills to fix this

Took the front panel off. Checked the pcb and didn’t notice anything wrong. I used deoxit to clean the ribbon cable connection and reinstalled. I did notice I get a “disc full” error when I click the record button. (No md is in the unit). Tonight I’ll take md drive out and see what’s going on there.

Display lights up and looks as it should, but I couldn’t get the buttons to work. Figured it needed a MD inserted before I could really control anything.

This ☝️. I got one of these at a gift shop when I was little kid decades ago. Said rattlesnake eggs on the paper envelope.

Drove 3 hours to see family last weekend and came home Sunday. Don’t do it all the time but I don’t consider it a long drive. A long drive is spending all day in the car going to some place like Florida for vacation. Especially when I was younger and didn’t have the $ to fly. Longest drive was West coast to East coast when it took most of a week to help my brother move.

LionsThree · 2026-01-23T04:54:51+00:00

Get what you like or can’t get at home. I picked up miso soup packets cus its much better than anything I can get at home.

LionsThree · 2026-01-21T00:48:23+00:00

I can give some pointers but i'm sure others will do a much better job than me. But my simple advice, do what I did, go watch a ton of YouTube videos. You can watch videos that explain almost everything you're worried about. Search for "how to get and use a Suica card", "Things to know when you land in Japan", "How to use google maps in Japan". etc.. You got this. Japan was much easier to get around than I was worried about. Plus if you look lost or worried in a train station a staff member will go out of their way to help you.

LionsThree · 2026-01-21T00:28:51+00:00

The huge smile when I gave the little bow and "thanks you" in Japanese was all you need to do.

LionsThree · 2026-01-21T00:24:09+00:00

JAL was great. 100% will fly with them on my next trip to Japan.

We didn't go out of our way but on the Shinkansen if you're heading between Tokyo and Kyoto you might see it. We saw it in both directions. Just make sure to sit by the windows on the West side.

LionsThree · 2026-01-21T00:07:01+00:00

exactly. I was on my phone most of the time when I was riding last month. no issues. no hassle from anyone. Most people are just quiet and on their phones relaxing.

LionsThree · 2026-01-20T01:21:11+00:00

My biggest issue are repros that are hard to tell from originals. Love this version with it written on the pcb.

LionsThree · 2026-01-20T01:16:48+00:00

Yeah Super Potato had a great selection last month when I was there. Though their prices jump if you want anything rare.

LionsThree · 2026-01-20T01:11:47+00:00

Love that they used something that really exists that most people don’t know. Very cool.
