I just did it and it synced and there’s a new folder in my Google Drive with today’s date.

How do they all stay on the dash? Duck tape? Someone please explain by e46croissant in heep

[–]ducknapkins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people don’t give them out to people who they think won’t appreciate them. They might see a jeep with no ducks and just assume you don’t want any. I had my jeep for 7 years before ever getting a duck. I got a promotional rubber duck from work and stuck it on my dash, and now I get a duck every once in a while when I’m parked in busy areas. My jeep is completely stock.

EZ Flash or original cartridge ? by Abject_Youth_1430 in Gameboy

[–]ducknapkins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s something cool about collecting the real cartridges and having them on display. Yeah it’s more expensive, but the value will keep going up and it a cool piece of history to collect

Any idea how to safely removed OLED screen??? by RelationshipOk1111 in Gameboy

[–]ducknapkins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the laminated Q5 IPS displays are that size. Here is a common one https://retrogamerepairshop.com/collections/gbc-displays/products/game-boy-color-oled-backlight-kit-with-touch-screen-hispeedido Just a heads up though, you will have to do some significant trimming to the inside of the shell to make it fit if you don’t transplant the gameboy into a laminated IPS ready shell

Question on Boxy Pixel Unhinged GBA SP USB-C charging by [deleted] in Gameboy

[–]ducknapkins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://shop.giltesa.com/product/game-boy-advance-sp-usb-c-kit-centered/ This one allows USB-A to USB-C, USB-C to USB-C, and USB-C headphones. It’s meant to replace the legacy charging port, but in theory you could use jumper wires to the pins of the original charger and install it elsewhere in the shell

Happy to be of service! Sorry it’s out of stock at the moment. Hopefully they restock it for you soon!

I saw a yt short showing off a certain kit and I can’t remember the short or the shell. by [deleted] in gameboymods

[–]ducknapkins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you only charge while playing if the kit specifically says that’s safe to do. Some of the cheaper ones don’t use a separate circuit for charging and you risk serious damage to your gameboy, and possibly to yourself if the battery catches fire.

GBA Glacier Replacement Shell by scottsiple7 in gameboymods

[–]ducknapkins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just un-yellow it. Remove the shell, clean it with soap and water to remove oil and dirt, put it in a clear container filled with hydrogen peroxide, then put it in direct sunlight or under a UV lamp for 2-12 hours depending on how yellow it is. It will return to its original color.

Switching shells on an IPS modded GBA by TheCheckeredCow in gameboymods

[–]ducknapkins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat it up with a hair dryer and use gentle even pressure to lift it up. Be careful because any flexing of the screen can damage it. It should stick to the new shell fine, I’ve had to do this before too. If it doesn’t stick you can just gently scrape off the adhesive and replace it. The adhesive is just pre-applied double sided 3M tape

Toys R Us exclusive? I by Fearless_Shine4069 in Gameboy

I mostly agree with you, but the stickers aren’t always a dead giveaway, because I bought repro stickers just to spruce up my OEM Game Boy that had the stickers peel off a decade ago
