A scary Game Boy MOD 

90s/80s type of editing 💀

This is so chill and interesting at same time! Perfect music. Thanks for your videos :)

I'm glad I found this. Nice channel!

Intro is a little loud, imo. But fun to see younger folks captivated by "retro tech" and enjoy repairing and refurbishing them! Curious what other projects you'll decide to do.

What's with the Dallas opening credits? All it's missing is you quickly turning your head and flinging your hair in mock surprise at being filmed. I love it, haha

a massive cornetto portafortuna to bring luck to the player is too funny, it's such an italian thing to do that I just saw it and went "yeah that makes sense"

When it comes to Retro-Computing, i like watching reviews on games like "Prince Of Persia", Wolfenstein 3D, Biomenace... No one talks about BioMenace dos games 🙄

That attic reminds me so much of the log house I used to live at. It was close to a train railroad and it shakes whenever it passes. 😆

Great video, inspired me to get back to my Gamecube mod i had planned during the pandemic. You have a very clear and calm technique, pleasing to watch and listen. I hope you keep making content. I've subscribed.

I love your passion!!!!

Subscribed! This was so nice to watch.

New to the channel, greetings from Mexico City :=)

This video has given me some great ideas to upgrade my own GBA. Thanks for sharing, looking forward to more videos. 👍

Please more video like this , just relax and good

I found my new favorite channel! Keep bringing retro content

I know there are others that do this, but i would like to see you mod an ipod. Love your channel!

Good look with your channel.🎉😊

I have heard of people doing things like this but have never seen it first hand. Very interesting and fun to watch!

It’s really cool that you can adjust the brightness that way, it makes me wonder what other neat things are possible with screen mods like this. Since custom circuitry is already required to convert the video signal, you could probably make a mod kit that watches for a specific button combination, and then takes a screenshot and saves it to an SD card or something. EDIT: You would already have full control over the video signal, so maybe you could even have a video overlay when you take a screenshot, that says “screenshot saved” and how much room is left on the SD card. …maybe I should stay away from writing novels in the comment section 😅

I am glad you are making these vidoes i would love to see more women repairing gadgets.

no one can pronounce gameboy like you do, i could watch you say gameboy all day long 😂😂❤

I was never a console gaming sort of guy though I appreciate the modding of them as a friend of mine heere ia Australia does screen replacements for the Lynx consoles. Nice work and it looked really good when you finished.

Great video! Keep it up!

You have such cool videos! And a cool hobby! By the way, I like the music at the end :)

The intro reminds me of "Dallas" from the eighties.

Good job! I wish my soldering was that neat.

Absolutely mesmerizing content. Modding electronics is so fun. Very good content. Subscribing.

I've done a few of these, also with rechargeable battery. I think my favourite handhelds to mod/recap are gamegears, with bennvenn IPS screens - they turn out amazing!

I was doo this same thinks when i was young.😄

Awesome❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great video!!!!!

Great Content !! Glad to see some new faces in the retro modding scene !

Is amazing that you doing Greetings from Uruguay

amazing !!! please more videos.

Very nice and clean work

@2:24 The cornicello keychain mod is what i really came here for! Haha I love it. It's an Italian mod.

Wow, I need to practice my soldering. Subscribed.

Very nice mod! I remember back early 2020 a friend of mine was getting rid of his older consoles, and asked me if I wanted his GBA by any chance. If I remember right, it was a grey model as well, the screen was completely damaged though and the console didn't power up at all. I thought it would be nice to see if I could make it work again. The power issue was just the switch that needed contact cleaner, that was encouraging! So I went ahead and got this exact same IPS screen replacement kit. Plus I got a translucent orange case as well. Looked like brand new, and worked well. I just tried it again now, I don't play it often at all to be honest. The power button has issues again, so I might have to replace it this time, but I'll see if I can take it apart to clean it thoroughly.

Great job, keep going, your channel will explode soon! And I don't mean explode as in combust and burn lol

Love your shirt.....best star wars series ever

I loved the video and I have subscribed here !!!

Your intro and outro are as cringe-worthy as the 80s themselves... it's *so* authentic. Also, you are brilliant, but *strange*... I'm genuinely fascinated.

Excellent neat work! You brought it back to life! Molto carina, molto talentuosa;)

Looks great!

Duuuude this is amazing!!

young lady you get style points very cool channel good luck!

When I was in school we did some fun mods. I remember reverse engineering a NES controller and wiring it to a regular serial plug, and hacking together a linux driver for it so we could use it for emulators. Those were simpler times.

Thumbs up for the channel and thumbs up for the T-Shirt. "This is the way". :-)

This was so relaxing to watch.

so cool

Keep up the videos and restoration / repair videos. It is amazing to see young girls like you to be interested in technical stuff and share your parents' passion and hobbies, I have a daughter who is 6 months old and I hope she will enjoy soldering, fixing stuff like his father does. Your hand movements are so soft and gentle, you may also consider making an ASMR playlist too with lesser audio and narration. Btw, your hair reminds me of the Atari logo 😂

I love this! It's always great to see more people who love tinkering with electronics like I do. :) Hope to see many more videos and hope this channel takes off! Easy sub from me. ^_^

Neatly done! That kit looks like it was a little fiddly, but you made good work of it - you have a deft touch with placement of adhesive elements, and with the iron.

Love the Atari Logo

I was terrified.

That’s a dope working space I wish I had that

Nice video. I also installed this mod a few times and I have some advise and feedback for you. You forgot to put in the plastic piece which goes on the power led. Now there is a hole at the power led. This also happens to me a lot. Also I'm not sure how much you are planning to use this Gameboy, but I have noticed the original A, B button, D-pad and button membranes are much more comfortable to use than the ones which come with these cases. So if you use it a lot, maybe it is worth it to swap the buttons and membranes with the originals. If you put back the original D-pad, you have to make sure the orientation is correct (it is easy to put it incorrectly). Basically if you look at the D-pad, there is an indentation at a corner of the D-pad. This indentation has to face bottom right when you are looking at it from the front.

Great video! Also glad to see more women interested in retro tech! Can't wait to see more content.

My guess is that the previous owner only wanted to do a mod and not started to do one. Given how messed up the case was that person probably sourced it like that even with that keychain too wanting to do a custom case mod of sorts not just a swap. But never got the chance to do the project. Reason could be that the games for this are hard to come by, expensive or often broken too so the person simply gave up. Especially today, I barely see these listed in Europe. Also the mod sellers some are hard to be trusted, plenty of scams going around and for something reputable you have to pay up more. I been in these situations too, wanted to mod certain handhelds then realized games that I want are hard to come by and there is next to no one in my region who would buy a modded console or even these. The games I bought also were broken or broke on me. Mods expensive by the time comes to me etc. So lost interest and was busy with other things so I sold all those instead of hoarding and waiting for "the right moment" rather give others a chance who actually can make use of it. Like you for example. So it's nice to see when someone fixes these old devices. Especially today when we live in a no-repair and toss away era. With that said hope you also didn't tossed out the old case because that also can be used up for a custom case mod project. I personally was always more interested in old PlayStations so since I had a modded PS2 from back in a day and refreashed few of my PS2s through the years, I didn't needed anything else next to that since it can run emulations up to that PS2 era and that is basically all I ever need. I might look into modding a PS3 but time will tell ... right now "life" have other plans for me ...

Awesome video. :) ...I have only small recommendation / suggestion : to shorten the intro. It is over 60sec long and I can guarantee that everybody is pressing LLLLLLL and buffering :)

Would be cool if you could do a few handheld emulator builds, maybe with retroarch

I hope I can fix mine old GBA like how you do at one day :'), great work! But how could you find those quality new parts?

A little advice on putting back the screws. Once you screw first one on a side then go to the opposite side for the next one, that is the proper way.

I USED TO GAME IN MY PARENTS ATTIC THAT LOOKED JUST LIKE THIS! I even had the same HP keyboard harvested from an office PC :') Oh the memories... I miss Microsoft XP :(

Nicely done, although you did not do a Backlight Mod but a complete backlit IPS Screen and Case swap...

holy crap, you're pretty. Holy crap, long intro and outro. Love the subject matter tho

Ciao Sayaka sama, very datiled restoration, it's nice that you explain every step of the repair. It is obvious that you have a profession in your hands and a lot of passion - super positive. Neatly composed videos, I like the intro with the white/black title. Retro Luv - You have a wonderful world. I was able to learn a few things from you. Grazie Don't burn your finger tips, use tweezers or tiny pliers, unless you like thick skin insulation like a construction worker ;) I wish you every success in your studies and a bright professional future. Tu prendi sub. Saluto

I rarely play gba, but I've modded 3 or 4 by now. I'm not sure why, but it's one of my favorite things to do

Great very nice mod😊

I would like to send my Dreamcast to you to fix, the VGA output is coming out with a pink image, but you are too far away.

You from Italy ? Hehe I would never imagine , cool chanel tho

Was this edited on a mac with iMovie? I used to make LEGO stop motion animations and put the scenes together in iMovie, and the title scroll of this video has music that sounds like Apple’s free stock songs… Nice video btw 👌

You're cool!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍

Very nice! I've been thinking about upgrading a GBA. This looks quite doable! Thanks! I like the C16 in the background too.. Is it upgraded to 64 KB?

Ah there's this mod that's both an IPS screen and also an HDMI out... I want to try that. It would be fun to play on the TV. I think that screen is barely more expensive than this, but the videos up by macho nacho probably have the info :D

Hello. I've enjoyed your videos this morning, thanks. Much as I love the show titles in this video it might be best to remove the last part of the titles to protect your privacy - you should be able to do this using YT's built in editor without having to re-upload the video. I think your channel will grow quickly as your skill at repairing, modding, and producing video continues to develop : )

Ooo. You changed Gameboy into Gamegirl. ha ha Very nicely made video though. Keep making videos. It is always nice and welcoming to see young females into electronics. ☺️☺️

What got you into electronics? Would love of my kids to explore like this but have no idea what might spark that curiosity for them.

Looooooooooove!!!!!!! :) xoxo

👍

Kirbyyyyyy 💖💖💖

I modded my GBA in a similar way. Only issue I see is the screen flashes bright at regular five minute intervals. It's not a biggie, but kind of annoying. Overall the bright, clear screen replacement works much better than the default GBA screen in that I can actually see what is going on now. Any screen flashes with your kit? I never soldered up the brightness controls on mine and I am happy with the mid range brightness.

💯

Was the person who gave you this GBA Andy's neighbor from Toy Story?

You make me want to learn how to solder

I did two and used the DMG looking shells. I gave one to the Boy and it dissapeared very fast. I still have mine. I had good luck with them but for some reason my Gameboy Color mod went dark. 😕 I still haven't fixed it. It may be Capacitors or something. IDK????

scary mod is scary

Could I have the link to the kit, please?

I did this mod with a real GBA SP backlit screen, and it worked fine, but the screen itself developed a fault. Now it flickers when I use it, even after I put the screen back into a GBA SP. Sadness!

Very cool and detailed instruction but its a retro console doesnt mean your video and yound quality should come out of 1985

Just want to add one thing - never say "LCD Display", say "LCD" or "LC Display", because "LCD" is "Liquid Crystal Display", and hearing "LCD Display" in my head sounds just like "Liquid Crystal Display Display", and that makes no sense at all. (:

Ciao.

Cool content, but why a 15 year old is talking like a 55 years old electro-nostalgic passionate, my brain's melting.

I'm paranoid but is there deepfake or some IA stuff made for the face ?

Supernerd

:))!!!

i need a girl like this in my life 😆☺

jesus fucking hell, where can i suscribe my simping contract?

ur cute >///

🤌🤌
