The reason the battery has to be charged when the device is off is because the GBC lacks the circuitry required to cut off the battery while charging, it would discharge the battery while it's being charged and the effects could range from ruining the motherboard to the battery exploding.

15:40 White light is een perfect mixture of the three colors red, blue and green. Blue has a higher intensity so if all led's are the same size the blue could very well be overpowering the other colors creating the blue instead of white.

If you're reusing the stock membranes, they are a light blue. For an LED mod you really need to get clear membranes for the full effect, but new membranes take a few months of regular use to break in.

This is quite impressive. For everyday use though personally I'd just get an IPS screen and a pre cut aftermarket shell to make the mod entirely drop in. HDMI out feels more like a gimmick anyway. As to power supply i find two sets of rechargeable AA batteries do the job perfectly fine. Any money unspent after that can go towards a decent flash cart.

My issue with these modern enhancements is that I'm one of those sticklers who prefers the way in which a CRT or LCD screen would blur the pixels creating a softer image. I know a lot of people really want crisp pixels, but it just feels wrong to me. I recently modded my GBA SP with an IPS screen, and that was the first thing I noticed. I wish there were some way to enable a filter to slightly soften the image. Still, that's a slick-looking Gameboy Color! Nicely done and hats off to you for putting in all that work to trim and solder everything.
@LRM12o8

That's why I prefer connecting my NES and SNES via RF over Component out and part of why I prefer a backlight mod over a sharp screen on my GameBoy pocket. NES graphics just look lifeless and bland without the RF noise. I feel like many games (most notably SMB) relied on noise to give texture to the backgrounds or they were simply not able to fill the screen with textures. The SNES has more textures, but it still looks fine through the RF, definitely better than a cheap converter. GameBoy graphics also look quite untextured in a perfectly crisp, high-res image, and I feel like the pixel grid makes the image look more defined on that console. For all other consoles that werw released later, I prefer a sharp, flawless and noise free image though. I've never been a fan of CRTs, I can't stand CRT whine and it's a mistery to me how it didn't make my ears bleed as a child, but it did make me very uncomfortable nowadays.

If you take a heat gun to where you cut clear plastic carefully it turns back clear, Or for that matter any color plastic turns back to its color. Get it tooo hot and it will get too shiney. Just some advice.

With your discount code, all four of these mods would run about $125ish. Not bad. Considering I still have my original GBC and would like to refurbish it at some point. The speaker doesn’t work anymore and needs repair. These mods are cool enough that it makes me want to tear into it, mod it and fix the speaker at the same time.

i dont have an hdmi port but i managed to fit two speakers in the front of mine by replacing the factory power board with a clean power board, leaves just enough room to put a speaker there hardest part is drilling new holes for the sound to come out of, i used an extra shell i had as a template and clamped them face to face then poked the holes through the template shells speaker holes to transfer the pattern

You can make the flex pcb even flatter by holding it down with neodymium magnets. This way ut won't be just flat at the points, it'll be flat everywhere.

@paranoiia8 2 года назад
You could easily modify it to use usb-c/micro-usb instead of that barrel charger... that also could work as port for external gamepad(but that need some custom pcb and some delicate work). Thenuse bigger battery(but it look bad in translucent case) also I remember that there is mod for bigger screen... so yeah, we can go even more with modding.

You should try using a cnc for cutting jobs like enlarging the screen hole. It might be difficult at first to get access, and it's not something people can normally repeat at home, but: 1. You can show how much better the result can be this way; and 2. People will see it's easy and will start looking around for access to cnc themselves at hacker spaces etc. And this way the skillset will become more and more popular and more people will find themselves able to do even more amazing looking mods that look factory made.

That sure is a SERIOUSLY tricked out GBC! I suppose one other con I'd add is that using the HDMI feature pretty much tethers you to your television since you can't use a separate controller like with the consolized GB kits, plus the fact that many HDMI cables are fairly short. Overall though, I thought this build was pretty cool.
@MachoNachoProductions
@MachoNachoProductions 2 года назад
Yes, that’s true. It would be awesome to build Bluetooth controller compatibility into these mods

The case from funnyplaying is much better because the Q5 ips display already sticks to the glass there and thus the gap between the screen and the glass is left out.

One thing I don't really care much on GBC mods is the battery one. The energy density to good Ni-MH cells is about the same, and with those you get to have as many batteries as you want fully charged ready to go, and specially, with zero modding needed. Also nothing impedes you from adding the internal Ni-MH charger as well like with the Li-Ion. The one thing Li-Ion mods got tho is weight.
@MachoNachoProductions

I agree and think quality nimh batteries are a great power alternative. I still use eneloops in some of my consoles.

IDK if they make them anymore, but there used to be really cool chiptune mods for the gbc. I had a gbc with a bunch of mods for that and was the coolest thing. Althought a little bit cumbersome sometimes for gaming but chiptune music is awesome.

I really like the way this looks and seeing I still have GBC PCBs left, I may just do this myself. I'm wondering, would it be possible to use a laminated screen for this? I do like laminated screens :) So now all this needs is bluetooth for an external controller :D

Regarding the charging cable. Pretty sure thats a fairly standard 5v barrel plug to usb adapter. There are a handful of sizes of barrel plug available but this is fairly common for weirder stuff (ie I have a shipping scale, external hard drive and a label maker that use the exact same style power cord, might be a different size barrel but yah)

the battery mod not being able to charge when in use is a major set back, I'd like the battery indicator on the screen not look like the pixels are just not turned on(and if that could be turned off), and I'd wonder if a stock/Nintendo branded GBC wall power supply even work with this battery mod. I like a lot of things about this GBC mod setup but those little nit picks would make it pointless. I love the ideas these mods propose but damn Funny play did you have to just goof up the execution. I hope they iron out these inconveniences so this is just a kit cause this mod setup looks sick. And the white leds not showing white would probably be due to the pealessent coating on the shell distorting the color cause in the video it looked like a green dot with a blueish halo.

The batteries not being able to charge while you're playing is a huge minus, plus the power cable not using a standard USB port as well. As for the battery compartment, you should have used a drill to make a clean hole and thread the battery wire through that. The giant cavity with the jagged edges is definitely a mistake.

It still needs BLUETOOTH!!! Someone did it a long time ago, there was a video. Chiptune dayz for those that know... know. It was a DMG. It kept shutting down randomly. It definitely worked if it didnt shut down, and he explained why it would cut off in the video. It was clear and had lights too.
