In this video we install and review the Funnyplaying laminated IPS 3.0 kit and GBA USB-C battery mod. This mod is user friendly for any Gameboy fan because soldering is not required to get up and running--and with the new battery you can stop throwing away money on AA's! I hope this tutorial helps you out!

Hot dog, what a pleasant surprise - seeing this on my YT front page. Looks great, man! Your editing skills are always getting better and more professional. I'm excited to play some Golden Sun on this bad boi.

Thanks for the kind words bud, hope you enjoy! After seeing the result I'm thinking about making one up for myself now. This seems like the best way to enjoy the handheld (tied with an AGS-101 for the purists).

Great video! I’ve never tried this myself but I think you can remove stickers with alcohol, then when it evaporates you can stick it again, I saw it in a lockpicking lawyer video once. He was applying it with a syringe 💉

@FantasticQuack 3 месяца назад

You are correct! And I have done that with good results on older systems (mostly when a screw is hiding under them that you need to access), but since this stuff was brand new I decided it was best to leave it. I figure the imperfect centering would probably go unnoticed by most unless they're real sticklers like me ;)

@@FantasticQuack I wouldn’t have noticed if you didn’t point it out! Lol

@AuroraButterflyx 2 месяца назад

Wow the fact that is completely solderless is amazing, I don’t own a soldering iron so something like this is perfect 🤩

@FantasticQuack Месяц назад

I agree, such a cool mod!

I found this video suggestion on my feed and found it very entertaining and kinda nostalgic, i happen to still have 3 gba sp, and since 2 are special editions i was thinking about making also the 3rd one into one. If you don't mind, can i ask why do you have shaky hands? It happens to me aswell when i have to do precision tasks

@FantasticQuack 3 месяца назад

Glad you stopped by! I don't think anything caused the shaky hands I've just always had it, but I've never let it deter me from working on very fine/precise things--just have to adjust my aim a few times lol. Check out my portable GameCube video for some very tiny soldering! Wish you the best with those SP's!

Great video! Is it safe to use isopropyl alcohol without gloves? Im completely noob.

@FantasticQuack 2 месяца назад

I do it all the time but gloves wouldn't hurt since alcohol does dry out your hands

@GlobeNinetyNine 2 месяца назад

Amazing content, subbed!

@FantasticQuack 2 месяца назад

Welcome aboard and thanks for the kind words!

@dedpxl 2 месяца назад

I think we should normalise keeping the original case. I think they look pretty good on the GBA.

@FantasticQuack 2 месяца назад

You can keep the original shell but it requires modification to the plastic for the new screen, battery, and USB-C port. So whether you want to go through that extra effort/risk, and if you want a new color scheme on the exterior, both play into the decision here. There's no wrong answer, but will say I'm surprised how far these aftermarket shells have come in terms of quality. Thanks for stopping by, cheers!

@pajamakazama5840 27 дней назад

Hey would you happen to know if the battery fits in to a V5 HiSpeedido shell if I just buy the FunnyPlaying battery door? I think the battery is too large for my current mod. Thank you!

@FantasticQuack 25 дней назад

I can't say for sure since I've never worked with one of those shells :/

@Mareka6969 2 дня назад

Can you play it while charging?

@cruziero15 2 месяца назад

Genuine question: why not just buy rechargeable batteries like Enloops rather than going through the trouble of modding?

@FantasticQuack 2 месяца назад

You have to remove those and charge them in a separate adapter. Here you can plug in the GBA just like your phone so the answer is really just convenience.
