I've had several and had one or two last YEARS. hands down my favorite handheld. I just did a unhinged mod for one and love it but still miss the flip. Going to re shell and ips another good board I own with a bigger battery to keep one that still has the satisfying flip. They are a NIGHTMARE to work on though. That hinge combined with the paper thin ribbon display cable makes it so easy to ruin your display lol

My favorite GameBoyAdvance is the classic. It has a better grip, big L and R buttons, directional pads and softer action buttons. headphone jack...It just doesn't have a good screen. But even using batteries these days is better. Because every SP I got used has a bad battery. If you get a GBA with a backlit screen, it becomes the ultimate Gameboy

I love the sp. imo it’s the best console ever. It’s compact, yet still large enough to be comfortable, and I love the era of games on it. I also just re-shelled my sp, and found it surprisingly easy. Sure it took a bit of time, but it was straightforward and I didn’t break anything despite having no experience doing it before, and only referring to a guide once. I also have large pockets, but I like knowing that nothing in my pocket will scratch my gameboy’s screen.

As someone who has never touched a solder or let alone replaced a shell on my gameboys prior to doing it. It's really not that hard to do anything that doesn't involve de soldering.

The SP was and is the best Gameboy period. Sure, the clamshell design is a point of failure, but only if cack handedly used, while offering protection to the screen and buttons the standard GBA and Micro don't have. Combined wirh the improved screen, rechargeable battery and greater portability, it's simply a better device all round.

I only just got into gameboy modding a couple weeks back as a friend of mine had a couple and didnt need 2 so i got it pretty cheap, and wanted to install a better screen, now ive fallen down this rabbit hole. From someone coming in with no knowledge, it was pretty easy to work on. Hardest thing was plugging the screen ribbon into the board when reassembling. Other than that it was a breeze, especially compared to modern tech. Most of the things that are covered here i feel are nitpicks. I agree with you on the buttons, sucks you cant work on them really, but other than that i see all of this as a non issue. I grew up with it, and even unbiased i see it as my favorite portable console nintendo made before the switch. Great piece of tech, especially for its time.

Thanks for keeping it real! If you are going to buy an Oem gameboy, get a SP. If you are going to get a modded gameboy get a regular gba. If you specifically want to play gba and dont care for gb and gbc get a ds lite/macro. Sp- backward compatible w/ backlit screen. Also rechargeable. Clam shell. Gba- most comfortable. Battery powered. Easy to modify. Backward compatible. DS Lite- plays ds games and gba. Rechargable battery. Clam shell. Ergonomic. Backlit screen. Emulation capabilities. All gameboys are great. it just depends on what you need. Everyone needs every type of gameboy.

@@JakeSimmons Yep. Thankfully, I figured out the Bic Round Stic trick when the SP was still in stores but even today I see so many people forcing them out without opening to the detent position. There are more videos out there telling people the wrong way than there are videos telling them the right way. It’s obvious from the way you installed them in this video that you know how they work: All the grooves and tabs only align for the hinges to go in/out when the screen is open to a specific position (the one where you normally feel a self-supporting detent).

MY biggest and only issue with the sp is the rechargable battery. THEY ARE SO ANNOYING For ONE REASON. It is insanly hard to find a good condition replacment bettery for one that is actually the correct power. And not only that but if you are getting a gba sp nowadays with no replaced parts its likely that the battery is fully dead and you need to go through a insane hassle to get a new one with the same POWER. It does not make mine any better because the screw is all chewed up. i personally perfer non rechargable batterys for gameboys.

Replacing the battery is one screw….. sounds like just bc your screw is fried is more of a you problem vs the majority of folks doing the same replacement.

My only complaint about the SP is it sucks for playing GB and GBC games, both because the cartridges stick out awkwardly and the games display really small and of course letterboxed due to their different aspect ratio. So while it's nice I guess in a pinch, I much prefer to play GB and GBC games on a modded GBC with a larger backlit IPS screen in the proper aspect ratio. As for GBA games, I'm sort of torn between the classic GBA and the SP. I like the ergonomics of the classic GBA better, but the SP's compact form factor and clamshell design is so satisfying! And it's really not that bad ergonomically, but definitely inferior to the classic design.

Back when nintendo made quality almost unbreakable products, now with the switch the joycon rails fail sometimes the usb c port other times the stick drift other times the srsl board breaks in the joycons other times they dont conect, yep that gba sp is old nintendo quality thats why it works, i dont get why you hate the sp honestly i think its amazing, i respect your opinion but i dont share it, and the hinches is the best hinches nintendo has ever made in the ds and the 3ds is a million times more complex and harder to work on

Thank you for respectfully disagreeing. The biggest thing for me is the buttons failing constantly and how much harder it is to fix compared to the other models :/

Form factor blows. I think people like them because of the screens on them. Also, couldn't we just make a mod to implement membrane switches into the SP?
