I cant wait for mine to arrive. My GBA mobo is in bad shape, broken traces, corrosion, unresponsive buttons. It’s good to keep these as spares until you find a Gameboy in bad shape. Till then put these in a frame for display.
@@-Chrome-es i did it twice. First time was from scratch and it worked great but it didn’t look all that great and there was a lot of excess solder and leftover flux. And the buttons weren’t as responsive. I then transfered the CPU and Ram, bios chip what ever that chip is over to the FunnyPlaying Motherboard. It looks so much cleaner plus the motherboard is modernised with various features and there is no need to build it from scratch. Just solder on the chips and your good.
I personally would NOT make any of them - why reinvent the wheel. They are very cool just as they are. Now if you have a unit that with a damaged circuit board from a battery leak, or maybe doing a GBA Consolizer kit (where you have to remove a good bit of parts as part of the build) then I could see it as you would have a clean / beautiful PCB to build on. I do know that someone completely re-engineer the GBA (and I think released the gerber files so you could also get on of those to work from)
Should i do it? Should i make my own?

yeah i think the better option is to keep them as they are! I've also heard about the GBA PCB work that was done
i hope you build one from scratch or at least rebuild a broken one
This is really interesting!
Un PCB para los cartuchos de game boy
Yes but only make one. Leave the other one and display it
I thought you were actually going to start building a Gameboy. What a waste of time it was watching this video!
or you just buy gbc for 20 USD and enjoy.
i could do that yes, although i dont think theyre 20 USD anymore haha
I buy Broken GBs of all kinds and repair them. You're looking at least 40 for a broken GB RN
Nice
