Upgrading a Gameboy Advance with IPS 3.0 Screen and USB C Battery Mod
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 июл 2024
- 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!

i love these types of videos, but theyre almost always shorts. long form is where its at lets gooo
I don't really do shorts so you're in luck here! Thanks for watching :)
@@FantasticQuack let’s gooo i’m glad i stumbled across your channel i’ve been loving the few videos i’ve seen
Looks so good! nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent video, thank you for this.
Glad you enjoyed it!
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).
The Best Channel in the World ❤🔥❤❣♥
Wow thank you!
Wow the fact that is completely solderless is amazing, I don’t own a soldering iron so something like this is perfect 🤩
I agree, such a cool mod!
first time watchin ur videos and i love it u earned a sub
Thank you I'm glad you enjoy, cheers!
same brother
Omg what a beauty
Thanks I thought so too!
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 💉
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
I think we should normalise keeping the original case. I think they look pretty good on the GBA.
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!
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
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!
Amazing content, subbed!
Welcome aboard and thanks for the kind words!
Good mod 👍
Thank you!
Where did u buy the pink start/select buttons? It’s not included in the link for GBA buttons you included.
Great video! Is it safe to use isopropyl alcohol without gloves? Im completely noob.
I do it all the time but gloves wouldn't hurt since alcohol does dry out your hands
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!
I can't say for sure since I've never worked with one of those shells :/
Genuine question: why not just buy rechargeable batteries like Enloops rather than going through the trouble of modding?
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.
What kind of tape is that again? I'm new to modding
any double sided tape will work, such as: amzn.to/43LTvX8
Can you play it while charging?
Yes
Wait did you say to let the membrane dry next to a full jug of apple juice?! LOL WTF Why?
It's important
