Upgrading a Gameboy Advance with IPS 3.0 Screen and USB C Battery Mod

Upgrading a Gameboy Advance with IPS 3.0 Screen and USB C Battery Mod

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!

All the accessories and replacement parts mentioned in this video can be purchased from the awesome retro game store – www.eebuys.com

    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.

    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 💉

    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

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

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

  6. @pajamakazama5840

    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!

  7. i love these types of videos, but theyre almost always shorts. long form is where its at lets gooo

  8. @carissad2696

    Where did u buy the pink start/select buttons? It’s not included in the link for GBA buttons you included.

    I have shakey hands, too, applying stickers to gameboy cartridges gets pretty intense for me 😂. Nice guide also I just ordered this kit so definitely going to use this as a reference

  10. I bought rechargable aa batterys 5 buks for 4 2100mah 5 buks for charger. Cheaper and twice the mah, 1.2v instead of 3.7v with the aa tho. But no problems untill now. owh and i destroyed a perfect gba motherboard with this mod replaced caps and fuse but its dead. Had to buy a replacement. So remember this takes more juice and can destroy your board

  11. Regarding the shaky hands, I am no expert on this, but you can try to take Zinc with Vitamin C, it should improve it

    I watched countless videos and finally came across yours. This was the perfect video!!!! Thank you soooo much

    5:30 kind of wondering about this now. I didnt bend my ribbon for the touch sensor. The video tutorial I followed by the mod supplier, 'Handheld Legend' did not fold it. I was wondering if there was any difference anyway, because I noticed the piece of tape? on the back of the ribbon. Everything stills works fine anyway

  14. Magnífico tutorial! Te quedó una GBA muy bonita y funcional, además de mostrar todo el proceso paso a paso. Me encantan este tipo de videos de modificaciones de la GBA, saludos desde España!

  15. My screen ribbon will not seat in the cable ribbon that comes from the mobo. The little brown hinge won't shut. Any suggestions?

  16. Awesome upgrade! My OCD went into defcon 1 staring at that tiny piece of plastic film the whole time, but I'm glad it was removed. I can rest easy now 😅

  17. Crazy! But what about the shell? I hear that these replacement shells often don't fit perfectly in one way or the other, or feel like they're made of lower quality materials. What is this one like?
