oh nooo what happened?
I also put a laminated IPS into my GBA (along with a new case and sparkly buttons) and THAT is an incredible upgrade
I need to put a better screen cover on the yellow one because I didn't realize it's the model without the power light, but thanks!
I think the funnyplaying one requires a lot more shell modifications, but I used one of their custom shells designed for it. The yellow one is an OG shell and I just had to trim 2 spots
funnyplaying uses the contrast wheel for brightness, which is awesome. It has like a billion color options that are a pain to flip through and find the one you like, though. But it has some cool pixel filters. the thing I don't like is that it illuminates beyond the border of the game, which sucks
the most popular one seems to be from funnyplaying (right) and install was pretty simple. Pro The one on the left is I think an older model from cloud game store on aliexpress
I do really wish there was a mod with a modern unlit LCD for low-power outdoor play and nostalgia's sake
There are also mods to like invert the polarization or something and that's supposed to make it better? And I'm not sure if replacing the capacitors would help (another thing I messed up once 😬) but honestly I see why the IPS screens are so popular
