I like the way you always show the errors, breakages, problems. It makes me feel so much better about my own experiences.
-
I felt actual pain at 5:47. Broken screens are a complete nightmare.
-
Note to viewers, Boxy Pixel will not replace a broken screen for you if you put it inside a shell (even if you don't use the adhesive) or solder the touch sensor. Do a screen test on the table with the bare minimum. I ended up having to buy a replacement elsewhere.
-
Congrats on this build man. Looks modern with an exquisite feel, and and the reflective feeling is nice!
-
the cartirdge sticking out is a no deal for me, everything else seems real nice (minus your broken screen haha)
-
Honestly, I'd prefer something plastic. Also that proud cart in the back is a deal breaker.
-
Absolutely beautiful mod. My biggest gripe I think is the fact that you have to completely remove the IR from the GBC.
-
Nice build, shame about the cart sticking out, this actually puts me off doing this build as I was looking for a metal shell build next, but this won’t be it.
-
Couple of the small criticisms! Like the giant hump on the gameboy's back. The Quasimodo Boy Two gameboys are two completely different things?
-
Looks beautiful. Wish I had the soldering skills to be able to put it together
-
Man. I'm fairly new to the Gameboy game, currently making my GBZero, but the Gameboy Color with the IPS mods are seems to be truly amazing devices. Tickles my must to have bones. With this shell it's the best it ever gets.
-
The top bezel kinda looks short, maybe because of overall bigger screen frame, which makes it look rather disproportional than gbp Yet this shell is still beautiful
-
That sweep across the desk with the Mac Studio was so slick. Great video!
-
Damn, looks aboslutely amazing! Wish I was as skilled as you at modding!
-
Man how are you that skilled with that gameboy stuff? The gameboys were big part of my childhood but I can't do anything with them except playing on em. Keep going man <3
-
I love the silver, it has a nice look to it
-
Welcome back, Elliot! Very glad to have new content. Hope all is well with the house and bike. Cheers!
-
I bet it has a satisfying weight to it. Love your videos man. Super calming and awesome content about Gameboys and anything else you want to review. Can't wait for whatever you do next.
-
I think I enjoy the videos a bit more when something goes wrong, kinda shows that not everything is perfect and that those kind of things can happen
-
You can really make a load of money modding Gameboys like this! I'm impressed by this mod 🙂
