Original Link's Awakening Manual (lemmy.world)
Won this manual at a Good Will charity auction. Just wanted to share it here in hopes that it would make some of you smile as big as I did!
Golden Sun via 2DS (lemmy.world)
This game was so much fun in highschool. I never purchased the Lost Age way back then, but I saved my password for decades with the intent to pick it up eventually. I was pretty ecstatic about the games being released on Switch Virtual Console, but playing The Lost Age on the Switch… It just isn’t the same....
Avoid Aliexpress FRAM Upgrade (lemmy.world)
Bought this little kit for a few dollars on aliexpress awhile ago figuring it was an interesting project. I would not recommend it and I’ve already revered back to stock....
Technically not a Game Boy, but why are there literally zero aftermarket 2DS shells?
DS Lite? Yes. DSi XL? For sure. 2DS XL, 3DS and its New and XL variants? You bet. But not a single 2DS aftermarket shell. Single backplates are sold here and there but not the whole assembly....

3D printed custom shell and label for Pokemon '97 Reforged (midwest.social)
If you haven’t given this romhack a shot, it’s worth a go. It tries to recreate the original 1997 demo of Pokemon Gold/Silver from Nintendo SpaceWorld....
This DIY Kit Could Turn Your Game Boy Color Into a Mini Gaming PC (gizmodo.com)
The ReBoi kit promises to replace the Game Boy’s guts and display with no soldering required, but you’ll need to source the Game Boy and Raspberry Pi yourself.

Not the actual use case for this extender, but I think it’s fun that it works on real hardware.

Managed to save a bungled GBA SP board. (lemmy.zip)
Never having had a GBA growing up (or really any gaming system), I recently decided to delve into the retro scene and try to reshell a GBA SP. I bought a board and shell off Aliexpress and a few reproduction cartridges. (VERY) stupidly wanted to test the repo cart without finishing the shell and ripped off the cartridge slot!!!...

Mail Call! (lemmy.world)
Finally got around to tracking down Tetris 2, looking forward to digging into it more. Quick pick-up-and-play puzzle games like this are great on the Game Boy. Happy to add this one to the library!
I accidentally bought my first counterfeit cartridge! It came REALLY close to fooling me...
At least until I opened it up....
I finally got around to making dividers for my Game Boy game collection (lemmy.zip)
It’s just index cards cut up and written on with a Sharpie. But it really makes things easier to find. :)
If you haven't played it, GB Corp is fun game (lemmy.world)
It gives you a nice excuse to use all those different Gameboys.
New Funny Playing Cart Reader/Writer Available To Purchase (funnyplaying.com)
The Burnmaster is no available from their site, along with a MBC3 gbc cart and a 32MB GBA cart. The carts themselves looks like a decent value assuming they work with other writers but the flasher looks a little over priced to me since you have to purchase the case and buttons separately (total $30). The GBxCart RW seems like a...
Link Port On Super Gameboy (lemmy.world)
Moving some of my more interesting posts over from reddit. This is a Super Gameboy with a crystal mod and link Port added. I found this pcb, which is either a recreation or upload of this one. Following the steps there I was able to figure out the resistors and diodes to buy and the pins to use. The resistors on the board are...
