Yep both versions in stock
so much easier! great video Luke
This looks great, next month I'll hopefully be sending two game gears your way for repair and upgrade (one for the full works, 2nd just for a recap and new housing to keep as original as possible) You also clearly know your trade well, so am sure they'd be in good hands.

Awesome can't wait to work on them
Ordered a v3.0 screen today.
Great, as always! I've bought some of your products for my GG and they are great, guys! I don't know if you already planned something, but getting an old NES from a flea market gave me an idea, are you guys at some point will make a NES power and A/V module? That would be soooo popular, especially if compatible with USB-C cables.
I have 2 va5s at home waiting for a clean screen. Im anxiously awaiting the update.
any updated video for v3.1?
I know it’s not required, but is it ok to remove the transformer with the v2 board?
can a GG with an lcd mod work with a 5v rail only? there is allot of noise coming from the speaker i believe it comes from the power circuit
Is there a video somewhere with your newest kit in a game gear shell going over its features? I want to see how the scaling looks like, is it integer scaled? Does the screen fit as nice in an original shell?
I notice that Dat0 - Dat3 connect to both the top and bottom of r13-r16 on your ribbon there. When wiring manually do these also connect to the top and bottom of each resistor? It doesn't specify on install instructions the exact placement of these connections. Thanks, Great clean screen update!

It doesn't make much difference. If you get speckles on screen or color issues you can try them on top, or on bottom, or bridged
Great Video Luke. Did you get a chance to test the scaling issue with the excellent dizzy collection?

Yeah it does have totally custom size. Not sure how to resolve it. Ideally an automatic detection of overscan data perhaps. Will require logic analyzing and bit of time to test

@RetroSix Thanks Luke for testing.. It does the same with super kick off as well. I have about 40 games and it only those 2 which I have seen the issue so probably an isolated to a small number of games.
Scale from 1-10 how hard is this for the first time?
I have a 2 chip board and clean screen 3.1.0 do i have to do the 3 wire solding to where the screen used to be like your website shows? Or follow this?
Do we still have to cut the 34v wire and remove r29 (r56) and r30 (r57) resistors when installing the new v2 version? I noticed in the video that the 34v wire and resistors are still intact and the site still shows v1 instructions with no updates.

It works with only L2 removed but it's advised still to remove those and switch off 34V on CleanJuice or cut wire

hi is it necessary to cut the 34V wire for the version 2 or is it just for the v1

Both. Or just use CleanJuice and turn off 34V wire
Hi. Can you confirm that the wiring for the left had ribbon is exactly the same for both single and 2 chip versions?

What about 640x480 screen? That'd be perfect for integer scaling in both GG and SMS modes.
Hi. Quick question. Do u need to use flux on the ribbon or is it straight to solder

Are the 3 pixel modes still available on the v3 version?
How can I tell if I have a VA0 or VA1 motherboard? I saw that this set up is only compatible with the VA1 versions:/

Checkout www.retrosix.wiki/model-versions-game-gear. Setup works on all except VA4/5 at the moment.
Please help. Screen display's wrong colors. I tried the switch in both positions and soldered a wire to csync. I have the two chip game gear Edit: I didn't see the update video. I soldered D5 to 5v, and that did the trick. Looks beautiful with an IPS screen.

Please explain, where is the update video you are talking about? I have stability issues (sometimes going black screen) and I am grasping at straws. So just out of interest I want to know more about the solution you mention (D5 to 5V).
Question, your C54 and C55 are empty, does it mean these capacitors are not required on all LCD mod kits?

Looking good! Is there a way to add the new anti-shimmer algorithm to a V1 kit? I just converted my console not but two weeks ago.

Unfortunately not. New one has much faster FPGA, and more advanced code. The older version has no memory left to be able to do that
