Sadly this custom shell is not what RetroSix sells on their website, they sell UV printed ones with no precision on the print, which means it can have something like 1 or even 2 milimeters bad offset from what you expect, it also can't print shades on transparent because the UV print needs to print a white primmer layer 1st, so if your shell is not white there's no shade for you, and that has limited printing area only on the front of the shell so nothing on the sides and nothing on the back of the shell.

Fantastic video. My only experience with the Game Gear was a girl in my neighborhood who got one in 1999 when Majesco re-released it. I was blown away with the backlit screen and power in a time when I had a Gameboy Color and a worm light. I was less impressed when I found out her parents refused to give her batteries so she had to use an AC adapter and plug into the wall!

Just found one of these game gear units $14. It's the second gen you mentioned in this video for the upgrade. 😅maybe I'll get it up and running again 😅.

Fantastic video and super excited to see more competition for Game Gear modding. Seems like each company releasing an LCD kit is improving on the last. This leads to something I'm surprised you didn't mention in the video, and that's costs. McWill's will go over $100 (if you get them Stateside and get a genuine McWill, not a Chinese clone) and the RetroKai Magic Screen also comes out to $100 with better features than the McWill. And now it seems like this kit will be closer to the $65-$75 range WITH significant install and feature improvements on the other kits.

Another great video! My 1-year old loves when I turn your videos on for background noise while I work. For those of us with the absolute minimal experience with soldering, are there any installers you would suggest I look at for doing this mod?

Totally epic and awesomest Game Gear to date. GG was my second handheld console. I enjoyed playing Sonic, Streets of Rage on it very much. Terminator was fun as it was frustrating. When Mortal Kombat was all the hype I loved playing it with all the gore and blood. Kano was missing with one punch and kick button. Start was block but it all worked. At the time be a kid who could play an arcade port in the car and in color was worth it.

Awesome video, Im becoming a bigger and bigger fan of your channel. Excellent structure and I appreciate that. Question for you, does this mod NOT work for say a VA4 or VA5? I happen to be working on a VA5 right now.

Hey Tito, amazing build and video as usual! I’m digging that custom shell, looks high quality and the colour is outstanding, nice touch! Regarding the screen, it does seem to be easier to install than the RetroKai which is a lot to say. Something I noticed with the screen modes, the scan lines seem horizontal rather than vertical present on the McWill and RetroKai modes, I’d like to see them side by side if possible and what is your opinion. I’m also curious about the sound card, how better is the sound comparing to your RetroKai build/stock i.e.? I look forward to that video then hehe. Cheers!

Start with cheap practice kits. I went with a mini-Piano 🎹 kit off Amazon that has lots of soldering and fun to use after your done. It's surprisingly easy after awhile but you'll need quite a few tools to be ready for a big modification. Temperature controlled Iron, several different sized tips big and small, Micro screwdriver and screws set, Soldering wire with Rosin/Flux already built-in, Micro Wire Cutters, Tweezers, Flux, Soldering Wick and Solder Sucker. Bunch of stuff I'm probably forgetting but those basic tools will get you off to a good start. ;)
