The GameBoy Switch | GBA TV OUT Mod! | Play Your GBA On The TV Using The Link Port!
In today's episode of Retro Renew, I look at a brand new IPS kit that also allows you to connect your GBA to the TV through the link port! Thid is like making you’re GameBoy Advance into a Nintendo Switch! It’s absolutely amazing that no new port needs to be added to the console in order to achieve this. Video out is entirely through the link port! Not only is this a TV Out Mod, it’s also a fantastic IPS mod as well. This all-in-one kit is certainly a unique package! Let’s take a closer look shall we?

    @CrazyMaxxVideos It's not very good. Even on a good wifi signal, you're also bottlenecked by the 3DS performance. A game that runs at 30 FPS could stream at 20 for example. Even then , you'd have to lower the quality and it looks like a compressed JPEG mess. It's a HUGE shame the current options aren't open source.

    You know, I’ve been tempted to get one of those retro consoles for playing gameboy/gba on my TV for the last few years but I’ve never followed through because of price. I don’t really need all the special features or HDMI compatibility, so this would be the perfect option for me. No expensive retro consoles, no need to hunt down a GameCube and Gameboy Player, and all I have to do is a minor amount of soldering. This is perfect for someone of a similar mindset to me, and the only way it could get better is if it had a way to activate Super Gameboy enhancements built into the older Gameboy games. I was considering getting that drop in GBA ips mod you made a video about a little bit ago, but now that this is on my radar I might just go this method instead.

    You should get your hands on a GBA Consolizer. I have one and it's pretty great. Installing it wasn't hard and it looks amazing on my 55" OLED. Only downside to it is it uses DVI instead of HDMI so you may have to use the headphone jack for sound. I just plugged it into my HDMI 2 on my TV instead of in my AV receiver and got a 3.5mm to RCA cable to plug into the receiver.

    I've been modding my GBA like crazy, and have been considering upgrading from the IPS screen I have to this one, but if the link port loses its functionality specifically for GameCube connectivity, then that is a genuine deal breaker. A main reason I wanted to mod my GBA is to have a better way to play games like 4 Swords Adventures and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles.

    @@MachoNachoProductions I assume you mean the wireless GBA compatability for the small collection of games that used that adapter like Fire Red and Leaf Green. If however there is some wireless Gamecube adapter, I'm very intrigued to learn about that. Anyway I think the 4 official products to check are: standard GBA link cables, Wireless GBA link connecting for the few games that support it, GBA to GameCube link cable connectivity, and E-Reader connectivity. Unofficially there is the Majesco wireless link that can be used with any other GBA using the same accessory even though the game in question never supported the official wireless link (Pokemon games aren't supported with this accessory for whatever reason) and the Kionix GBA Acceleramator accessory that can be used with GBA homebrew for motion control. I believe that is the extent of products that need to be tested with this mod. Though I know the last 2 unofficial products might be much harder to test considering how much more difficult they are to come by. Edit: oh wait, I think there was an unofficial GBA Camera that used the port too that probably should be checked as well.

    The Composite output quality of this kit does look pretty nice all things considered. One question tho. Does this IPS kit have any built in filters for GBA mode, such as the gridline filter? I absolutely love the way the gridlines look for GBA titles and it's really a shame when today's IPS kits don't include it.

    Did you test the link port before modding this GBA? Because mine worked fine with the AV out kit installed. the next iteration of this kit (because of course they already made a new revision) tried to fix this non-issue and requires a more complicated install and breaks accessory compatibility to be able to use a link cable while in tv out mode.
