I can't wait to get my preorder. The first thing I ever worked hard for was the gameboy Sp. Saved up for a few months mowing grass in about 5th grade. It's in really rough shape nowadays. I can't wait to breathe new life into that thing

Thank for going over every single nuance. I am also very picky with details and you go over every little thing. Thank you so much!

Review was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥, I was legit waiting for the tutorial for when I get mine 🥳🥳🥳🥳

Great tutorial and review!

Made a full black model for my slate, it looks so slick.

I love mine. Looks and feels awesome!!!

I just found your channel, and I need you to review the unhinged gba sp as well. This is my favorite review video I've seen, because you have actual cons about the shell. Thumbs up!

Thank you! Even though I hate the SP, I still tried to stay as objective as possible. I would love to review the unhinged SP but I do not want to pay for it since it is so expensive and I don’t like SPs. But if they send it to me, I’ll definitely review it

I just did a mod on a sp with an ips screen but when I play after a few minutes the screen freezes but you can still here it in the background playing know why and how I can fix please and thank you

Are you still able to use the trade cable after you change to this shell ?

That thing looks sick!

6:15 I am in awe how this flaw was never caught in preproduction. I went to preorder & saw how there are NO Membranes for the Metal Buttons - I asked," how do you prevent the metal-on-metal friction?" It just magically doesn't exist 😹

🔥 review! Honest and true 👍 👌 and funny!

I think its neat. It is expensive. I want to see cool new versions of the original GBA as well. The original form factor is my preference.

This mod is completely unhinged

Does the dehum kit for the sp work with the slate?

I really thought it was a new version of the Unhinged until i saw the back part 🙃

The mod looks dope, Makho should be proud. I think I'm with you though, it's not my preference. But if I were going to mod an SP this would be a strong consideration, if it were importable (it might be I just haven't looked).

Same dude 😭🙏

looks like a Metroid (samus) special edition, looks nice and smooth AF

I love the regular SP look, this just kind of reminds me of those emulator hand helds I see all over the net. Its sleak don't get me wrong but, something about the regular SP is just nicer.

Do u know if there is a dsi mod?? N would u do a video of one plz maybe??

What would a good alternative to flush cutters? Dremel? I don't wanna go buy flush cutters just for 1 small job.

Dremel works but flush cutters are cheap and can come in handy other times in life so I recommend grabbing a pair anyways

Looks awesome!! Do you think you'll do any of these on stream and sell them in the future?

I’m thinking about it. It’s just tough because they are expensive

I don’t repair sp’s (I repair ds’s :) ) but I have great memory’s playing on my Gb advance so I have nothing but love for the sp :)

here, where you mention the posts 10:09! do i glue to the back shell and that be before or after i put the springs around them! pls lmk!

@JakeSimmons

This is in reference to this specific mod where the posts are slightly smaller so gluing it down makes sure they stay in. If you just did a regular sp mod, this would do anything. But you would glue the posts in before the spring and plastic

@@duke_8747 thanks for Replying . I keep reading the metal buttons are ruining the tact switches. They have a whole Reddit conversation about it with photos. That kapton tape over the switches is a temporary solution & the tape always has to be replaced.

the boxy pixel version of this mod is actually complete.

I like the color way you chose. If you still have that GBA Slate & don’t want it send it my way 🤓( seriously ) 🥶. Good stuff though 👾

Boxy pixel looks 10xs better. I mean this doesn’t even come with a back for 90$. Boxy comes with the front and back for the same price.
