Game Boy DMG-01 Capacitor List. A quick note on replacing capacitors: there are a few caps on the LCD board that require removal of the LCD module to desolder. For those caps, I would not attempt to remove the LCD module, instead I would cut the leads as close to the old capacitor body as possible and solder the replacement parts to the old legs. Silver MARIO 5 Levels Backlit V2 iPS LCD Screen GameBoy Advance sp GBASP Console. Free shipping. Color: Silver. Platform: Nintendo Game Boy Color. Type: Display: LCD Screen. 5 levels High Light LCD Screen Kits For Nintendo Game. DMG-01: Game Boy: It is original Game Boy. It can be used by four AA batteries only for about 35 hours, and is the longest in the Game Boy series. But, In the Game Boy series, body size is.

PRE-ORDER!!!!! - This is a pre-order, it will not ship until they arrive. They are due to arrive MID FEBRUARY though our PCB manufacturer has given us lengthy delays in the past. If this is not suitable, please wait until they are in stock to order.

This Kit includes a custom Front PCB WITH ribbon cable and brand new 3 inch backlit LCD screen. You will need to solder on your old speaker. The PCB interconnect ribbon comes pre soldered when purchased here, other distributors may provide this loose and you'll need to solder yourself.

You will need to enlarge the viewing window in the DMG front shell, and provide your own LCD protector (JellyBelly customs sell these). Some shell modification will be required. Soldering required for your existing speaker and 2 backlight wires.

While not a drop in replacement, this new screen does offer a superior backlight, amazing contrast and comparable refresh rate with the original. Due to the STN construction of the LCD there are some contrast artifacts on heavy grey images but these don't normally occur during gameplay. This can be seen in the image with the BennVenn SD logo - and is the absolute worst case example.

This LCD does have blur/refresh latency similar to the original and IS NOT ideally suited for fast moving high graphics games like DKC. It is best suited to static or slow moving/RPG games. LSDJ, Pokemon, Tetris etc. Please take a look at the independent reviews on youtube to help decide if this product is for you.

Questions are welcome, stock is limited!

Backlight color is white, you can replace the 0805 size smd leds (6 of them) to change the backlight color.

Game Boy DMG-01 Capacitor List

A quick note on replacing capacitors: there are a few caps on the LCD board that require removal of the LCD module to desolder. For those caps, I would not attempt to remove the LCD module, instead I would cut the leads as close to the old capacitor body as possible and solder the replacement parts to the old legs. The LCD modules are known for developing bad connections, so you probably don't want to aggravate the LCD during the capacitor replacement process.
