so one copy of my mario kart super circuit shows yellow sunset instead of the blue sunset like my other copy, why is it?

I have been wanting to make it easier for me to change batteries instead of always having to solder a battery back on. I was nervous doing it but well worth it in the end. For reference it’s Pokémon Sapphire and Crystal.

Got this GBA for $25 on FB marketplace. Everything else seemed fine except that the cartridge slot is fucked up! This will be the first time i will be doing a repair/ replacement like this! And if I’m successful, this will be the base for an IPS mod! Wish me luck!

The display was working fine it still kinda does but when i recently turned on the pixel efect i noticed static on 3/4 of the screen guys help its new!!!

On hd filter its not visable not even a bit but only the pixel efect does it.

Its not that visable on the video but you can see it irl and its pissing me of.

A super fun little side quest.

Amazing how 2026 tech interacts with 2003 hardware!

Hi all!

As a 20-something who now has some disposable income, I was thinking about getting my childhood GBA fixed! The display doesn't work on startup, and with limited technical knowledge I doubt I could fix it myself.

I was wondering how you would all recommend finding people/places that do retro console repairs? I live in a fairly rural area, so I think it might be a challenge to find someone locally. Should I check around at used game stores for info? Or alternatively, are there any repair shops online that people would recommend?

Thanks :)

Im debating getting a gba, but I'm not sure if the investment is worth it. It has a couple games that i want, but not much. What should i do?

im thinking to purchase everdrive gba pro but i keep wondering, does it have sleep mode now like ezode or it still didnt support. for your info i really value sleep mode on the gba as it helps me pause games during my work shift so i didn't lose my progress

Hello folks, in the last year i worked on a passion project of mine, a fast and snappy action rpg with many skills and focus on fun and replayability.

There is a big story to discover and an endgame+ with some surprises

Enemies are more like a recource instead of obstacles.

At this point I try to get the combat more snappy and also get the link coop stable.

And a nice addition, you can play the game isometric or in true third person 3D and switch on demand.

I hope to get the game released this year or itch.io if you guys think this is a project you would possibly habe fun with:)

Hi all! I have a gba that isn’t working. I’ve checked the screen on another board and it works fine but I can’t get this to run. Can anyone take a look at this board and try to help me out to see if something’s wrong? Thanks so much!

Title is pretty self explanatory. When playing my gameboy games on my gba, usung the EZ Flash Omega flashcart, there’s several palettes you can choose from. Including one called “Pea Soup” which replicates the original green tint. I really like using this palette, but it’s a little annoying to have to switch to that palette every time I start a game.

Is there any way to make this the default palette so I can just start a game with this tint color?

Im trying to make a gift of swapping the shell and i cant find those specific clear shells with pokemons online

Can you guys recomend websittes based in the u.s.

Also if you guys can recomend a screen with good color and pixels, none of those oled screens

I have been getting back into Gameboy Advance games this last year. Really enjoying exploring new games that I never got to play when they released. Here's the current collection so far. Any suggestions for games or series to try out?

Hey fellas, so I bought a GBA SP ags 101 a while ago, which had one of those cheap chinese batteries that didn't really hold too much of a charge, so I decided to buy a Cameron Sino battery from their official shop here in Slovakia. I came home late yesterday so I decided to leave it charging all night and when I woke up, the light that's on when it's charging was still on while it was charging. Back when it had the cheap chinese battery, the light actually turned off when it finished charging. Is this an issue with the battery? Does the battery take forever to charge or could it be that it's charged, but has the light still on? Or perhaps it's an issue with the cable? Thanks in advance.

What am I doing wrong? Is it a formatting issue? I bought from AliExpress preloaded apparently...

On my GBA SP, I can't enter the trade room, even though I can access it on my GBA using the same wireless adapter.

Is it possible to fix the SP's port (if that's where the problem lies)?
