I just wanted to say thank you for this kit. I had assembled some of the parts to put a pi3 into an old Atari Lynx, but I knew it was going to be a very challenging project, then I saw your kit. I immediately bought the kit, a pi zero, and a GBA case off ebay. It went together in a day, no hitches at all!

And just to reiterate, if at all possible please get a BROKEN original Game Boy to use for this! You’ll be essentially gutting it anyway, so if you use one that has a fried CPU, bad screen, etc. it will probably be cheaper and won’t ruin a perfectly good DMG-01. 🙂

Don’t worry if the cuts on the battery compartment are a little rough. Our battery door still works and will cover all that up anyway. 🙂
I hope this was helpful! I set up forums today on the site, so if you have any questions or want to show off your work on this or any other project, stop by!
In the next guide I’ll show you how to cut out the parts you need on the controller board, how to add the X/Y buttons to it, how to tap into and wire it up to a Teensy, and how to program that. At the end of that guide you’ll actually be able to plug in your Teensy to your computer and use the front half of the GBZ as a controller to test it!
Be sure to enter to win the one I’ll be making in these guides!
