I've built 2 of these so far. The IPS screen is so much better than the original TFT. It really makes the 20 year old system fun again. The only original part is the GBA motherboard, so you have to find a working donor (they used to be cheap but not any more.) The screen, ribbon cable/ daughterboard, shell and buttons are all from a company called FunnyPlaying. Believe it or not, there is an audio mod also available (although I don't think I'll bother with it.)
Testing the screen before assembly. The original pink donor shell is to the left.
