Upgrading Circuit Sword (2017 CM3 model) to 640x480 LCD
Hi all! Honestly, I know this information is *probably* buried somewhere in the forums, but apologies, I am having a hard time finding it if so. I have had an absolutely lovely time with my Circuit Sword for years, with its 320x240 screen. Lately I've been toying with PC98 emulation and for the firs...

Re: Kite SAIO LCD washed out / text illegible

Hey all. Let me preface by saying total noob, first post, first GBZ build. I tried to find a similar problem in the forums, but if my search-fu failed, I apologize and will happily accept a link to a similar problem.
