[WANTED] Gameboy DMG parts

Post by rodocop » Sun Mar 12, 2017 7:56 pm

Looking to work on an old gameboy. Backlight and biverted one already, looking to do a few more. If anyone has any old parts from a DMG let me know.

I have a working power PCB. The screen side does not work though. (Powers up with sound and buttons work, but the LCD seems to be dead, totally blank).

I'm in Canada and don't want to spend a lot. Let me know if you have something you're willing to part with and for what price.

I'm still interested in a working LCD board, PM me if you have one, and how much you want for it.

The LCD board is the weak point on DMG's. With so many getting screen cancer, horizontal lines or broken ribbons from backlights that have gone wrong, people rarely have spare LCD boards now.
BennVenn has made a drop in replacement, but it's not cheap... $40USD and shipping from australia, but dayum it's nice. (i have one but haven't got round to doing the mod yet...)

Yeah I've seen the bennvenn ones, very nice. If I can't find an LCD replacement I might buy one. We'll see.
