I saw it too. it's exactly who I thought it was from the custom case (loopy mods should have been more of a giveaway...)

How much did he sell it for in the end ? I know he was going to sell it as he couldn't get on with the resolution with the screen.

Not a bad price considering I sold it to him at £235

I'm generally happy with game performance at 320x240, as the costs to get the only known 640x480 4:3 composite display are so high, but I definitely feel his pain when it comes to the RetroPie menus. Do the font size/scaling config changes help with that? I haven't tried with mine yet.

Realistically speaking, though, the original Gameboy was 160x144, and the Advance was 240x160, so 320x240 is better than the original consoles so the gameplay should be fine.

Looks like the speaker sits in the well easily...which one did you use? Did you have to mod the case or speaker to fit it in?

Now the question is, how are we gonna make the font size bigger from the rom's list ?
Like below , options , menu, back.. those are pretty good visible, but for that dang list i really need cat eyes, it's the baddest thing about the whole build, oh and nice buttons i have these too :)
