Nevermind I figured out what it does, My question now though is do I need a powerboost?

That picture above is the power boost.

My bad forgot to attach the images, actually I believe I bought the kit from you Rodocop.

haha, too funny! it looks like you have all you need then, although I don't see a battery. that's about it. (oh and the Pi zero...)

Well then, post what you have in the kit and someone can likely help you out and see if you have enough to build a GBZ. I would assume if you bought a kit from someone it would have included all the necessary bits...But who knows.

It's also been a long time since I've done a gbz...but one thing to try is to flip the wiring on the
volume wheel. (If that makes sense, flip it over and wire according to the diagram).

The amp has a small screw pot on it. Which can be used to adjust volume. Maybe that's it? Easiest solution.

As for retrogame. Check is gpio 18 is referenced in it at all...

You could also swap to gpio 13, which is also a pwm pin. You would need to change the config.txt line as well.

Hi, I am having the exact same issue. Some buttons makes everything freeze/lag and others not, whenever I increase the volume (PWM audio) the effect gets exaggerated. In the end, which silicone pads did you buy?? I want to test new ones because I have the same issue I have found the quality varies ...

Not sure if you're talking about the case not fully closing. Or if the PCB just pops up a bit. If it's the PCB "sticking up a bit", then I wouldn't worry about it. If the case doesn't close properly see the comment above. For some tips. Also, post a pic if you can, so we can know exactly what you me...

Alos those spliced wires...blue/red going to green/green don't look that great. Maybe address that. Or just solder the blue/red to the pi rather than splicing them.
