Re: Custom painting a gameboy to look like snes?

Good point on the paint bleeding because of the surface dimples.

I don’t have a cricut machine. Is that what you use for your decals?

Thanks for the link on the dark grey start select buttons.

Re: Custom painting a gameboy to look like snes?

I also plan on using a dark grey D-Pad that I bought from Retro Modding instead of the black D-pad that came with the shell. I did notice that the D-pad was slightly smaller than the one that came with the shell though. The dark grey will bel closer to the SNES controller D-Pad. I just could not fin...

Re: Custom painting a gameboy to look like snes?

Wow! Thank you very much for all the advice. Masking an oval around the gameboy logo is a pretty smart idea. It may also be cool to re-do the gameboy logo but in SNES font, maybe have it say Game Boy Zero or Game Boy CM3 instead? It could be cool to replicate all the button lettering and select star...

Re: 2500mah adafruit battery

Thank you. That was going to be my next question. I would prefer not to modify the battery compartment that much for the ada fruit 2500mah. I could not find any 4000mah before I ordered the 2500mah, but I will checkout the link you sent. Thanks for you help. I am very new at this. It’s my first buil...

Re: Custom painting a gameboy to look like snes?

Is slide transfer paper something I can print on with an inkjet or laser printer?

Is there any posts you have seen out there with a tutorial on a Snes version like I want to do?

2500mah adafruit battery

Sorry if I'm asking something that has already posted. I purchased the adafruit 2500mah battery. I saw that it was recommended. It seems too wide to actually go inside the battery compartment. If I cut the case then the battery door cover will sink in. There it a part of the battery wrapped in tape....
