Forums - Nintendo Discussion - GBA IPS V2

I'm thinking about shelling out $200 for one of these GBA systems with the LCD screen. Does anyone have one? Is it worth the purchase? They look so sleek. I have a few games I want to play on my GBA.

can you post an image of what you're talking about exactly? im intrigued.



I can't vouch for the regular GBA model but, I installed the Funnyplaying IPS screen into my GBA SP 001 over the summer and I think it was worth it. The aspect ratio on the IPS screen is slightly stretched from the stock screen but the quality of the screen itself more than makes up for it.



If you own a GBA, just buy the screen and install it yourself. I've done that 5 months ago, there are plenty of YouTube tutorials explaining how to do it. Your GBA becomes an exquisite piece of hardware once it's installed.
