Damn I can't believe we're this far. HDMI out on GBAs is amazing. we're so close to just a switch style dock that we can drop our retro handhelds into. I think it could happen! One thing I really like about the composite GBA out was that it used those (borderline sketchy) cables that plug right into the link port on the GBA, I think that was so cool.

I had to use sand paper because I didn't know where to get a file like the one he has.

One thing I'd consider a con is that the board doesn't actually fasten to anything, and with the placement of the HDMI port it sits at a slight angle. That's not an issue with screen driver boards, but this one has a port that you're regularly plugging something into. I would worry that over time it would come loose or get pushed into the case. I think a 3d printed bracket to hold it in place would be a great upgrade.

I really need to look into this more. The HDMI out does soften the image. The TV out does too over composite. The GBA does output pretty decent composite and why wouldn't it being half the resolution of an SNES. There's not a lot of data the composite signal needs to carry so in the case of the GBA, the difference between HDMI and composite isn't as large as say composite vs RGB on a Sega Genesis. I really don't like the idea of hacking the ext port which limits the compatibility with accessories in doing so. I have no issues with modding an aftermarket shell.. maybe I could install a 2.5mm stereo TRS jack on the top to carry composite and audio...

If I had to guess, it's still Composite video internally, but since it never becomes analog in the first place, it stays relatively "clear" and doesn't suffer from analog noise and colors bleeding. That would also explain the 720x480 resolution, which suspiciously sounds like a 480i source being deinterlaced. That's also not a standard resolution, that's why the Elgato doesn't like it, it would probably work with a cheap 20$ HDMI capture card that doesn't care about standards.
