The issue now with the price is that the Analogue Pocket is coming out. For the same price as the kit + a gba you're already at the price of the pocket. Depending on the price of their dock, which will enable TV output, you'll almost certainly be cheaper than the full install service. There just isn't going to be a reason to pick up this kit once that releases and is they're able to hold decent stock.

These redesigns are awesome! I'm super happy with mine. I thought the install was pretty tedious. Mainly because I soldered controller points wrong, wops and had to open everything up and see what was wrong! :) So this new design will make things like this much faster! Well done Woozle and Jason! Two things: 1. firmware change should be able to do via either micro SD or via usb to pc instead of having to use a jtag-programmer. 2. the hdmi spec vs speedrunner should be an option in the firmware. Changing and not confirming within 30 seconds should make it go back to previous setting or something.

I imported an Arctic White GBA from Japan before it was released in the USA and self-installed the Portable Monopoly Afterburner front light kit back in the day only to find that it looked TERRIBLE compared the the installs I did on USA systems. I recall that my early Japanese system had an extra rework resistor soldered to a pin on the cart slot. I wonder if that would affect things for you, since you are importing them from Japan.

@@RenRenification I totally get the Pocket's appeal. Who doesn't? The library of handheld games it promises is objectively awesome. BUT it doesn't exist yet. The GG adaptors for the Mega SG STILL don't exist. Maybe they never will. Who knows? And Analogue are likely to overcharge for shipping TWICE over if you want either the HDMI dock or DAC too... and in all likelihood the GBA core wont be perfect upon release. Far from it..Whereas real hardware by definition will always be what the FPGA code will aspire to replicate. Personally I'm not fussed about GBA on a television (my preferred GBA solution is using hardware virtual console installs on an IPS-panelled New 3DS XL) but if I did want a pure GBA-on-TV option it'd have to be a self-installation of Woozle's kit. Totally understand the value proposition Analogue are putting forward with their killer Pocket product but right now (Oct 2019) it's nothing but hype.
