My bf bought a gba sp at a flee market for 20 US dollars. I told him maybe he shouldn't, but go ahead if you want to. When he got home, it turned out to be a AGS 101 and fully working! BEST FIND I ever seen at a flee market. Good job mate! 👍

It didn't come with a charger, and the battery was drained so we couldn't test it. He would have to buy it and take it home to test it. If it didn't work my bf couldn't just return it easily because he lives on the other side of the state, so he was lucky enough to even get his mom to drive him down to hang out that day. We also didn't know it was ags 101 while we were there, and he literally said "I already have a lot of GBAs" while contemplating to buy it. So I was just letting him know the risk, but I wasn't going to stop him, and I didn't, and turned out to be a great deal!

I would love to buy one of these! Preferably already made. I miss my GBA... I'm really sad that it had to brick itself. Some hardware modifications (upgrades) that I would love to make to a GBA, if I had the skill, money, tools and patience: - A better battery (one that has higher capacity, better cycle life, etc...) - Mechanical button switches, instead of membrane (faster response and better tactile feedback.) - A better D-Pad. - Buttons with slightly different shapes so that it's easier for my thumb to tell which is which. - A texture on the case that makes it easier (and more satisfying) to hold. - A high quality screen protector, with an anti-reflective / anti-glare finish. - Addition of an IR port for older GB/GBC games that need it. - Addition of a proper headphone jack. - Adjusting the oscillator for the screen so that it runs at a true 60 Hz (or better yet, so that it runs at a refresh rate far higher than whatever framerate the game is actually running at, that way input latency and screen tearing are both kept to a minimum.) - Replacing the volume slider with a GBC-style volume wheel. - Replacing the power switch with one that can't get stuck in an in-between position. More ambitious upgrades that are also on my bucket list: - Replacing the main RAM in the system with much faster SRAM (256 kilobyte SRAM chips shouldn't be too difficult to get these days). - Replacing the ARM and GB-Z80 CPUs with much faster binary-compatible substitutes. - Replacing the BIOS chip with one that contains significantly optimized code. - Running the hardware at a significantly lower voltage (for example, 1.1v) instead of 3.3v or 5v (for GBA/GBC respectively) to improve battery life. A buck-boost converter or other voltage regulation system would also be used so that it could still safely interface with cartridges. - A custom PCB with extensive optimization of the various circuit traces, and increased resistance to damaging things like moisture.

This video gave me the confidence to upgrade my very own GBA SP to an IPS screen. I’ve never soldered before in my life but after a couple minor quirks I managed to do it without damaging the original board. And the brightness works great! Idk if it’s just me but I noticed my original game boy and game boy color games look fantastic where the GBA games look a bit stretched. Probably the bigger screen but I mostly play GB Color and older games.

The shell shown in the video is a rather new type of shells. The transparent shells are of a much higher quality than the (older) non-transparent ones. Also not as brittle as an old AGS 001 shells for sure. Seen him crack the shell old pink shell in the video? Most AGS-001 shells crack that easily, as they are made from a very brittle plastic (same as gen 1 NDS).

(There are accessories that let you use the EXT. 2 port for a headphone adapter, but EXT. 2 is also used for charging meaning you can't use the charging and headphone at the same time, and it also blocks off access for the GBA wireless adapter which takes up all of the space on the back)

I noticed that you did not put the foam pad behind the screen. I have not done this mod yet but have seen some videos saying the screen shifts in without it. Are you noticing this or is it a precaution piece and not needed?

On most videos the side bit of plastic gets cut completely while the one he used was just slightly trimmed down and still hold the screen well enough. I would probably still use the foam personally. On mine I used a dark smokey shell and the foam that came with my screen was black so it all look really nice.

I just finished putting a new shell on my SP - if I saw this video earlier, I probably would have added a new screen too! But taking apart the screen area was such a pain that I don't want to do it again - especially since it's near impossible to do without damaging the little rubber screw covers. Maybe I'll get another SP and start a 2nd project...

how much of the shell do you need to trim down when putting in the new screen? is there a specific amount or do you just trim it down all the way?

Out of curiosity, do you prefer AGS-101 or IPSV2? I’m looking to mod my GBA, but I’m struggling to decide between the two. And where would you purchase an AGS-101 screen from in the UK?
@Mixus1
4 жыл бұрын
The IPSv2 screen is superior in every way besides battery life. I recommend getting both types of screens from Aliexpress (AGS-101), and Funnyplaying (IPSv2). It's the cheapest way and all those screens are coming from China anyways. No need to pay the premium that shops in the UK are charging.

FServ|Fantasy thank you for responding! I actually think I’m going to go for the AGS-101 due to the more nostalgic look to the screen with pixel borders and such. And thank you very much for the advice on where to find!

Or at least modding it with a regular usb port the one wich the last version of the vita have. Sure USB C is kinda the future now or the new Standart but I donno both would be a great solution not gonna lie. But not sure if u can actually eqip something like that to the motherboard or wherever u can place it

1st of all, I grew up on GBC. 2nd of all, for the time, the lighting for the GBA SP wasn't awful. Considering the sad light that plugged into the GBC, the GBA SP did phenomenally well. And I still play mine, 80 minutes battery life and all, lol. But for a 13 year old console with internal battery, I'd say its doing alright. Much better than a modern phone

Hi Elliot! I don't know if you'll respond to this but long story short, I tried opening up my GBA SP and managed to round off a few of the triwing screws on the bottom so I can't open the SP. Any ideas on how I could get it open without affecting the shell?
