I’m getting a laugh about how half-assed their attempt to hide the Nintendo branding is.

What’s the deal with all the different lenses though? What are those?

There’s zero attempt to hide the branding on the actual product. Nintendo logo on the main shell, GBC sticker on the back. Hell, they even include the “Questions and Service” 1-800 number sticker for the back <img alt="Front" src="https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/5f23fa9c-01ee-437a-8de1-fbf9bb5c2686.jpeg"> <img alt="Back" src="https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/7295cc5f-a893-44f5-a89a-f24bd07767fe.jpeg">

The fact that they included the service sticker on the back is 10/10. How long until Nintendo gets them blocked outside China (the company appears to be Chinese)?

I put mine together last week. Cool piece of kit

I deeply miss my atomic purple GBC, so for the price and overall quality of this, this definitely looks like an awesome replacement. I’d love to get one eventually

I still have mine from when I was a kid. It’s great. The only issue is I can’t see it now haha. I don’t really want to mod it.

I have one of these and built a few for my friends. Honestly a fantastic system. I find myself playing it way more than my Analogue Pocket.
If you’re not a fan of their bootlogo heres an unofficial fw with the original gb/gbc bootlogo (its in the patched_fw directory)
