Already ordered a new battery and an EZ-Flash Omega DE. Costed more than the console itself (which was around $65 USD) but would be so worth it playing Drill Dozer with real rumble for the first time in the intended console, without buying the real cart ofc.

You can smell the cut fingers through the screen. Those sharp edges on the cheap replacement case :rofl2:
A bit sad that they didn't keep the original buttons, as the cheap replacement ones feel like soda bottles.

But DAMN, the screen is in excellent condition! :O

I'm sorry to be a party pooper but you will soon realize that the front-lit screen is annoying and difficult to observe (due to the reflection produced by the so-called trapezoid effect). And the colors will be pale and watered down; If I'm wrong someone correct me. In practice, it will remain unused. 🤷

That's only problem if you're using the awful blue frontlight in pitch black room. Even a tiny desk lamp from 1m away is providing enough light to make the colors look better.

I would say that the colors look excellent in direct sunlight, but that's hard for most to attain...

I actually don't mind the screen, the only issue is that while the lens is not scratched or anything, someone tampered with the frontlight and left dust between the screen and the front, and even between the lens and the screen.

Tbh it's distracting with low light, and more so since I only play GB and GBC at the moment, and half of the screen is obscure.
