I don't know if this is the right place to post this (sorry) but I need some help with a backlight mod on a GBA I plan doing sometime soon.

The GBA I want to mod is an AGB-001 (32 pin-board). I don't know where I would be able to find any screens that would work with it. Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction to a place that sells backlit screens that can be put in? Thanks.

EDIT: Would this one work for my AGB-001?

Would an AGS 101 screen work though? I thought it was a different screen type that had to be put in since it's an AGB-001 model. Thank you though! I'll be sure to look into it.

Yes, AGS 101 screen will work for it, but you will need the 32 pin adapter since you have the 32-pin board. Also, you will need to modify the agb 001 case in order to fit the screen.
Not sure what is the latest revision of the board though. Maybe another temp member could add more information about it.

    @Xdqwerty, Don't use games that have Easy Anti-Cheat as its been exploited many times.

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    @SylverReZ, i think they have been doing that since late 2000s

    Either that or their old games were unfinished aswell but we can't notice it

    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, I have a rom of the ds version of impossible mission
