Very slick, and nice use of (what I assume are) vector graphics.  A number of the items in your list are relevant to my interests, so I look forward to doing business with you in the future.  I really hope this takes off for you like it most certainly should!

I'd like a modification kit for Turbo Express, Game Gear and Nomad.

Thank you, sir!  Yes, I'm a vector crackhead.  I will use any excuse I can come up with to make a vector icon or graphic :P

Any pics of a GBA with backlit screen?


Indeed!

Dual brightness switch example

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7AS_g3VXXE&feature=plcp

No light
Front light
Back light



Brighter setting on both



Dimmer setting on both



Yes, the GBA with the SP screen IS dimmer.  Honestly though, I actually prefer it that way.  It's a lot easier on the eyes over a period of time and most likely the only time it would even remotely be an issue would be in direct sunlight.

Looks really good man! I may look into some of your stuff later when you get more available.

Thanks!  I'm making some more packaging for vaious products right now...

I'd like a modification kit for Turbo Express, Game Gear and Nomad.

I'm working on something for the GG right now (thanks to Forte for letting me use his as a Guinea Pig ;) ).  As far as the TE and Nomad go, what are you looking for?  I know there are folks that have put newer, nicer LCDs into teh Nomad, but I haven't seen or heard much about modding the TE.

i just want a DMG-SP!  how much for one of those guys? :)

One billion-gazillion-bajillion dollars! ;D

But seriously, a LOT.  Still gotta finish mine up when I get a little free time to work with.  It takes a TON of work to make it completely backward compatible and still have every bit of functionality that the SP does.   Just making that adapter cart was hours and hours of work.


More pics to come later.  Gotta get back to work...

This is fantastic! I need to pick up that new GBA for modding and then I'll be getting your GBA backlight kit. (Or I might just buy a pre-modded one, since I'm leaning towards the black shell). And down the road I'll definitely be wanting to do a frontlit mod with a GBC and new LCD screen/rechargeable battery on my Sega Nomad.

Will you also be offering your Double and Triple UGC (and other cases) services?

Also, when you say custom paint, do you have any examples? Like, could you paint a Game Boy Color shell flat black to match the black GBA in your backlit video?

This guy is powder coated



I'm trying to dig up pics of various painted stuff.  I know I have more pics somewhere, but this is what's already in my photobucket.



Started off as raw ABS (clearish yellow).





This guy is just dusty, that's not IN the paint.








Before and after.





I know there's a lot of automotive stuff in there, but painting is painting.  I've been painting plastics for a long time ;)

As far as cases go, yeah, sure.  I'm actually trying to work on a faster and better way of making them right at this moment.  Smoothimnow actually turned me on to a cheap product that seems like it'll work well for the sleeves :D

Me?  Are you asking if I will ship international?  If so, yes!

Those look great. I think I'll have to have you paint the GBC I have modded then.

Do you have any pics of installed LED power indicators, particularly blue?

Hmm, I don't have much with blue.


Here's red in a Genesis 3




Various wacky LED mods.




Purple in my SNES shell and normal SNES mini




This is from a set of headlights that I did.




Green power LED in NGPC (normally red)



Wacky EL rope 'Cube with one-off clear lid and blue power LED.






Those damned SNES wireless controllers that make me want to hurl myself off a bridge.





BTW, here's the LED that was used in that G3.  I'm not scurred of them tiny little bastards! ;D

What's so bad about those wireless SNES controllers? Personally, I'd pay a pretty penny for a decent one.
