Blumpkin:
I have a question for you, how do you remove the screen protector on the original GBA? I've got mine all pulled apart for cleaning, and I ordered a replacement screen cover to make sure I'm scratch free. But I don't know how to get the old one out. Do I just push on it from the inside, or what?
Dravenae:
LOL! People actually get "pissy" about reproduction cartridges? Fuck em. I'd buy a reproduction cart of Demon's Crest in a heart beat. I can't afford the 100 Euro price tag at the moment. I'd love an original cart, but I wouldn't be bothered or continue to pursue the original cart any further, if there was a reproduction cart going for 50 Euro or under on the market.

Yup, just push! It's glued on, that's all.

Do as Wiggy has said, but if its really stuck there, try letting it soak in water for the night. Baby/Cooking I oil would be good too, as it loosens up glue pretty well, and as you won't be using that screen again, it doesn't really matter what happens to it. You can just clean the casing with some warm water soapy water.

I've never had a single GBA with a lens that won't pop off by just pushing, and I've torn down 100+ ;)
Just keep on pushin' on! ;D
