			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hi.</p><p>I have a gig tomorrow and I&#039;m in a pretty desperate situation - A backlight gameboy screen is broken and I wondered if this is at all possible to fix. </p><p>--</p><p><a class="postimg" href="http://i.imgur.com/z6SbtbP.jpg" title="http://i.imgur.com/z6SbtbP.jpg" id="forum_image_53298690"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/z6SbtbP.jpg" /></a></p><p>Whenever I put a cartridge into it, the Gameboy was so light that I couldn&#039;t even see the nintendo or lsdj screen load. Then suddenly it broke out into this image which you see above. </p><p>I wondered what would it take to replace the screen?&nbsp; I don&#039;t really want to replace it completely - Would it be possible to insert a new screen?</p><p>Any replies would be really appreciated. - Thanks</p>]]></content>
