Hi,

I had a serious incident which my Gameboy's screen was cracked. Afterwards the screen was so bad that whenever I turned it on, the start up text didn't appear anymore. The screen ended up falling apart too.

Is it possible to quickly fix with a screen from another gameboy? See attachments

Thanks,

Edit: Oops I accidently sent this to Nintendo Consoles in a hurry. Could a mod move this to the Handheld thread instead? Thanks

Why not just replace the entire board? Soldering a new LCD on there would be a nightmare.

You might just have to get a new front board (sorry sad ). Or you could connect a gameboy pocket screen to your gameboy back pcb and salvage your gameboy that way. Those are the only solutions I would use if I was in your position.

You need to connect the pocket LCD to front board

Oops yah sorry that's what I meant to say hmm. You connect it to the front board then connect that to your back board. Thanks for pointing that out.
