I can't find exactly whether or not the plates are actually like the original plates. They look like they're silicone stickers from the pictures to me though hmm

Did you see the link? These:

Apparently he makes buttons to match but I couldn't find anything on the site. The site is pretty new apparently.

Yeah, but those ones ar silicone overlay adhesives, which cannot be removed from the micro after adhesion. I think I've seen some adhesive stickers on eBay before which can go onto a faceplate. However, as you previously mentioned, ruining a perfectly good screen is expensive and sinful. KITSCH, GET ON THIS!!!!

Okay I can't take it any more! I am ready to start sacrificing humans to you if you make micro faceplates. EBay prices are reaching close to 30 bucks!

Also nitro, not sure whether or not you saw the page on his freewebs site for the "gamecube laptop"
http://www.freewebs.com/xcrossxi3/gamecubelaptop.htm

Or his "XBox Ps2 Nes in 1 Pimp Mod "
http://www.freewebs.com/xcrossxi3/xbpm.htm

100% fake, for sure (not that I doubted you, nitro smile)

I've been considering doing this for my red version for awhile now. I'd be able to make some good scans of a blue version label, but I'm boned for a good one of red version )-:

I got started with Famitracker. It has a learning curve like a cliff at first, but tutorials on the internet explain literally any problems you are having. Learning chiptune is more difficult than an average instrument, so it'll take a bit to figure it out.

How did you remove the text so cleanly? Whenever I do something like this, it always ends up cloudy and crappy-looking.

Does finding 3 NESs, an SNES with no yellowing, a blue pocket, and a CIB genesis in the trash count as a deal? (All were functional of course, with cables)

Edit: just remembered, I once bought a black SP, and pokemon gold, silver, and red versions for twenty bucks from a pothead once in school.

I know people are saying not to do this with LSDJ, but do you think there could be any harm in sending them the free demos of LSDJ, nanoloop, or MGB?

Though rarity isn't its main purpose, http://videogames.pricecharting.com/ catalogs the prices and dates of sales of games on ebay, amazon, and half. Though it cannot speak for what is in the wild, it is extremely important if you plan on buying online.

The contrast for orange is spectacular, and cool looking. Honestly, all of those colors look great (in my experience), so you can't really go wrong with any of them.

In PA where I am, my local videogame store sells greyboys for $20, clear for $25 (though I didn't have money with me that day, and it was sold the next day >:-/), and yellow for $40. Haven't ever seen them have other colors of DMG there, so I can't comment on their prices.
That being said, I also saw 3 at my local flea market today, two for $20 each (vendors were a**holes), and one for $12.

Colors are usually around ten bucks, though you need to pray to Satan and sacrifice a toe to have them come with battery covers.

Finally, I feel like I have some DMGs that I'm not planning on accidentally breaking in two weeks, which i feel confident enough to show people!

First off, pretty basic red PIL with ASM backlight. Looks AMAZING in person, though it needs a new screen protector due to the previous owner being shaky with super glue.

Next up: a classic. Black PIL with pink buttons, switch, port cover, and backlight. Needs a new screen protector as well, a package from Kitsch should be here soon to fix that though.

Last one, this is not quite finished yet. My order got messed up, and I ended up with a yellow backlight instead of a blue one. I only noticed this when I finished installing it, though (Facepalm).

Current mods:
- ASM backlight
- Internal prosound (added after picture was taken)
- ASM blue clear case
- ASM screen protector

Planned mods:
- Kitsch's V3.2 variable clock mod
- BLUE backlight, not the yellow one pictured

Each one matched up with its main purpose:

Best of luck to you.

Damn my tendency to make big purchases from kitsch and ASM an hour before someone puts something awesome for sale...
