the plastic buttons wouldn't cause this, the silicon is the part which makes the electrical connection, the buttons themselves are within a very small margin of the originals if not exact.  if they were too thick, there would be an issue with getting the tactile feeling from the silicon pads in general, but a connection issue (electrical) when they are pressed would be a silicon issue. or else dirty contacts.

it could perhaps be the backlights though, if there is created pressure.  i've had this issue myself a long time ago with a thicker model, the pressure caused the buttons to be wonky...

try reconnecting the ribbon cable inside, it may not be making good contact and you could be having button issues from this.

thanks man!

using a new artist for us, wesleyoung.  his paintjobs are really nice, big attention to detail.  the silver/blue fade is pretty incredible, i was going to keep it myself but i decided to have him paint one of the new dmg cases for me instead

he was preparing some files for me to host, so that the design could get out to people and everyone could build it...

(but, like you mentioned, he's been awol for a while now)

i hope they pick up some of the features from the app and put them into a physical watch.

like world time and the millisecond counter.  its a pretty looking app.  i actually haven't tried it, but touchable nooka seems interesting to me (i've just gotten used to reading time like that though, in bar format)

or put two swivle points on the sides of the screen so you could tilt it, like a mirror.  you'd need to reinforce your solder joint but it should be very manageable.  put two stopper in there so you can only tilt it so much.  that might be a workaround...

thanks so much for letting us know, i appreciate it!

it does in the bottom one (as well as my version of it, which is yellow with a different name, but same guts it seems)

i ran a test on the sound of the yellow knock-off i've got, the results are posted in the thread which discusses the fake gameboy...  the wav channel was funky, everything else passed though...  (you can hear this in track playback on the machine, the wav playback is just wrong...)

not sure if they work in the top one.  there were several of this type released, the GB Boy being one.  i *think* they are all compatible, but i'll need to check...  i can remember testing it, but the memory isn't real enough so is probably fake in my mind... (happens)

glad to know others geek out on this stuff too!
