A relatively simple DMG, the SlowPoke sports a Bivert-able Screen, as well as Pitchmod, and an additional jack for Prosound!  Oh, and did i mention is has a set of internal LEDs?!  Lighting the splatter effect from the back, creates an awesome effect- and better yet, the LEDs serve as a battery level indicator!  When they go out; you've only got about 15 more minutes before the DMG too dies!  The toggle switch controls the biversion, and pressing the button will enable the Pitchmod (using custom FERN variable oscillator circuits)- meaning you get maximum control over when, and for how long you bend your sound- with next to no chance of a crash!
Status LED has also been modded to match the backlight!

Price: $135 - Open to trades!

Care to elaborate a little more on that momentary switch? I.e. What switch you used / how it's wired / what exactly it does?
Super intrigued!

My modded clear DMG, with a green backlight from ASM, clear Kitsch-Bent buttons, Nonfinite screen cover, ThursdayCustoms Case LEDs, and a Nonfinite 1/8'' (3.5mm) Line out (Prosound jack).

Also, my second time soldering. My first time was when I made my first modded DMG, but since I broke 2 other DMG LCDs, I had to take the LCD from that one, change the backlight color, and put it into this new one.

Sadly, the Game Boy is missing 5 vertical pixels, 4 of which cannot be fixed (due to me accidentely cutting the ribbon cable with the razor blade while scarping off the adhesive sad) and one which is temporary (goes away when you put pressure on the case sometimes tongue)

I loved the experience, and I definitely learned stuff from it.

It looks so pretty!
In regards to the LCD - it took a long time for this to sink in for me. WORK SLOWLY AND DON'T RUSH IT. The first time i did a successful backlight mod was the first time that i really took my time and didn't rush it. Too many times i'd managed to crack the LCD by applying too much pressure or cut the ribbon cable (as you did). DMG modding is so addictive :')

I've just ordered a gamegear speaker after seeing this and am gonna see how much of a difference it makes!

Did you buy a speaker or an amp? In any case, a commercial option is in the works.

A speaker. And what do you mean by a 'commercial option'?

Always use the right cleaning equipment! This just might happen to you!

That looks like a plastic defect to me if anything. I use Isopropyl for cleaning of actual electronics (solder points / contacts .etc)
When it comes to sticky residue, use Eucalyptus oil. It works a charm! It's by far the best thing i've found for removing stickers!

Anyone with experience having stickers printed - what's the best way to go about it?
I'm looking for somewhere that'll sell custom white glossy stickers (1.5" x 1.5" -- 2" x 2').
What's the best site to use for this sort of thing?
Something that's not too expensive but not too shitty wink

I don't think there is any problem with doing it again. We are a bunch of different artists, so the result won't be the same. And we aren't restricting ourselves to the original gen. Providing for a bunch of different song possibilities.

I'm completely with you. I can see this heading in a really good direction and i'm kinda excited to see what comes of it! The pokemon split I posted was very monotonous in the sense that a majority of the songs sounded similar. I'll definitely be following the progress!

Get on that shit! I'm sure there's someone on here that's after one.

Semi-related: What's the most you've spent on a gameboy (or other console) cartridge?

I'm fairly surprised nobody's posted this yet!
Your idea has already been done, sadly. I remember years ago (back in the days of myspace) when Vaila, Oak's Parcel and 'I wonder what's for dinner' started this split. They also partnered with:
Vaila, Rawesome, iwwfd, Lombardi Skies, Worlds Within, Rascovok, Protoflight, Sword of Omens, Red Gyarados, Horologue, Tonda Gossa, Popstar Burst!!, and A Winner Is You¹

Check out the whole split here:

Edit: There is still a few (50 odd) of the original 150 that haven't been done - perhaps you could contact them and join forces! (Nothing has been posted in the previous 6 months on Rawesome's page though.)

Not sure where else might have it, but australia has what's called "Kerbside pickup" where each suburb, once a year, can throw whatever they want to get rid of onto the sidewalk and it'll be picked up on a certiain day.

I decided to go on a detour the other day through a suburb that was undergoing KSP at the time. Came across this beauty!

It's a 1945 Singer sewing machine with original carry case and key - worth a fair bit (especially since i picked it up free!)

Edit: It's not worth more because i got it for free.... Haha! The profit margin is huge, is what i meant!

I also came across both of these drumsets.... at two separate houses... god knows!
Theyre both in complete working condition! Just had to throw some batteries in!

Along with this mint little crt! It has a strange power jack which i'm going to try swap out for a conventional 3-pin cable.

I picked this lot up off gumtree (australia's equivalent to craigslist):
What's not in the photo is about 25 original xbox controllers and about 10 psx/ps2 controllers, along with hundreds of AC/DC adapters and RCA cords .etc. This was a crazy find! I almost couldn't fit everything in my car!

Here's a list of what's inside:

Not sure if ebay counts, but i managed to pick this beast of an auction up for $100. If you can't see it properly, there's a Nintendo Power Memory cart in there smile))!
