Topic: can the gameboy pocket be modded in exactly the same way as the DMG? (3 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)

Hey guys, ive just noticed recently that pockets are going for a fair bit cheaper than dmg's on eBay and I was just wondering whether they worked and could be modded exactly the same as the DMG? Thanks

Thanks guys it's good to know I wasn't alone here, I'll definitely have to get into that habit of adjusting the contrast wheel And thanks again for the advice about rubbing alcohol. Actually, the combination of tutorials I saw basically suggested spit and elbow grease Real men's men they were. I ended up using a slightly wet soapy cloth, trying to be very careful, but still couldn't get all of the sticky residue off, so thanks for the compliment BroFoSho! I'm glad it looks okay

Topic: So... did I stuff it? (6 replies, posted in Nintendo Handhelds)

Hey guys, so I was pretty excited to hack my first DMG! I decided to start off small and just put in a backlight and some LED's for now, but I just tested out the backlight then and the screen is kaput.. like it's not giving me any kind of signal at all? I didn't rip any of the ribbons - but I may have got them a little wet when I tried to clean the stick off from the old screen-back (that aluminum foil kind of stuff). A youtube video said even the slightest bit of moisture on there was a no-no. So I did try to be really careful.. but I wanted to make sure with you guys, just to see if anyone has seen this kind of thing before and it IS fixable and perchance my screen isn't stuffed from the bit of water i did get on it.
If not, it looks like it's back to square one.
Thanks!

<< here's what it looks like
and it doesn't matter which way I turn the polarising film layer to face, it always ends up with the same result.

Re: Can I ask your guys' opinion? (9 replies, posted in General Discussion)

Thanks guys, really appreciate the feedback, you've given me some really good advice What I mean by 'hacking' is along the lines of backlighting, like you mentioned Alpine, but also putting in things like ps/2 connector, pitch mod, internal LED's and stuff like that, but yeah maybe 'hacking' wasn't the right word, perhaps 'modding'? Just the first time I saw a modded gameboy like that I thought it was the coolest thing ever.
Defiantsystems is this goattracker - http://cadaver.homeftp.net/tools.htm ? Can you tell me more about it?
But yes, overall time to stop going back and forth between trackers/programs and start making chip!

Topic: Can I ask your guys' opinion? (9 replies, posted in General Discussion)

Hey guys, I posted this in the introduction thread but it probably wasn't the place to do so, so I thought I'd try here. Basically my current options for making chip are lsdj on gbd until I hack my gameboy, but I also have milkytracker and ableton 9 with 8bit vsts and packs...which brings me to a question, what would be the best way to go about making chip music? Is ableton the obvious choice between it and milky? And can you hook up lsdj with ableton?
Thanks guys, much appreciated.

Re: Welcome to CM.O! (Introduction Thread) (676 replies, posted in General Discussion)

Hey guys I'm gr3yh4m3. So far I have a couple of options for making tunes: I have lsdj on gbd until I hack my gameboy, but I also have milkytracker and ableton 9 with 8bit vsts and packs...which brings me to a question, what would be the best way to go about making chip music? Is ableton the obvious choice between it and milky? And can you hook up lsdj with ableton? Thanks, and sorry for the newb questions.
